The man with the bun & the woman with the scarf
Sometimes, when u r far away 4m ur home, u learn that people really care for strangers, that caring n sharing doesn't need words, n that there are really gud people in today's otherwise bad times...

My mom has recently returned 4m a travel-trip to Greece n Turkey, n she told me about two such instances:
- When my parents were searching 4 a place 2 sit in a park where the benches were covered with the recent raindrops n mud, a man sitting n happily munching a bun discerned their discomfiture...he promptly took out his napkin 4m a pocket, cleaned the bench dry, n offering the seats to my parents, he himself moved to the corner of the bench, n continued munching...no words were spoken...it was a simple gesture that nevertheless touched my mom's heart deeply.
- One day, it was raining very heavily...some members of the tourist group did not have umbrellas....seeing this, a lady stopped to place her own scarf on the head of one of the tourists(an elderly woman who was getting drenched in the rain), n before the tourists could even thank her, she disappeared in one of the many narrow lanes....but this little gesture of concern was etched forever in my mom's memories....
