Touching Story: A Selfless Student Ask Her Father to Buy Her the Cheapest Cellphone Instead of the More Pricey Ones
Nowadays, There’s nothing new to see even gradeschoolers having the most recent cell phones. Having a cell phone that has all the in vogue luxuries — a great selfie camera, Wi-Fi and versatile information, and so forth — has turned into a need for the greater part of us that it has turned out to be hard to envision life without our mobile companion. This touching story of a Grade 11 student from the Philippines, in any case, helps us to remember the simplicity with beauty, Buying what is really important in life, and adhering to what we need rather than what we wants.
“Just wanted to share…this grade 11 student is looking for a phone ranging from 2,500 to 3,500 so I offer several units that would fit her budget…maybe others would choose the 3,500 since the specs is higher and so is the camera…as she check the unit she’s always looking sideways to her father…”
While most of us would probably ask for the most expensive phone that is within budget, the young girl was mature enough to know that even the cheapest phone could work just the same — especially if she just needs one for the basic need of communication.
“She made a choice she bought the least expensive one the 1,500..I was looking at her smiled and it melt my heart how she puts too much emphasis to her father of what they could afford other than being a brat in choosing the expensive one..this girl of this caliber would go far…God bless you who ever you are for having a good heart to your parents and such a great example for young generations now a days….”
The girl was obviously more concerned about her father than herself. Instead of selfishly asking for his father’s full budget (no matter how meager), she chose the cheapest option so that there may still be some money left after she got the phone she needed.
Netizens were inspired by the schoolgirl’s contentment and selflesness. Really, her story gives a new viewpoint on what happiness is all about. A more costly telephone could have made her more joyful, yet she imparted the joy to her dedicated father, and chose not to request excessively.
