The story of a small boy....
Youngest of our children at Child Children's home, our beloved 4.5 year old Sai(name changed) broke his leg last week and was hospitalized.
When I visited him at the home today, he welcomed me with such a big smile and narrated how he got hurt while playing with a senior boy...not a minute of complaint or show of pain...he was excited when I sat next to him to hear his hospital adventure, and he said he got lot of fans there....he wanted to get well soon and watch Jailer movie again. He said shyfully that no school next 6 weeks as he can't walk and saw his mischievous smile when he said that.
He said, 'aunty, photo edutukulam as I look funny!'... when I felt a bit uneasy, he showed me the smile gesture with his hand and another hand holding me tight. Such a sense of positivity when he is stuck in a place and obvious pain and discomfort and still kept smiling...he asked me to get a hospital bed, for he liked the small one in hospital..and said the bed will be, all for himself!... naughty fella.
We complain for small n petty uneasiness things in life. Here is a child, who got parted from his parents early in life, has only an old grandmother as a guardian and who can barely visit him, who made his happiness his choice, makes fun of his ortho heavy bandage, and says he looks funny with a daiper, but enjoys attention of all other boys and attenders. He was super excited to pet my fur baby n her fuzz for a while ....
Lessons and blessings do not come from elsewhere, but with these tiny souls around....and loves to call caretaker Senthil as Anna ...as he wants to make him feel young itseems, then why Aunty me da?!
Love you baby. Heal soon n get back on your feet. We have lot of naughty running to do around our home
