Alms from the Difficult

Third party reference
Does charity or donation of some property have to wait for us rich first.
It's a story when I happen to come home late at night. That day the street was quiet. angkot-angkot already home, even vehicles are only a few passing by. I then decided to walk on foot first while waiting for public transport stop by and pick me home to destination.

Under shady trees, suddenly a motorcycle stopped next to me. "Ma'am, where are you going?"

I noticed his posture. Apparently he was still young-about twenty years old. His face looks good, his posture is solid, and his voice is friendly. At night like this, I think he is an online motorcycle taxi driver who is trying to earn sustenance. baby, my phone is dead. So, I can not access the booking feature of my online ojek application.

After mentioning the purpose and making sure that I was not waiting for someone else, the man offered me a ride. "Come, mbak, I'm inter. pity, it's been like this. It's okay not to use apps too. Incidentally the place is not too far away. "

Although a little hesitant but my little heart said to try to trust the man. I sat in the back and the vehicle immediately drove off shortly afterwards. on top of the vehicle that was splitting the streets that night, the man I knew the Acep call then told me about his life.

"I'm the eldest son, mbak. After high school I then wander to this city. Alhamdulillah, the people are kind and friendly. I feel at home and at home to stay and have a career here, mbak. "

The man's daylight was filled with trading krispi chicken near the school. After the afternoon, he started walking around town and picked up people with his battered motor. for him, life must always be filled with expediency and full of struggle. It was touched me, considering that I had not really done that principle in my life either.

Arriving at the destination, I was surprised when asked the cost to the young man. "It's up to you. I am sincere no matter what I love. Count the charity of mbak because I have nothing other than this battered motor and body to fulfill my obligations as a human being. "

Somehow the answer instantly made me melt. when others are reluctant to set aside some of his property, the young man in front of me that night was willing to set aside some of his time and energy in order to serve and serve others. I then took the blue sheet in my wallet and gave it to the young man. "To Mas. the return please be stored and utilized as well as yes. "

Lafaz was grateful then uttered from his lips. I am also happy happily mixed emotion because that night gain valuable learning. Alms does not always demand the wealth of possessions that we have. Furthermore, alms only requires the wealth of souls that are imprinted in the heart. May this simple story inspire us to be the ones who light up and share with others. [mg]
