I pretended to myself that I forgot, well, he definately forgot, but I didn't actually forget of course. I couldn't find any reason why not each people just pick up their own joobo and fold it in half. Frankly , perhaps, I thought that was obsolete request. even he is the pastor. Today, I met an Elder of my church at church. And he was folding joobo! So I was about to express how stupid it is to fold them one by one by one person instead of letting each person do that for his/her own copy, u know... Before I began a word (I thank God that I didn't tell him any of *my* stupid thought), he told me he came to church on Saturday to check if hymn numbers in the board is correct or not and also take care of other stuffs. He just does it by himself not to blame other people not doing it. And he said he is folding joobo because he wants to *serve* people at church. He is absolutely right. I was ashamed.. That is a little thing I can do. I was thinking how inefficient it is to use human labor (i assumed my labor hour should be high if I get paid since i am in grad school) for that kind of mere simple little tiny job. nah.... I forgot one great thing. to serve people. all in all, the elder is a doctor. In the matter of money, his work hour should be way way higher than mine.... He came to the states even before I was born. Writing this, I get to miss my grandfather in Korea. I used to be afraid of him, since he got this thick black eyebrow. :) Last time I saw him was 2 years ago, he looked weak. I am visiting him this summer. I am gonna give him a big hug. |
