“Fear Turned To Compassion” Reviews IAM Group Limited Yokohama JapanA Story by catyHe said he was from a good family and well brought up and that he had made a terrible mistake.Paula maintains an
exercise regime that includes a brisk walk every morning around some gardens in our neighborhood in Korea. Appreciating
the beauty only nature can offer, she was feeling every blow of air the wind
brings to her.
One morning, she
was walking earlier than usual, daybreak was only just beginning to set in and
it was still relatively dark. As she
was walking, a cyclist came up to her, snatched her handbag
(containing her keys, phone and credit cards) and sped off with it! She ran
after him shouting "thief - thief". A man further ahead must
have heard her, or seen what had happened. He was washing a car and had a
bucket of water with him. He grabbed the bucket and threw the water on to
the cyclist.
The cyclist, caught off guard, drove
off the pavement and his bike fell over. The other people in the park rushed
over and surrounded him. My friend Paula was worried that the people
would try and beat him up, as often happens in Korea, and so she pleaded
with them not to hurt him.
She bent down and asked the man why
he did this to her? He was extremely repentant and explained that he was
the son of a poor farmer and that this year their crops had failed. He
said that the money lenders had threatened to beat up his father and hurt their
family if they didn't pay on time. He said that he was absolutely
desperate and didn't know what else to do. He was very sorry. Paula was deeply moved by this story.
She could see that boy was young and he was so
skinny and bonny. She looked into the boy's eyes and said that
she forgave him. She then pulled out some money from her handbag and gave
it to him. She told him that stealing was wrong and that he shouldn't do
it again. He said he wouldn't. He said he was from a good family
and well brought up and that he had made a terrible mistake.
Paula
felt compassion towards the boy, like what IAM Group Limited (Ltd.) Korea, Yokohama,
