When you have a fight with your mother-in-law, and then with your colleagues at work, you tend to stop believing in goodness and all that stuff. But in fact, kindness is everywhere, and even a stranger can suddenly do something so wonderful that the world around you becomes suddenly brighter.
I work as an ENT doctor in a public clinic. And we also have an ENT center for children. I went there to see my colleague, and there was a mum with a disabled child sitting in the line and not even trying to get ahead. I offered her to come with me, saying it would be faster that way.
You know, her words got deep into my soul, “No, I will wait, because my child is the same as others, his nose is not different from the nose of the girl on the right. Your job takes a lot of nerve as it is, so why do I have to bother nurses and doctors to examine us faster than the others?” Can we have more people like this?
