Just a few hours ago, I was cramped inside the Tamaraw FX i take going to work every morning. In my head I was cursing the driver because he drove like a madman! If taxi drivers are scum of the earth, FX Drivers are probably the world's most frustrated race car drivers. hehehe! To continue my story, the driver was talking to a passenger seated beside him. This passenger, an old woman was obviously a "regular" because they knew each other pretty well already. He was telling the woman that he was out jogging with a friend last week and that he found a month old baby boy. He said that he heard the baby crying and it was quite impossible for it to come from a nearby house because they were under a bridge. Then he saw it. The baby was inside a box with just a blanket on (just like in the movies). He picked it up and went straight to a health center and had it cleaned. The baby turned out to be so beautiful and handsome that he was just mesmerized. Some friend of his saw the infant and wanted to buy it from him (can you imagine that?!?!) but he decided to keep the kid because he considers it his lucky charm. How heartwarming...

I've always believed that there is innate good in each one of us and I guess i just proved that today. Even if that driver curses like there's no tomorrow, drives like he's in a race track and is occasionally oblivious of passengers saying "Para na po!!!" (in ENGLISH: "This is my stop!"/"I'm getting down!"), he's a good man because he took that baby in. Ü
