ALL IT TAKES IS A GOOD DEED!!

It was a sight. Not like any other but neither one I had never seen. They were all there. Puffing it out, some to show off and some thinking it was too cool….

And I stood there for a while watching and thinking. Wasn’t it just for a little money? Just money worth one cigarette!

I wasn’t sure if I should take the lead and go about it. Then I did it. I went forth. I walked up to the shopkeeper. At first it felt awkward. I thought what my people would think if they saw me here. Then I thought-why should I care. I am indeed helping that poor soul.

So I went over to him and said can I buy a pack of biscuits? He gave me a weird look and then said- yes, sure! I bought them, walked over and put them on the ground, stepped aside and waited….

Finally the dog put away its fear and moved close to the biscuits. Still watchful, it ate them up quickly. I stood there for a little more time, watched it eat them and then smiled at it and walked away.

And as I was walking away I was thinking, when people spend more than hundreds each month to reduce their lives, why not spend a little and save someone’s?? Does it take so much to help someone?

It is always about taking a step forward but we don’t do it most of the times. Why, either we think our people would laugh at us or that it is just not necessary! Making a move is vital, not appreciation.

As it is said, do good…the rest will follow….

T o me, I still see Timber around and it feels good….that is the good that follows….atleast to me..!!
