Walk on hands.
Each individual born with some natural skills and capabilities by birth. Some get explore them sooner and some identity them when they stuck in certain situation. Only common characteristics we experience every where but special we witness in unique individuals and on special events.
Today morning I was on a grocery shop to get some kitchen items and one boy came and begged a toffee from shopkeeper. I asked him " are you didn't have money? He says "no , I didn't have. Again I asked that why you are not in school? He says " no one goes to school from his home including the elder siblings.
My next question was " what you can do ? He replied with joy that " I can walk on hands!" This answer was very interesting for me and I request him to demonstrate it here. He goes back some steps, jumped little and in a second he was walking on his hands perfectly and easily. I clapped for him and said some words of appreciation and promise to him that do it once again and I will give him a coke 1ltr. His eyes glitter with charm and he walked again. As I promised to him , I buy a ltr coke , one cake for him and 100 PKR cash also handover to him. He thanks to me with tears in eyes and go away.
I feel Strange satisfaction by helping that poor boy in dignified way. I didn't encourage his begging but help him with different trick.
I did my job!!
