"The deepest
human need is the need to be appreciated." (William James (1842-1910), American
psychologist & philosopher). So often people do us favours, give us
help and assistance, and provide outstanding service – but we somehow neglect
to remark on it or reward it even with a few words of sincere thanks.
On
18/07/2015, I was in small village name called Donthamuru in Andhra Pradesh for
Children education program, Event will be happening by 20-07-2015 but prior to
that I was there for looking after all needed things. It was joy to go to
the stationary shop and get it required stationary from Bhavani Book stall
which is located in Pithapuram and will take a one hour journey from school.
Owner name was Shiva; he was generous and gave us reasonable price as he knows
that this will be for donating. After sometime, we realized that there
was not enough stock of bags as this will be for high school students. He
immediately made a call to another vendor to get the enough bags. Thank you
Shiva.
Next day (19/07) I had gone to same
town to get the cakes and sweets for kids. I was intensively gone inside the
shop and taste the food and confirmed it as all this will be distributing for
children. Here, shopper keeper was asking that why are you buying this much
quantity? I responded to him in gently way and explained the reason to buy then
He says he will give some discount on sweets and cakes. Thank you Sweets Wala.
All helps me to get it done this event. Same night, I wanted to
pack the cake, sweets and etc., and then I was thinking that can I finish all
the packing now as head count would be 70 members. Someone from same village

china.
