The tuk tuk driver I just had asked, as always, if I wanted
a tuk tuk tomorrow to visit the temples. I politely declined saying,
"Sorry, no temples tomorrow; I'm a volunteer." He said,"Oh
teacher?" as most volunteers are teachers. When I said, "No, I help to
make water filters." He excitedly said, "Oh! You help to bring the
water to the countryside?" Excited that he understood what I meant, as
many don't, I said "Yes!" He replied, "Oh, very thank you for
your kind (kindness)!" And to you Mr. Tuk Tuk Man, I say: Thank you for
your appreciation & for restoring my faith in tuk tuk guys - you're not all
pushy salespeople harassing passersby for rides, some of you are genuinely
great people :)

Lewis) >>> "I don't know where I am going, but I am on my way." (Voltaire) >>> "Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round heads in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules and they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify them, or vilify them. But the only thing you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And though some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world are the ones who do." (Apple)
