A STORY THAT TOUCHED MY HEART...


THIS IS SAID TO BE A TRUE STORY THAT
HAPPENED IN INDIA.
.
PLEASE READ...!
I was walking around in a Big Bazar store making
shopping,
when I saw a Cashier talking to a boy couldn't
have been more than 5 or 6 years old..
.
The Cashier said, "I'm sorry, but you don't have
enough money to buy this doll."
.
Then the little boy turned to me and asked: ''Uncle,
are you sure I don't have enough money?''
.
I counted his cash and replied: ''You know that you
don't have enough money to buy the doll, my
dear.''
.
The little boy was still holding the doll in his hand.
.
Finally, I walked toward him and I asked him who
he wished to give this doll to.
.
"It's the doll that my sister loved most and wanted
so much . I wanted to Gift her for her BIRTHDAY.
I have to give the doll to my mommy so that she
can give it to my sister when she goes there."
.
His eyes were so sad while saying this. My Sister
has gone to be with God..
Daddy says that Mommy is going to see God very
soon too, so I thought that she could take the doll
with her to give it to my sister...''
.
My heart nearly stopped. The little boy looked up
at me and said: "I told daddy to tell mommy not to
go yet. I need her to wait until I come back from
the mall."
.
Then he showed me a very nice photo of him
where he was laughing. He then told me, "I want
mommy to take my picture with her so my sister
won't forget me."
"I love my mommy and I wish she doesn't have to
leave me, but daddy says that she has to go to be
with my little sister."
.
Then he looked again at the doll with sad eyes,
very quietly...
.
I quickly reached for my wallet and said to the boy,
"Suppose we check again, just in case you do have
enough money for the doll?''
.
'OK' he said, 'I hope I do have enough.' I added
some of my money to his with out him seeing and
we started to count it.
.
There was enough for the doll and even some
spare money.
.
The little boy said: "Thank you God for giving me
enough money!"
.
Then he looked at me and added, "I asked last
night before I went to sleep for God to make sure I
had
enough money to buy this doll, so that mommy
could give It to my sister. He heard me!''
"I also wanted to have enough money to buy a
white rose for my mommy, but I didn't dare to ask
God for too much. But He gave me enough to buy
the doll and a white rose. My mommy loves white
roses." .
I finished my shopping in a totally different state
from when I started. I couldn't get the little boy out
of my mind.
.
Then I remembered a local news paper article two
days ago, which mentioned a drunk man in a
truck, who hit a car occupied by a young woman
and a little girl.
.
The little girl died right away, and the mother was
left in a critical state.
.
The family had to decide whether to pull the plug
on the life-sustaining
machine, because the young woman would not be
able to recover from the coma.
.
Was this the family of the little boy?
Two days after this encounter with the little boy, I
read in the news paper that the young woman had
passed away...
.
I couldn't stop myself as I bought a bunch of white
roses I went to the funeral home where the body of
the young woman was exposed for people to see
and make last wishes before her burial.
.
She was there, in her coffin, holding a beautiful
white rose in her hand with the photo of the little
boy and the doll placed over her chest. I left the
place, teary-eyed, feeling that my life had been
changed for ever...
.
The love that the little boy had for his mother and
his sister is still, to this day, hard to imagine. And
in a fraction of a second, a drunk driver had taken
all this away from him.
.
Pleeeeasssssse DO NOT DRINK &
DRIVE...!

And made them stand 100 mtrs away. And announced that who ever reaches1st would get all the fruits in the basket. When he said ready steady go.. Do you know what these small children did? They all caught each other's hands and ran towards the tree together, divided the fruits among them and ate the fruits and enjoyed it. When the Anthropologist asked them why u did so? They said 'Ubuntu' meant 'How can 1 be happy when all the others are Sad'? Ubuntu in their language means 'I AM BCOZ, WE ARE!' Let's all of us carry this attitude and spread happiness.
