Lifting people
On my way I found a piece of paper tied to an electric pole, with a small note on it. I was curious to know what was written,
hence went closer and read it. "I lost Rs. 50 somewhere on the road. If any of you find it, please give it to me at this address.
My vision isn't great so please help."

I was to follow that address and found an old shattered hut and an old woman sitting outside.
She was frail and asked who is it, following my footsteps.
I said I came by this way, found Rs. 50 on the road so wanted to hand over to you.

She began crying on hearing this. She said
"my dear I have had at least 30-40 people come over and give me Rs. 50 saying they found it on the road.

I didn't write that note; I cannot even see properly nor do I know to read and write"

I said it's OK Amma you keep it. She asked me to tear that note off on my way back.

I walked back with a million thoughts as to who could have written that note?

She would have asked everyone to tear that note but none did.

I mentally thanked that person and realized that we just have to feel the need to help there are many ways to do. He/she just wanted to help this old woman.

Someone stopped me and asked, Bro, can you help me with this address? I found a 50 rupee note, want to handover.


The purpose of life is not only to be happy

It is also to be useful,
to be honorable,
to be compassionate,
to make some difference that you have lived and lived well.”

No one has ever become poor by giving

There is no exercise better for the heart than reaching down and lifting people up
