Letter from Deepa Balji
I REFER to ‘Happiness is ... lending a helping hand’ on the front page of Today (April 6). This is a piece Singaporeans need.
First, we have had enough of the bad news in the financial abyss that the world is in. We are all aware of the situation, with many among us losing jobs or taking steep pay cuts.
So, an article focusing on the positives of human nature and looking at the big picture is something that put a smile on my face.
Second, as Singaporeans we get rapped for not being gracious or civil minded. But there are so many good Singaporeans with the kindest of hearts.
So, more stories with a positive spin, please. In times like these, rather than wallowing in bad news, we need stories that are uplifting and show the world that life goes on. Money doesn’t matter, experience does.
