MORAL STORY FB # 2 ( PART 2 ) The beggar proceeded on his way, blissfully unaware of what had happened . Every day, as thewoman placed the chapatti on the window sill, she offered a prayer for her son who had goneto a distant place to seek his fortune. For many months, she had no news of him. That very evening, there was a knock on the door. As she opened it, she was surprised to find her son standing in the doorway. He had grown thin and lean. His garments were tatteredand torn. He was hungry, starvedand weak. As he saw his mother,he said, “Mom, it’s a miracle I’m here. While I was but a mile away, I felt so weak that I collapsed. I would have died, butjust then an old beggar passed by. I begged of him for a some of food, and he was kind enough to give me a whole chapatti. As he gave it to me, he said, “This is what I eat everyday: today, I shall give it to you, for your need is greater than mine!” Hearing these words , the mother’s face turned pale. She leaned against the door for support. She remembered the poisoned chapatti that she had made that morning. Had she not burnt it in the fire, it would havebeen eaten by her own son, and he would have lost his life! It was then that she realized the significance of the words: “The evil you do remains with you: The good you do, comes back to you!” { MORAL } Do good and Don’t ever stop doing good, even if it is not appreciated at that time
