Reflections - Let’s Not Jump To Conclusion Too Quickly!

“My boss drove a luxury car everyday and it was my duty to greet him and to open the gates for him, as I worked as a watchman in his house.

But he never responded back to my greetings.
One day he saw me opening the garbage bags outside the gate in search for any leftover food.
But, as usual he never even looked at me, it was like as if he never saw anything!

The very next day I saw a paper bag at the same place, but it was clean and the food inside was covered well. It was fresh and good food like someone had just brought it from the supermarket.

I didn't bother as to where it came from, I just took the paper bag and I was so happy about it.

Every day I found this paper bag at the same place with fresh vegetables and all that we needed for home.

This became my daily routine. I was eating and sharing this food with my wife and kids.

I was wondering who this fool could be?! To forget his paper bag full of fresh food everyday.

One day there was a big problem in the house and I was told that my boss has died. There were too many guests coming to his house that day and I didn't get any food that day, so I thought that one of the guests must have taken it.

But the same thing happened the 2nd day, the 3rd day and the 4th day.
It went on like this for a few weeks and I found it difficult to provide food for my family, so I decided to ask the wife of my boss for a raise in my salary or else I would quit my job as a watchman.

After I told her she was shocked and ask me, how come you never complain about your salary for these Years and why is it that your salary is not enough for you now? I gave her so many excuses but she was never convinced.

Finally I decided to tell her the Truth, I told her the story of the bag of groceries and to how it was my daily provision.

She them asked me as to when did it stop? I told her after the death of her husband, and them I realised that I stopped seeing the paper bag immediately after the death of my boss.
Why didn't I ever think of this before?

That it was my boss who was providing this for me, I guess it was because I never thought that a person who never reply my greetings could ever be this generous.

His wife started to cry and I told her to stop crying and that am sorry that I ask for a raise of salary, I never new that it was your husband who was providing me with the meals.. I will remain as a watchman and be happy to provide my service.

His wife say to me, I am crying because I have finally find the 7th person who my husband is give this same bag full of food to.. I knew my husband is giving to seven people every day,,

I have already found the 6 people, and all theae days I have been looking for the seventh person and today I found out.

From that day onward, I started to receive the same bag full of food, but this time his son was bring it to my house and giving it to my hand.

But whenever I thank him, he will not answerJust like his dad.
One day I told him THANK YOU in a very load voice.

He replied back to me to please not be offended when I did not reply, because I have a hear problem just like my dad..

Oh.. We have been wrong so many times judging others without knowing the true story behind their actions.

Be kind in dealing with other's, for every one is fighting a hard battle, be careful, not every thing is about you, before you assume their is this thing called ASKING..

Don't just jump into conclusion, because that is truly not am exercise, it may cause you more harm at the end of the day,.

Many of our problems are caused because of the way we process what happen around us. Don't judge a situation you have never been in.

Be humble enough to learn,.
You don't no know it all. Let's change the way we feel about our self and others.

There are two sides of the story, don't believe every thing you hear.
Every one you meet is fight a battle you know nothing about..
