Children are the logos —(Jesus
Christ as divine wisdom, word of God.) in our lives. They are truthful, kind
and loving.
When
Paul goes shopping he is always thinking about the other person. If he wants to
buy an item he would check out how much there is before he buys. When I go
shopping I would buy exactly what I wanted even if I took the last of the item.
Paul would never take the last. He would always leave one.
One
day I asked him to buy four of a particular thing for me. There were four
remaining, he bought two and he left two. “Paul I really needed four,” I said
and I was feeling a bit pissed.
“I
know mom, but if I took four you will have four and someone else might just
need one and they would not have any. You do not need all today. Tomorrow I
will check to see if there are more.
“You
are right,” I said and I walked away sayings, “Oh gosh ah shame.”
“Nah,
you weren’t thinking,” He said.
Today
when my family and I go shopping we always leave for the other person.
A wonderful
safe day to you and yours.
