Amusement Parks Are Better When Shared

Liam sampling the culture in Dubai.

Businessman Liam Murphy, from Bandon in Cork, Ireland, was on a week-long business trip to Dubai for a week. He was there negotiating a distributorship for a new product that his company made, and although he was making strides forward, he decided he needed a break.

So, he decided to spend a day at Ferrari World amusement park. He grabbed a cab to get there and on the way, he had a conversation with driver Shakiha, originally from India. Shakiha had been working in the Arab Emirates for fourteen years and, because he saved his money to send back to his family in India, he had never been inside the amusement park.



Usually, though, Shakiha was used to spending time in the area because he'd have to wait an average of about four hours for his passengers to return. That didn't sound exactly fair to Liam, so he bought an admission ticket for Shakiha, who got to spend the day with his passenger.

Shakiha was a brave sport about it all, too. For one thing, he had never ridden a roller coaster, and Liam persuaded him to take a ride on the one in the park, one of the world's fastest. But Shakiha's stomach was a little shaky about it, as he said to Liam, "I do not feel well sir." Other than the shaky stomach, though, the day went pretty well.

Rumor has it that both Liam and Shakiha had a good time together. Liam said, "I bought him some pizza on the way home. His family are in India and he says he sends money home each month. I felt sorry for him."

Liam take Shakiha on his first roller coaster ride.

What was Shakiha's review of his very special day? He stated, "I will pray God for you sir." It doesn't take much to treat those who offer their services with kindness. And above all, do like Liam did, recognize that person as a fellow human being.

Shakiha got to check out some of the Ferraris on display.
