Not Just My Maid


--by Sanyogita, posted Mar 21, 2017
Today the temperature was too hot. My maid came up late for work, and when  I asked her the reason she said her mother was ill and she had to admit her to the hospital. She was very exhausted due to hot weather and  her hectic schedule.

I offered her cold juice and then she said, "Madam, it's ok, I'm fine. There is no need of it." I replied "there is a need for this juice you are  thirsty and you need this energy drink". She drank then went to do her household chores.

After completing her work she was about to leave, I called her and offered rice plate with dal. Again she refused - actually she is a very shy person.I knew she was hungry too.

She ate with tears in her eyes.I told her "don't worry your mother will be fine as she is taking treatment and if there is any problem, I'll help you out. Just relax and don't have tension. Here is some money that will help you for your mother's treatment."  I also told her she should take leave for a few days. She was just overwhelmed.

God is within You and Me.
We Just need to see it in the heart of another person.
