Thousand miles journey

ehem.. few years back when i was in Canbera there was an old man in his 80's who often came to college with his old car bringing cookies and hot choc drinks for all student. he will comes every weekend and served us n the best part is... its free. so it becomes a routine for us seeing this old man and i did asked him once why he gave free cookies and drinks to us. he said.. he love watching young boys and girls eating.. coz he can't eat much anymore. he will greet each of us and smile.. and i cant forget his smile until now.. it is smile that u know came from a sincere heart n love. he didnt expect anything for return.. sometimes i spent few minutes talking to him whilst enjoyin my hot choc and great variety of cookies (always had full of plate).. n i noticed this old man will talked lengthy to any kid n the way he speaks u can sensed his enthuasism in his husky old voice. its been 17 yrs since my departure with this great man.. maybe hes not around anymore in Canberrra but he always in my heart....
