Re: … somethings made me wonder
We went for a family trip outside the city last week. We were invited by one of our distant relatives there. I met this young woman, say in early thirties, married to a guy who was in his late 40s i presume. There were lots of kiddies at home - of all ages 2,4,12,16,22 and the sorts.
Later, my mother told me the story of the household. The guy in 40s was married to a woman earlier who left 4 kids and went abroad due to a very very serious issue on both ends. She never came back but kept her contact with her children some times specially their eldest daughter who is 22. The guy got married again and his second wife died. Later, his family got him married to a cousin of his (who was this woman i met) . She was so in charge of the house., running here & there. She now has 2 kids of her own the youngest two that is. But she was soo loving & caring to the other 4 kids. The eldest daughter got married 2 years ago and this woman was feeding her child, caring for him while the daughter was sleeping. She made sure all the 6 kids got food, changed their clothes once they came back from the schools, attended to the elders of the family even those who had horrible tempers & what not.
The sisters of the guy told my mum how caring she was, how she took full control of the house that was breaking, how every one now calls her mama & nani, how the eldest daughter’s kid only goes to nani and no one else… and they said this is all because she is very close to God and follows her deen strictly because she feels its her religion that teaches her not to keep any difference & she never wants to do injustice with any of the kids.
All this made me wonder how great the woman was… how easily she couldve just attended to her own 2 kids but she crossed all boundaries and made sure she was liked by all and cared for kids who were almost her own age.
**Is it really that those who are that close to religion follow the right path and are so convinced in following it? Is it really that people who have strong faith on God are able to do all the right things the right way with such perfection? **
Yes.
**Good faith brings good thoughts. Good results. **
Without religion it is possible too. But here someone shows that people who are religious or close to religion are not behind when it comes to humanity, morals and ethics.
(In fact religious people really taught morals and other qualities to humankind)
Nice to see a refreshing and positive thread in Life1.
Bravo!
