Day 5



Location: Surathani

Running distance covered: 628.6 kms.

Started late today...  Still tired from yesterday's ride.
Bananas for breakfasts....
Cycled fast to make up for the late start.
Remembered a saintly man's teaching....
As i cycle i remember part a teaching of a wise man. He said that mankind has not yet realized the true meaning of "society". According to him the real essence of society is to march together in unison, that no one should be left lagging behind.
Baan Dada Children's Home strikes to practice those teaching by providing opportunities to study in a university or technical school not only for the children in our home but to deserving children in surrounding communities. What better way to help those who are unfortunate by empowering them through knowledge,  through education.
I am deeply grateful to those who supported this cycling for education. Your support Will make a big difference in those children's lives.
3:00 pm:   decided to stop cycling only when it is getting dark.
Getting tired... and talking to myself:
You better stay well on the very side of the road Richard...
yeah, sure i will, dada.
Better to be safe than sorry Rick, many fast moving vehicles just 2 meters from you.....
Okay, okay, i will be careful dada..
7:00 pm.... Rest... laundry work.... Phoned the children.... Happy to hear their voices. Thank you Mayuree, May, and Tiphawan for your concern.... and to let you and all the children know that  "NOT A DAY GOES BY THAT I NEVER THINK OF YOU!"
