Before you read the story below (I received it as an email), I want to share something from my real life.
People (my family and friends) who appreciate me for sponsoring a child need to know something that is very special to me. We are celebrating Women’s Week on my blog and wanted to make it something different. I think no woman can be a super woman. There is always an idea or driving force or support from men in her life – father, brother, brother-in-law, husband etc.
Most of my readers, friends and family who think that I sponsored a child need to know that I got this idea from someone else. I met or actually I did not meet him but a conversation with a gentleman help me to explore that there is something called ‘sponsoring a child’ as well. If that gentleman would not have discussed the concept with me, I would have never come to know about it. After the conversation with him, I explored and got associated with Sphoorti and my 92 kids. So those who think that I did a noble job actually the noble idea goes to the noble gentleman. So whenever I get appreciated for this gesture somewhere I thank HIM for all that.
So all those who appreciate me should appreciate and appraise HIM rather than me. We meet people for a reason and the reason is always for our good. Today, on my blog I thank HIM and there is nothing by which I can repay this good idea of yours.
I thank all men who stood with me in this sponsorship without discouraging this thought! My celebration of Women’s Day is not accomplished if I do not thank some of the best men I met in my life.
A very lovely story that defines the real meaning of a mother – a true mentor of a child. I blog this conversation of a new born with God for all sponsored or adopted or biological mothers.
