if one day a spell is caste on singapore and all singaporeans out a sudden, overnight, becomes truly gracious. All Singaporeans meaning young and old, educated and uneducated, you and me etc...like the bus driver, taxi driver, the road sweepers, hawkers, commuters of public transport, housewives of school going kids, educated managers of MNCs, CEOs, your boss, colleagues, superiors etc etc etc...
Gracious means:
marked by kindness and courtesy, GRACEFUL, marked by tact and delicacy,
characterized by charm, good taste, generosity of spirit, and the tasteful leisure of wealth and good breeding
this spirit of caring and sharing truly comes from our heart and
this graciousness is on par with the cream or top 10% of the most gracious people in Europe for example,
what will be the major changes you will see in your everyday life?
for example taking transport, people will automatically queue up.
or at work etc.
does it also mean we won't be so money minded anymore..
i believe people won't be so Kiasu, that would be wonderful.
there will no longer be discrimination of people taking on less glamorous jobs.
it will also be more fun working in customer service line.
how much are you earning a month?
Do you know how much you need to pay the bill each month.
Is not being money minded, is more of trying to pay the bill each month.
Prices are increasing each month but our pay is still the say.
Each of us need money to surive not that we want to work but we have to.
