Learn to Appreciate
Once upon a time, there was a man who was very helpful, kindhearted, and
generous. He was a man who will help someone without asking anything to pay
him back. He will help someone because he wants to and he loves to. One day
while walking into a dusty road, this man saw a purse, so he picked it up and
noticed that the purse was empty. Suddenly a woman with a policeman shows up
and gets him arrested.
The woman kept on asking where did he hide her money but the man replied, "It
was empty when I found it, Mam." The woman yelled at him, "Please give it back,
It's for my son's school fees." The man noticed that the woman really felt sad, so
he handed all his money. He could say that the woman was a single mother. The
man said, "Take these, sorry for the inconvenience." The woman left and
policeman held he man for further questioning.
The woman was very happy but when she counted her money later on, it was
doubled, she was shocked. One day while woman was going to pay her son's
school fees towards the school, she noticed that some skinny man was walking
behind her. She thought that he may rob her, so she approached a policeman
standing nearby. He was the same policeman, who she took along to inquire
about her purse. The woman told him about the man following her, but suddenly
they saw that man collapsing. They ran at him, and saw that he was the same
man whom they arrested few days back for stealing a purse.
He looked very weak and woman was confused. The policeman said to the
woman, "He didn't return your money, he gave you his money that day. He wasn't
the thief but hearing about you son's school fees, he felt sad and gave you his
money." Later, they helped man stand up, and man told the woman, "Please go
ahead and pay your son's school fees, I saw you and followed you to be sure that
no one steals your son's school fees." The woman was speechless.
Moral: Life gives you strange experiences, sometime it shocks you and sometimes
it may surprise you. We end up making wrong judgments or mistakes in our anger,
desperation and frustration. However, when you get a second chance, correct
your mistakes and return the favor. Be Kind and Generous. Learn to Appreciate
what you are given.
