因为生活

为老家的生活费,为了让孩子们可以过得好一些;她们离开了家园。

我所妙术的是一班我昨天在建筑地盘看到的印尼女工。她们在赤热的太阳下搬大石,做泥工。心里浮现莫名的心酸,觉得如果上天也看见此刻的画面是否也会开始怜惜她们呢?

总觉得若她们家境是好些的,谁也不想那么辛苦。对一个女人来说,美是多么的重要。但往往为了生活,她们舍下美的权利,为家而牺牲了。比较起来,我已经很幸福。

我站在原地看了好一阵子, 午餐时候到了。由于是Puasa,她们没吃,纷纷找了个地方坐下休息。其中一个,随手铺下张大塑胶带就爬着睡了。泪水轻轻在我眼眶打滚,静静不打扰的离开了。

For the sake of family, they left their beloved home & came abroad.

I was at one of sites yesterday for joint valuation,I saw a group of female Indonesian workers carrying big stone & doing concreting. Suddenly felt pity to see them working underneath the hot sun. If God see this from above, will he too dishearten by the situation?

I was thinking, if their family are more well to do, they don't need to be there. Beauty is a pride & important for a women, but for them..they gave up their beauty for the sake of their love ones. The more i see them, i consider myself very fortunate for what i've now.

I stood there for awhile until it was lunch hour. Due to fasting month, all workers are not having their routine lunch. Instead they look for a place to sit down & rest. Again, i saw a lady; she took a torn plastic cover, placed it on the floor & slept. My eyes slowly with tears, i walk off quietly without disturbing her nap.
