My Cleaning Service Friends Granted Me the Most Beautiful Gift: Their Tender Love and Trust
I hope that you will all experience the blast of being genuinely loved!
Many individuals might think that physical hunger is unbearable and that it’s the highest form of suffering.
Don’t get me wrong, I am not talking about the unfair famine and its disastrous impact on the whole being; a topic that will forever break my heart…
I am rather referring to a momentary and circumstantial physical hunger, whether chosen or not.
The truth is the hunger of the soul could be far more intolerable. For inherently good people, they may have the perfect life on paper by social lenses; still, they feel miserable. I have been in that place before my re-birth.
Should you be interested, I explored the different possible root causes in the following piece. It was linked to Buddhism teachings but Stoicism and Taoism philosophies are very similar, as well:
For troubled souls who lost their battle and turned bad to evil, their emotional world is so shallow and chaotic that they are unlikely to even understand what trust and genuine love mean at all.
I went to the gym for a Body Pump session. My gym has different premises. It has been a while that I didn’t visit yesterday’s one.
My best friend among the Cleaning Service staff almost ran in my direction. I wrote about her some time ago here:
We were both wearing our masks; thus, I received her pure affection with open arms. She was hugging me and expressing how much my presence was missed.
My heart was about to explode out of joy! I kept thanking her for the overwhelming warmth with torn eyes and emphasizing how much I valued who she was as a person.
There was another girl from the staff who was smiling and waiting for her turn. She didn’t have a mask and wanted to exchange kisses. I gently gave her a half-hug, instead, while explaining that I wouldn’t forgive myself for making her sick.
“Oh, I will not be bothered if you are the source! I’ll never forget how you offer your help every time we start cleaning while you’re exhausted following your session!”
I couldn’t help but start crying while feeling fulfilled by the priceless trust and recognition coming from those two pure souls!
Dear readers: We all come to this life, spend some time, and go. How would you like to be remembered? As a human ‘doing’ who spent their entire life trying to prove their worth through their achievements and personal success, or as a principled human ‘being’ and a servant leader who never stopped doing the right thing and contributing to uplifting the world?
