An Empty Wrapper

A girl (7th or 8th grade) in a van outisde the school gate throws an empty wrapper of biscuit packet . Vineesh walking along with me , stops picks it up hands it over to the girl . She explains it's empty and she doesn't need it any more .

Vineesh with a smile " I think you should use the Dustbin " . A parent looked at me and smiled , her smile said the same as my smile" I am proud of u " . Yes this momemt was totally pricelles .

After this incident there were many thoughts running down my mind.

Wow he 's got the guts .

Then I was oh ! if it would have been a an elder boy and he had got offened then what? Should Vineesh take such risk and finally thought

I only hope that by the time he grows up he still holds on too these simple basic values .

After all today it's more about what peers do than what parent's teach .

God Bless
