I would like to share this story with anyone who feels that their kindness is invisible to those who take them for granted. First I would like to say, Thank you, for always being kind, even when the world is too blind to see.
This is a story that my religion teacher told me. Once upon a time, there was a blind woman, who hated the Prophet Muhammad so much that she said bad things about him. Little did she know that the Prophet Muhammad was the benefactor who routinely brought her food. She was blind, so she couldn't see who that person was.
Kind of strange, isn't it? The woman couldn't see, but somehow she hated and talked badly about the person who was helping her.
Anyway, one day, after Prophet Muhammad passed away, one of his followers brought the food. Somehow, the blind woman sensed that it was not the same person providing him with food. So she asked, who the man was usually brought her food?
Oh that was the Prophet Muhammad, but he passed away.
The blind woman wept, and said that she regretted all of things that she said about the Prophet Muhammad.
Today I really understand the message from this story.
In life, people may unkind to us, No matter what we do it will simply never be enough. All our good deeds are invisible to them. Yet, that is no excuse for giving up and not doing good deeds.
Some people maybe too blind to see us as we are (people of kindness, worth and value) even those we deeply care about.
However, those who truly love us, will always see how good we are as a person, even the rest of the world is too blind to see.
