Sharing what is extra is one of the most Humane Thing to do
This is a write-up based on a recent event that happened with me and suddenly ISC as well raised such a topic. So I was doing shopping with my cousins in the Chandni Chowk Delhi for one of my cousin's weddings and after all the shopping we were very exhausted and were on the verge of collapsing, so one of our cousins told us to try the famous chat of the Chandni-Chowk and we all agreed and went to a Vendor where there was huge crowd everyone getting their share of plates and relishing it.And at the corner near the dustbin was sitting an old widowed lady watching all those leftover plates with nothing left on them. While we were ordering things one of our cousins saw her and bought one extra plate for her of "Bhalle papadi" and gave it to her. She did not realise that the old lady did not have the teeth to eat such a chaat neither do we, we thought why isn't she eating it, so the shopkeeper told us that she wouldn't be able to eat it so we ordered another chaat "Dahi Bhalle" which are quite soft and as soon as we gave it to the old lady, she gave us so many blessings and it felt really nice to do something like that. We all forgot our exhaustion and looked at her eyes and the blessings she was giving and I felt Sharing our extra food was such a humane thing to do. I know it is not something big to be talked about but doing it felt so good and I want more people to do some small gestures like this and feel happy.
I raised this topic here just to share my experience if you have any such experience do share and if not then I would like to request all ISC members if you ever found yourself in such a situation any old person near such stalls do provide them food, not cash but food especially the old people who are not able to do anything. I am against any form of begging by abled body people and will never like to give them anything but people at such age shouldn't be left on the roads and need to be helped.
