A girl who is YOUNG in age, but MATURED in thinking and CARING in her heart!

I chanced upon a student currently studying in a tertiary institution, matured enough to be engaged in a sensible discussion with me. She is distinctively different from many other students her age. I should say she is emotionally intelligent and certainly has what it takes to be successful in life and at work.

As I was sharing my personal learning experience with her, she was listening attentively and interactively throughout the entire conversation, with great interest. She was keen to learn. Personally, I am always impressed with people with such positive learning attitudes.

In fact, she impressed me further by being a person with good heart. She felt burdened in wanting to help her brother just two years younger than she is, and was sharing her heartfelt desire and hoping that her brother would come to his senses and devote more time to his studies instead of drifting away in his current state. She was silent for a while, lost in thought, staring at the cover of my book, when trying to describe his brother.

She suddenly felt that it might be a good idea to use my book as a present for her younger brother, subtly trying to help encourage him to get out of his present circumstances. It is heartening to see a young girl having such a matured thinking, caring so much for a sibling just two years younger.

I hope the younger brother would be touched and moved, hopefully he would stop drifting away from reality and start living his life productively, knowing that his sister feels and cares so much for him.
