On the afternoon that i was leaving london to come home, i bumped into the greek man. He was smiling and walked briskly towards me. I thought him a word once when he wanted to warn me abou the dangers of the world : ” Be careful” and he used it all the time to warn me. I think he was worried about me but i was worried about him. His job hunt had been unsuccessful the past few days and he was didn’t get the call he had been waiting for. However, on this day, he told me he is “full happy” because he got the job at the greek tavern. Not wanting him to waste a single pence on me, i rejected his offer to buy me tea or coffee. 

I can’t help but think about how blessed i am and i can’t help but cry about how this man has taught me so much even though he is 13000km away.
