Sa ating panahon ngayon, napaka konti na lang ang mga taong totoong mapapagkatiwalaan at mayroong malinis na intensyon. Lalung-lalo na kapag ikaw ay nakawala ng isang napakaimportanteng gamit. Maliit ang tyansa na maibabalik pa sayo ang nawala mo (lalo na siguro kung pera ito). At sinuswerte ka na lang talaga kung maibabalik pa sayo ito ng buong buo.  Paano na lang kung mahigit isang milyong piso ang nawala mo o naiwan mo sa isang pampublikong sasakyan? Mataas ang tyansa na hindi na maibabalik sayo ito dahil sa dami ng taong may masamang balak at nangangailangan ng pera pambayad sa mga utang, malamang ay itatakbo na nila ito. Ibahin natin ang kwento ng isang 50 taong gulang na babaeng bus conductor na ito sa Thailand, na nakikilala bilang Summon Matidul.  Isang pasaherong lalaki ang sumakay sa kanyang pinagtatrabahuhang bus, ngunit nang bumaba ito ay may naiwan siyang isang bag sa kanyang kinaupuan. Laking gulat ni Matidul noong makita niy...

Naranasan mo na bang sumagi sa isipan mo ang mga salitang, "Tinatamad na akong magtrabaho!" At imbes na sa nagtatrabaho ka nalang ng mabuti ay dinadaan mo pa ito sa puro reklamo.  Isipin mo na lang ang dinaranas nang taong ito araw-araw. Hindi madaling magtinda sa kalye, lalo na't mainit at maraming sasakyan. Mas lalong hindi madali ang maglako ng paninda kung ikaw ay may kapansanan. Ayon sa Facebook post ng isang netizen na si A.

He even helped the kids unwrap their food and fed the youngest kid so she could eat properly. While eating, they engaged in a co...

It was not so long ago when the story of a jeepney driver giving free rides to students went viral on social media. This is another incident that went viral online showcasing how really selfless our jeepney drivers are. A certain Facebook user identified as Joseph Mejia, shared how he was inspired by the kind and selfless act of this old jeepney driver. According to him, he left his flash drive at home so he decided to ride the jeepney to go back and get it. When he was going to pay for the fare, he found out that he has left his wallet and no money to pay the old man.

He was touched that the driver was an old man only doing his job to earn a living.  So he made the guts to admit his mistake and approached the elderly driver.  Joseph: Manong, wala ho ...
