KUTTY STORY 18

Make choices that will benefit others as well


Once there was a man who was travelling through a desert. It was 3-4 days and he had run out of supplies. As it was a desert, he couldn't manage any sojourn neither he could find food or even water. The man kept on walking as long as could. 
He saw a small hut at a distance, In the first go he thought its just his imagination. As he moved further, he realized, he shouldn't have given the credit to his imagination because there was a hut after all. 
The man rushed to the hut and to his great surprise, he saw a hand-pump inside the hut. He was desperate to get some water and so moved the piston as quickly as possible but he got no water and he became more tired and lay on his back. As he lay down he saw a bottle of water hanging from above the hand pump. He grabbed the bottle without wasting any time. Once he had the bottle in his hand he saw a piece of note with it. In the note it was written ' The water in the bottle has to be poured into the hand pump and then pumped again, after you get enough water refill the bottle and hang it back for someone else who might need it in the future.' 
The man was confused. He was so thirsty that he wanted to drink the water as he wasn't sure of getting water from the hand pump. 
The man thought for some time and he decided to take the risk. He poured the water into the hand pump and moved the piston.  He couldn't get water initially, but in some time, he could hear the sound of water and slowly water started flowing from the tap. The man felt really happy.  He refreshed and drank as much as he wanted and filled some for his return journey as well. 
However, he didn't forget to refill the bottle as instructed in the note. He also added 'It works' to the note with the bottle to instill confidence into the next forlorn traveller to follow the instructions. He went his way happily thinking....


Sometimes we should give our decisions a second thought.
Our small effort may be a great favor to someone else. 




Keep others in your thoughts and prayers.
