A story about the man who was trying to make world better

I firstly heard of Brendi when I was 4 years old. One sunny weekend took me my father to moto-cross competition and there was also Brendi with his singing group. When I heard his first song, I immediately knew that his voice and music is something special. When I was 10 years old I decided to start karate lessons.  By chance I met there some tall boy called Dejan. We became very good friends and some rainy day at karate Dejan had said to me that he wanted to introduce me to his father and then he added that his father is a famous singer Brendi. I was so astonished, that I didn't get any words out of myself.

 

 3 days later they invited me to a dinner in their home. When I came Brendi and Dejan had already been waiting for me. Despite that he didn't know me, he jumped into my lap and he hugged me like we were old friends. This was the first genuine event, when I have really recognized how benevolent person he is. For a dinner we had delicious turkey and after dinner Brendi invited me to go with him on the national tour. I absolutely immediately assented him.

10 days later we met ourselves in front of the railway station in Ljubljana. He came with van and our tour could start. Firstly he had a concert in Celje and then in Maribor, Ptuj.........Always again he astounded me with his cheerfulness and his humility. We had almost concluded our tour, when some guy asked him, if he could have his last concert in Murska Sobota. As he couldn't say no, he decided to have his final concert in this tour in Murska Sobota. Next day when the concert took place, gathered there quite a lot of spectators. Everything was fine till the concert finished. When we were on our way to the van, Brendi heard a child's cry. He turned round and ran to the first dustbin. When he opened it, he saw a little dirty boy crying in it. Brendi asked him for his name and what is he doing there. He answered him that his name is Korado and he is homeless person and had nowhere to go. Brendi hugged him and said that he could go with him. I have seen a lot, but this was too much for me, so I started to cry. Brendi really took him home and they became not only best friends, but also best duo singers in Slovenia. I'm telling You a story of a man, who was trying to make our world better.
