Her parents died in a car accident. She grew up with her maternal grand mother. Her paternal aunt did not want to support her, so she she could not live with her paternal family. At the age of 7, she started feeling lonely. She always told herself, that there is no one for me. She could not make friends also because with them, she felt they had a family and she had not. She could not compete. With her loneliness and she started doing all she could for little love and compassion. Her granny died and she wondered what she could do. No family, no friend. She felt sick and she started visiting doctors. Most of her money started going into medicines and doctors’ fees. Still, she felt it was not helping her. At the age of 32, she met someone online and he started helping her deal with it. She shared and then they talked. She started helping. She started responding to the medicines too. The doctors were surprised. She gathered the confidence to enrol in a course and then take up a job too.
So what healed her? The love and sharing. What stopped her healing? Her lonliness.
She was an educated lady. Her husband died at the age of 62. HEr children settled in US and Canada. She was all alone and at the age of 82, she sat and cried. She wondered what she had done. She did not need money. She received her pension. She had given a part of her house on rent. But she had no one to talk to. She always sat and cried. Her children were ok, if she visited them but they were not ok, if she decided to live with them.
I remember, mother Teresa said that, give the charity of love. Give it to the people sitting at your home. And I agree. Please support people around you. Help them share. Help them feel, they have someone, they could talk to. Share love and friendship with whomso ever you can. Do not let this world become a lonli place.
