You are blessed! Lovely Mami, lovely daughters. Stay blessed. I remember when Vidur was about 2, we couldn’t have a birthday celebration, as in inviting people over as we had just arrived in our new house in a new city. Still, we decided we would make sweets and go around distributing them to the neighbors and say hello – sort of introduction, you know. We did that. In the process, we met people en route and of course, offered them the sweet box.

Then we went back home feeling pretty happy – and Vidur says –
Paati, (grandma), Amma (mom) what about those people at the home for the aged? What about those people sitting outside the temple?” And immediately, we made two more batches of sweets and went to distribute them.

We were so touched that he thought of them – you know we would walk around our area and point out places, and explain things to him. Who knew he had absorbed so much?

And today at the ripe old age of 17, the first thing he wants to do to celebrate anything is to go sponsor meals at the local welfare home. I know we indulge him with what he wants, but we’re also blessed that he has grown up sensible and compassionate.

Hugs to you!

If adults could keep more of that willingness to help even if their help appears too little we would all be better off. That wish thing you post does seem a little magical at times.
oh thanks for the shoutout too.
