A bowl of Noodles
One night, Sue quarrelled with her mother, then stormed out of the house. While en route, she remembered that she did not have any money in her packet, she did not even have enough coins to make a phone call to home.
At the same time, she went through a noodle shop, picking up sweet fragrance, she suddenly felt very hungry. She wished for a bowl of noodles, but she had no money!
The seller saw her standing hesitantly before the counter and asked:
-Hey little girl, you want to eat a bowl?
But .... but I do not carry money ... she shyly replied.
Okay, I'll treat you - the seller said - come in, I will cook you a bowl.
A few minutes later the owner brought her a steaming bowl of noodles. She ate some pieces and started crying.
What is it? - He asked.
Nothing. I am just toughed by your kindness! - Sue said as she wiped her tears. Even a stranger on the street gives me a bowl of noodles, and my mother, after a quarrel, chased me out of the house.
She is cruel!!
The seller sighed, "Girl, why did you think so? Think again. I only gave you a bowl of noodles and you felt that way. Your mother had raised you since you were little, why were you not grateful and disobeyed your mom?"
Sue was really surprised after hearing that.
In life, we sometimes appreciate the small actions of some people around us, but at times we do something as an instant reaction without realizing what all a person has done for us all the while. Just pause for a second, and think before you react to a situation.
