These little ones..

Sitting in the car, here I saw a little girl in her seven or eight years old washing plate at the back alley of a coffee shop. She stood up and poured the pail of water with all her strenght, with the amount which I am not able to pour or even carry at her age. All the plates, spoon, chopstick, and bowl fall into another red basket, some fell on the road side. I didnt know if she had them wash properly. But i guess the little girl herself didnt know if it is dirty. Yes..She is very young, i have to said. A little boy came, steal her little chair away quietly trying to bully her. She then came to realised what he had done to her when she was about to sit. Both of them started arguing then, she looked at the maid who were as well washing the plates for her owner, but that maid ignored. What a pitiful life such a young kid need to go through, at her very young age. Looking at her, pictures of little kids going to kindergarden, and then back home after class playing their favourite toys indoor, with full attention paid by their family members. I came to realise how different a life of a little children will be due to the background they came from.
Ain't little children need to be in school, enjoying their toys, having enough good food and rest..and as well get loads of love, care and attention from their parents. But why?Why are these kids washing plates at the back alley of a coffee shop?Why are these kids selling fruits or tarts at the night market with their parents? These kids look cheerful. Always smiling even with sweats streaming down their face or body. They already get use to it of what they are doing eversince they are so young. But still, i hope all this little kids can get to enjoy a better life. And ofcourse, i know my hope will not come true, as each and every person are born with a different life...I have to said, god is fair. He must have his own reason for giving these little child tougher life...Amen.God Bless :)!
