This is an eye-opening story because when we are overwhelmed with adversity we always think we are the only ones who are experiencing that until you look around and beyond. Therefore,kindness can result from admiring the hugeness of the littleness and the realization of the littleness of the-thought-to-be hugeness. This ultimately becomes the lesson of life.

The step taken by your father has been what I would say, boldly unselfish ! I salute him for the move, and I'm sure, all that love n blessings will come back to his life a thousand folds!
