Alex was sitting in a corner, silently sobbing all by himself but today after 10 years of long wait, there was also a little smile on his lips and a sense of gratitude in every tear he was shedding!
Wondering the connection between Sobs and Smiles?
Well, Alex was sitting in the ICU waiting area of the hospital where his ailing wife Suzie, was undergoing a Liver transplant…..as the hospital finally found a matching donor for her after an extensive and exhausting wait of 10 long years ๐ฆ
Owing to confidentiality, he does not know which blessed soul gave Suzie this โGift of Lifeโ but silently in his heart he is conveying his thanks to the Almighty, to this sacred soul and also to the family who took this tough call!
Soon, Suzie will be able to live a normal life and will also be able to take care of her 11 year old daughter, Tina…. who has lived almost all her childhood without a motherโs care!
Thinking about this scenario, don’t you agree that this “Gift of Life” has saved not only the recipient’s life but has given a new lease of hope to an entire family!
Like me are you also thinking and blessing the donor in your heart…. well, that’s so kind of you but more important is our action, my friend towards saving more lives while we can!
I urge each one of you to think about this scenario and approach the closest hospital or get online to explore the options of volunteering for this cause and fill out the details while we are still hale and hearty….because we will not know when the time will come. This little effort of ours can help save a few lives…..
We don’t know our future, do we?
Very few blessed souls get this opportunity of donating this “Gift of Life”!
But trust me, with this formality, we make it easier for our grieving families! Whenever a moment like this will come, our loved oneโs will go through a lot of physical as well as emotional trauma. By this act of volunteering, we are in a way helping our loved ones who will have to take these tough call on our behalf, if need be!
Though the topic is intense but believe me my friend, these are the values we wish to leave for our coming generations, isnโt it! What better way of teaching them a lesson of compassion?
To conclude: We all know the ultimate truth of life and this choice is positively worth a thought! If our little act can bring smiles even after we are gone, help our grieving loved ones take tough decisions and give satisfaction to one and all, isn’t that the Karma that we wish to accumulate in our Good deeds bucket? Aiming at “Zero” – a state of absolute balance! Decision is obviously yours but trust me, we can be on either side of the table my friend, please remember that!
This is the Ultimate donation a person can give…..a wonderful precedent has been set and should encourage us to willfully volunteer towards it in our lifetime…
Bless you All
