Sometimes His creations too are invisible, isn't?
Today morning was totally different from my regular morning hours. Last night I decided to sleep usual to avoid unnecessary stress while I got ready to office. I was all set to leave home half an hour ahead of my scheduled departure time. That half an hour helped me understand so many wonderful things about life and gave me the time to notice what I had missed all these days. Most of us, in our busy journey to reach our destination, forget to notice important sign boards and lovely landscapes. Once we reach there, another destination is set and we continue our never ending journey, still failing to notice and appreciate what should not be ignored.
As I was leisurely sitting on my sofa, watching TV, I noticed my maid who was quietly cleaning my home. I saw her face and I could read so much of pain in her eyes. She has been working at our home for a year now and I had never given any time to observe her as another human being around. I asked her, "Chinnamma, are you not well or something?" Without stopping the work even for a second she replied, "No sir, I am fine". In the rat race of life, I have ignored the presence and contribution of this wonderful woman who takes care of my home better than me. Immaterial of the meager salary that I pay, I have to be so thankful to her for maintaining my home with so much dedication. Gratitude was flowing in me for this woman about whom I knew nothing else but her name.
