DP Daily Prompt: Moment of Kindness Post by Ranu
English: Winter, 1962-63 – Snow clearance, top of Ormerod House driveway On this day it took one whole day to clear the snow from the full length of the driveway (Photo credit: Wikipedia)
It was a few winters ago.We had knee-deep snow on our driveway.I got ready with my shovel to clear nature’s undue kindness.I came out and saw a girl walking in,’Hi,Mrs. Asgar’ she said,’Can I clear your driveway?’ I was taken aback,she knew I did not recognize her.She reminded me she was my former student. As I was chatting with her,five of her friends joined us,they cleared my driveway like professionals.
Not to be outdone I roasted a turkey with all the fix-ins and dessert for the girls.I knew they were university kids and would like some home cooked meal.It was a pleasure cooking for these extremely thoughtful kids.
Only one girl knew me.The other girls were strangers. So I thought,’ Surely one good turn deserves another’.
Dear Ranu,
Thank you for sharing this very nice story of kindnesses on top of kindnesses.
All good wishes,
robert
I had to do something too.I cooked the Turkey.They didn’t expect it.I enjoyed doing it for those fine ladies!
Best wishes to you.

I enjoyed writing this daily prompt,it brought back memories of six university students who unselfishly gave their time to help me.Sometimes I say ‘you’ll be all right when God is watching you’
