There was an old man who was admitted in the hospital. A young man was visiting him every day, and sits with him for more than one hour.
He helps him eat his food, and take his shower.
Then he takes him walking in the garden of the hospital.
After that he brings him back to his room and helps him to lie down.
He goes away after reassuring that the old man is doing well.
One day the nurse entered his room, to give him medicine and inspect his condition, and said to him: "May the Lord be always gracious to your kind and caring son. Every day he visits you and shows great care."

| Kindness: The Language We All Understand |
"I wish it was one of my children. This is an orphan from the neighborhood where we live. I met him one day, crying at the door of a Mosque, after his father died. I comforted him and bought for him candy. I neither saw him nor talked to him for a very long time.
When he grew up and came to discover where my wife and I were living. He was visiting us every day to inspect our conditions. When I later fell sick, he took my old wife to his home. He then comes to the hospital to see my treatment everyday. One day I asked him: My son why do you have to deal with us and care about us?
He simply smiled and then said: The taste of the candy is still in my mouth."
Moral of the story :
Plant well, if you do, even if it is not on your place. God will not Forget the beautiful deed wherever you have planted it. A beautiful act of kindness will only be harvested by those who planted it, no matter how long it takes.
