I was offered a place to stay by a very kind and poor old couple from India, who gave me their only bed while I was in Assam..I was touched and decided to emulate their kindness to others

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
An old and frail Indian lady,clad in a tattered saree, making rounds in a construction site shoeless under the searing of a midday-sun in Bombay carrying bricks...a rupee a brick. Her tanned-leather-like face looked up and she smile contently at me...I burst into tears
