Sometimes, all it takes, is those words, "hello", "how are you today?", to save a life…the act of kindness from the bus driver, something positive, off of the Newspapers, translated…
The bus driver, Kang in Taichung had been working as a bus driver for six years, and this is the fourth time he'd been awarded the Golden Transport Award", and the words he'd most frequently said to his passengers are, "careful, hold on, the bus is about to start", there was a student who wrote, told that he had been overwhelmed with the academic that he felt upset, but the driver had greeted the student with smiles in the morn when he got on, and it'd, lifted up his moods, and changed his, life, "he saved my life!" Kang told, treating my passengers as my friends, I drive the "Happiness Bus" every day for work.
There are a total of eighteen bus companies in Taichung, about 1,500 drivers hired, there were 8,500 rounds; the head of traffic department of the city of Taichung, Yeh told, that recently, there'd been the major accidents and the bad services, but, most of the drivers are all very, hard working, as they go out.

The driver from Tong-Lien Bus Company, Kang believed, that caring is in everyday life. He'd made the example of how as a handicapped passenger was riding on his bus, he'd taken three minutes to help the individuals buckle their wheelchairs in, to keep them safe and secure, and it'd decreased the time for them to get onto the bus, and normally, the other passengers would not rush him to drive off, instead, they'd tell him, "no worries, take your time", showing him the kindness too.
Kang started driving the buses six years ago, and there was a commuting student who'd written him, told him that he'd been overwhelmed with the pressures of school, but as he saw him greeting him with smiles, that gave him some hope in his life; in his letter, the student wrote, "Since I met you, I'd been trying to change myself, in the future, I will, strive for being the worker with the best attitude", "You had not only changed my attitude toward life, you'd, saved my life too on that day. After so much time has passed, I still can't forget how warmly you'd, greeted me that morning."
Kang said, that he'd driven his bus, with the mindset of "I'm operating the Happiness Bus", and didn't expect the cycle of kindness that's started from him. He'd told, as he'd begun working as a bus driver, his families worried that he may be tiring himself out, but he believed, that he's paid, just as well as the regular nine-to-five office workers, and enjoyed the interactions with his customers, and, as he was awarded the "Golden Transport" by the Department of Transportation, he saw how proud his father was of him, he was really happy, that "I didn't let my father down".
And so, this, is how this driver spread the positive energies he felt in his work, to others around him, and because he carried such a positive attitude around him, those around him, those whom he came to interact with daily, are all going to be, affected by his positive attitude that he carried toward his own, work, and he'd, spread the cycle of kindness out to others.
