Life's Biggest Happiness comes in Smallest Packets


Hey all you Kind-Hearted People!


A Warm Hello,


If I can make a person smile, my day truly becomes worthwhile...This is undoubtedly the philosophy of my life...gifted to me by my mom whom I lost 9 years ago...Spreading smiles is what I have seen her do all through her life and when I do exactly the same, I feel closer to her as she is and will forever be alive in my heart <3


And so my life is so much richer with the sweet memoirs of these lovely moments where following my heart has brought a genuine smile on someone's face...Sharing a relatively recent one, that satiated my soul...


This incident dates back to a couple of years back when I shifted to Pune from Gurgaon.....Luckily I found a good domestic help with about a decade full of similar experience...She was not only hands on in domestic work but also an excellent nanny for my little chap.....Within months she gelled so well with us that we almost felt she was our family member...we lovingly called her "Gorethi Akka" .....She lived with us and we never saw her spending even a single penny out of her salary, little did I know she had a mission in life until one day she candidly poured her heart out to me...


I was pained to know that she and her only son were abandoned by her husband some years back (she was happy about it though, as this had put an end to the physical and mental abuse she has been bearing for long) and since than her son lived with Gorethi Akka's mom and dad in their village while she worked extremely hard to support her son and her very old ailing parents....Now her son has completed his primary education and there were no school after class 5 in her village....However she desperately wanted her son to get good education so that he does not grow up to be another drunkard illiterate monster like his father...So she was collecting every single penny vehemently, to admit him to a school in Patna and also support his living there....


I was extremely touched by her story and felt deep in my heart to help her out in the most noble mission of her life, to the best of my abilities....This was extremely essential too to reinforce her faith back in humanity....I asked her to let me know the total amount needed to deposit for her son's admission and how must she has already collected...she initially hesitated for she is a lady of great self-respect but as I convinced her that she can return it from her salary as per her convenience, she agreed...and happy to help as I always am, but only to the real needy, my heart was super-elated again.....

For the first time in last few months, I had seen a hearty smile on her face...That weekend she went back and got her son's admission done..I also sent with her some clothes and shoes for her son.... Being able to complete all formalities for the same, her heart 's joy knew no bounds...Sincere as she always is, she returned back to us and our Gorethi Akka still lives with us like a family member...This year her son goes to Class 8th and as he is growing up, so is my heart's happiness of following my heart in making Akka's Dream come True <3 ...A small gesture of mine brought such a big happiness to someone really worthy of it, isn't it ? 


Life's Biggest Happiness truly comes in Smallest Packets <3 ..So never hesitate to take that small plunge :) ... You mat never know, it may create a MAGIC in someone's life...


And hence when I came to know of the worthy #DilKiDeal Activity of Snapdeal, I thought to pen down my ecstatic contentment experienced through this  #DilKiDeal incident in my life ( My #DilKiDeal  Story), which is forever etched on my heart...
