the boy
Not long ago, i knew a boy that his mother worked as a house cleaner and his father worked as a security.
the boy had no fashionable clothes and staff to map him among others, that somedays he would cry asking his parents to buy him expensive clothes and accessories until one day...

It was a Saturday morning when the boy decided to go to town and buy himself some clothes,
he worked in the woods and sometimes made himself available to some peace jobs to keep him with some wages.

On his way to town on taxi he was sitting next to an old man with no hand, he felt sad and the old man saw the boys face and said,

" owh boy, you are a kind gentleman and your parents must be proud, they raised a so caring soul. i worked in the mines where i lost my hand, but im grateful for what i have today which is my family and my other hand. don't look sad son, maybe you should but one time you will realise it more over"

after the drive on his way to the clothing Stores the boy saw a disabled woman with no leg walking from the other side of the street, thoughts hit him up once again...

the boy changed his way and went to food stores and bought some groceries, the words of the strange man from the taxi caught him thinking about the importance of appreciating what you have, not what you want to have until you do.

the boy bought food and transferred some money to his other family away from home.

it is now i realise, it's not important to wear expensive perfumes, a watch and clothes whilst there is a great opportunity to wake your beloved ones happiness.
kindness is not yours but you can share.

arriving home with the groceries, his grandmother told him that... " you are grown up now, you showed what you wish to do when you have money, may god bless you with more from where you took "

Moral: its important to appreciate what you have before spoiling yourself...
