Touching Story with A Taxi Driver (Nov 4, 2007)

I was in Surabaya to accompany Dr. HF for tumor surgery using our ultrasonic aspirator.

To go to airport, I used taxi. It was still morning. On my way to airport, the taxi driver started a conversation with me.
He asked me the purpose in Surabaya, etc. He was a nice person, so I didn't mind entertain his conversation.
I told him about my work, my family (parents and sister). He was empathy to hear my story. He said I'm blessed.

Then he told me his story.
He regret for what he did in the past. He was a naughty boy, disobeyed parents, was a rebel. He went to the best school, didn't study good. He dropped out. While his siblings are college graduates. He felt embarrassed whenever the family gathers.
He's living difficult life now with his own family. His kids start going to school and all.

At the end, he prayed for me and wish me all the best. It was a touching moment.
