Sajid Bulig

I can say "I can be a man for others", "I can serve my fellowmen", but do I really know how to serve? Do I really take time to ask myself: "Have I done something for others? Oftentimes, I praise myself for thing I do which I find selfless. However, I do good to benefit my own interests!
Sajid Bulig, a 13 years old 6th grader who courageously saved the children he had seen being devoured into the depths of the river, when suddenly, a plank of wood fell from the collapsed shrine, hitting him on the head which caused the end of his young life. His sense of responsibility and concern for others made him choose to save those people instead of himself. It is a selfless act of love of a person who gave up his life so that others may live.
I am surprised that there is still kind of person with a pure heart and unconditional love to others that can do that kind of big responsibility at the young age. I don't know if I can do what he did but I don't want to be negative and to end my world just to be a nonsense woman. I see a glimpse of hope but I can look forward to. For now i'm just a kid in this world but I realise even i'm just a kid I can do something to help others in the way I want to express my love and concern to them. I admit to myself, i'm not a kind of person that is diligent, industrious or anything with a good attitude. Sometimes, I don't mind, appreciate something value in a small or other things. But Sajid Bulig, explain to me the importance of these things in this world and doing good to others even if it is small or big. I didn't know how much mean to them if our hands are always open for them. I know that Bulig was already dead but the thing he did was reminds me up. He showed to me that not only rich and prominent people can serve to others but all of us can do that. No one can take away the happiness we can brought to them. He encourage me to dream that will give my life a purpose and it is already started being a good student and child to my parents and someday I can apply it to others. He inspired me to be like him. In following his footstep, that is making a difference in the lives of others in my own simple ways. I can be anything, anyone that I choose. Instead of improving my talents and skills to glorify and give things to God, my life is wasted due to self satisfaction and the quest for earthly pleasure. I realize that helping others we can discover the true happiness in this world. It is first and formost our duty to take care of all things that God endowed us with that includes the human life.
