Nice Day M G Warrier M 134 A Interaction PKK Nair Ref: E Jyoti, Collage of October 28, 2020 A very touching real life story indeed! My eyes are filled with tears of benevolence. I saw my God there ! Another real time story narrated by famous writer Mrs Sudha Murthy comes to mind. Once she was travelling by train when she saw a poor girl crying and telling the TTR that she had no ticket for her journey upon which Mrs Murthy offered the cost of the ticket on behalf of the girl! Years passed by. Once Mrs Murthy was in the USA for some work and was staying in a big hotel. At the end of her stay, Mrs Murthy went to the counter to settle her bill. Mrs Murthy was surprised when she was told by the counter manager that her bill had already been settled. Suddenly a lady appeared before Mrs Murthy and told ”Madam, I recognised U. Years back you came to rescue me by paying the cost of the ticket when I was travelling by train. I will never forget you in my life. I am now a junior executive of this hotel. I welcome you to this Hotel whenever you visit this city. Hope you had a nice time here.” Mrs Murthy felt her heart full of joy and happiness. She thought our world is small and beautiful!
