manong guard

yesterday, I saw a familiar face, Manong guard from elementary..I wasn't expecting that he'd still remember me, but to my surprise, he remembered not only my face but also my name!! I felt appreciated that time..he also noted that I was the valedictorian of my class..It's really overwhelming. Because of that, I realized that, sometimes the simple things you do, can leave memories that would last to people you encounter each day.Maybe, Manong guard remember me whenever I pass by the gate or whenever I smiled and say goodbye to my friends or to him just to show my gesture of respect..this discovery taught me to always lokk back, acknowledge people whom I met from the past and never feel akward in showing my appreciation.
