Auntie almost made me cry

Worked in polyclinic pharmacy for 2 years already
Countless heart-warming moments encountered ever since
Being put in such an environment is surely a blessing

Sometimes, the blessings are so huge that I felt like the community is serving me rather than the opposite
Life lessons are learnt almost everyday if you're willing to open up your eyes and heart to see and to feel

A moment of heartache almost always occurs to me when I have to hand over a huge bag of medications to an elderly uncle or auntie over the dispensing counter, while having the thoughts of them digging deep into their pockets to pay for those bitter and intimidating pieces of perceived life saving pills
Why do people need to work so hard their whole life only to reach this stage?
Is that the whole point of life-savings?
If you lack optimism in your life, learn from our uncles and aunties here...they taught me that!

Tears filled up my eyes
Thousand of thoughts rushed through my minds
When this auntie express her gratitude for what I have done few months ago and forgotten about
Trying to "make a difference" is our motto
But I guess this time, auntie made a difference instead
"ahboy you saved me..."
..."no auntie, you saved me!"

Isaiah 58:10-11
and if you spend yourselves in behalf of the hungry and satisfy the needs of the oppressed, then your light will rise in the darkness, and your night will become like the noonday. The Lord will guide you always; he will satisfy your needs in a sun-scorched land and will strengthen your frame. You will be like a well-watered garden, like a spring whose waters never fail.
