本地义工组织“让希望活下去”分享,他们在进行家访时,协助一位知足老奶奶的经历。让网民们备受感动,纷纷表示乐意提供协助。

网友Lee Siew Yian于本月10日上载有关帖文,分享了他们在两天前(8日)傍晚,假明地迷亚路(BENDEMEER ROAD)附近组屋进行家访行动时,震惊于这一对老夫妇所面对的困境,并感动于老奶奶的知足行为。

老夫妇家徒四壁

她指出,当天她和友人到老夫妇家进行访问时,惊见家中地板空空的,没有床铺等,不禁问老奶奶晚上如何过夜的事情。

“我在很‘薄’的床铺上过夜,我的先生在椅子上睡觉。”

老奶奶的回答令网友感到心疼,就表示该组织有送出新的床铺,而且是单人尺寸的,就问老奶奶需要几个。

网友在发问后,还不禁自嘲明知故问,岂知老奶奶只表示“要一个”。

网友当下就无言了,只拿起笔和纸写下了“两个”。

Lee Siew Yian在帖文中也分享了两张相信是老奶奶住家单位的状况,首张图中只见墙壁已经脱漆了,而第二张则是老奶奶说的,很 “薄” 的床铺。

网友表示,在家访活动中会遇见各种各样的人士,有好的、坏的、感恩的、贪婪的。

“我们不能指望每个人都在获得我们帮助时,对我们态度良好、会感激我们或者赞扬我们,我们不应该期待任何回报,更不可以因为‘坏或贪婪的人’,而不做善事。”

他指出,“我们只是尽我们所能,做我们能够做的事。我们诚心给予帮助,希望送出的东西也带着我们的祝福”。

他也感激所有的受益者,让他们觉得自己获得有价值,且获得行善的快乐,并呼吁人们参与该组织的志愿团队。

该组织志愿者也表示,将在下个月的15日进行下一次的床垫派送活动,涵盖的区域包括从桥北路到菜市、亨德森波浪人行桥、美玲路、荷兰村以及新民。

有关的帖文很快获得人们响应,共有1300人做出反应,65人留下评论,以及685人分享。

网民纷纷对网友的善举按赞,并表示乐于提供帮助,欲了解所需要的详情等。

Dave Tan则分享了他助人的经验,指他在公共部门工作期间,曾遇见和有精神病儿子同住在马西岭一间出租单位的一名七旬老人。

老爷爷当时拨电求助,因为他的儿子不愿意到心理卫生学院就医,并且对老人家拳打脚踢。

老人家当时在附近的咖啡厅担任洗碗零工,每个月只赚取300到400元。

网友当时无视了其上司的命令,将老人和其儿子送到学院去,并且想帮老人家买单,但是遭拒绝了。

老人家用福建话说道,“我很高兴你把我们送到这里,其余的问题,我还有能力应付。”

这让他意识到,较为穷苦的人们中,大多都是善良人士。
