A Letter to the Bubble Boy
Dear Seth,
You are a very brave boy, and that
is what we 1000+ (?) students and staff of Taylor’s College Sri Hartamas, Kuala
Lumpur, Malaysia collectively think.
We simply could not fathom how extraordinary
your little spirit is. You represent the best of humanity by having the courage
to endure, to persevere, to hope again even after all those sufferings.
Of course on 27th
March, many of us showed up in yellow, your favourite colour. Yellow shirts,
yellow trousers, yellow jackets. It cheered us up too when we knew this simple
gesture can lift your spirits up.
It is quite a good colour, you
see, it reminds people of a lot of good things: afternoon sunlight on pavements,
sunflowers in full bloom, and even cute little Minions in their “Underwear”
song.
When you need to look at our
pictures, do remember this: it is an honour, and privilege to be able to wear
yellow for you. It is remarkable to know that superheroes are not just strong,
tough men, but little children too. And you are our hero!
Stay brave, little man, and get
well soon! Our thoughts and prayers will always be with you and your family.
Love,
Everyone in Taylor’s
College Sri Hartamas
