A man living in a city of the United States, involved in food business and running a cafe. Every day he use to travel downtown market for bringing vegetables, breads and other required stuff.

One day, while he was returning from the market he saw a man with a dog sitting on the road, seeking for help or money so he can buy food for himself and his dog. But the man didn’t stop even after seeing him in such poor needy situation. Next day again he saw the same man with a dog, so he bought some food for the man and milk for the dog. The man smiled and thanked him for the food.

Man asked him why don’t you work to earn your livelihood? and you seem to be fit and fine. The man replied – “Sir, I am roaming around for job but I am unable to get the same.” The man gave a thought and asked what if I offer you a job? Will you accept my offer? The man without giving a thought accepted the offer and “Sir, I promise you to be the most hard-work and will do my duty with dedication and honesty.

The man told him that he will pay him $50 and also provide accommodation and food facility. He will have to look after the cafe and materials stored in the store-room, keep record of the things. He briefed him with all the relevant details, the poor needy man understood and agreed to start the work. The man asked him when he can start working with him, he replied happily – “Sir, I am ready to join you from tomorrow.” The man said- “Alright, I’ll come to pick you here only, tomorrow at the same time.

Next day, the poor needy man dressed up well and was waiting for the man on the same street. The man arrived as per the said time, he was quite happy seeing the man standing well dressed and that too on time. The man asked him to get in the car along with his dog.

They reached to his cafe, he introduced him with all the other workers and showed all the things. The man started his work and as he committed that he will work hard with honesty and dedication, he did so. The man was happy to see him keeping his word.

Within a short period, the man earned quite a good amount and was able to get himself a house and buy the required food for himself and his dog as well.

He continued to work in the same place, with the same dedication. One day the man, came to know that he had moved to some other place. He called him and asked him why he left the allotted accommodation, what’s wrong with him. The man asked him to come with him, and he took him to his house and told him, sir, I have bought myself this small house and so I have moved here with my pet.

The man felt happy, seeing the transformation in the poor man’s life as he was no longer that poor needy man whom he saw on the street a long way back. Now, the same person is a hard-worker employee and owns his house.

One helping hand can transform at least one life on this earth and so if you are capable of doing so, take a step ahead and give a helping hand to poor needy people.

Work for social cause and social deeds indeed gives you happiness and satisfaction. Humanity is the greatest thing on this planet.
