Today's topic is kindness.
Here is a story about kindness:
A Glass of Milk
One day, a poor boy who was selling goods from door to door to pay his way through school, found he had only one thin dime left, and he was hungry.He decided he would ask for a meal at the next house. However, he lost his nerve when a lovely young woman opened the door.
Instead of a meal he asked for a drink of water! She thought he looked hungry so brought him a large glass of milk. He drank it so slowly, and then asked, How much do I owe you?"
You don't owe me anything," she replied. "Mother has taught us never to accept pay for a kindness."
He said ... "Then I thank you from my heart."
As Howard Kelly left that house, he not only felt stronger physically, but his faith in God and man was strong also. He had been ready to give up and quit.
Many year's later that same young woman became critically ill. The local doctors were baffled. They finally sent her to the big city, where they called in specialists to study her rare disease.
Dr. Howard Kelly was called in for the consultation. When he heard the name of the town she came from, a strange light filled his eyes.
Immediately he rose and went down the hall of the hospital to her room.
Dressed in his doctor's gown he went in to see her. He recognized her at once.
He went back to the consultation room determined to do his best to save her life. From that day he gave special attention to her case.
After a long struggle, the battle was won.
Dr. Kelly requested the business office to pass the final bill to him for approval. He looked at it, then wrote something on the edge, and the bill was sent to her room. She feared to open it, for she was sure it would take the rest of her life to pay for it all. Finally she looked, and something caught her attention on the side of the bill. She read these words ...
"Paid in full with one glass of milk"
(Signed) Dr. Howard Kelly.

Durga Khote
First day of CD after ages.
Drew the above sketch in the shaky bus while going to work,
tried all day to upload the sketch on blogger but couldnt succeed via a 2G phone,
returned home now at 11.30 pm after being stuck in traffic for 4.5 hours.
It has been a pleasure to draw Durga Khote as she is a quintessential Indian mother.

ED ..Enjoy Drawing!!
When I first heard of CD,I instantly fell for it as I got new topics, and it was a daily challenge to connect
politics for each topic. I was so hooked on to it,
that I felt like a kid eagerly waiting for the
Teacher to post the topic of the day!! Once the topic given was Fruit
Salad..and I racked my head for an idea…Lo…I got it! I drew a cartoon of a man offering Anna Hazare a Fruit salad with the punch line: “Annaji, an MP has sent this to you, so that you don’t talk about the Lokpal
Bill at least while eating it”!! It was real fun to enjoy the toons of Dinesh, th humour of Akila, the wonderful paintings of Prabha, Charu, Vidhu, Bhaktha and many others. In the end Ranjani and Subhashini too chipped in with their kids...But then all good things come to an end..and so it was with CD as all became busy in their own activities...Still Charu and me held fort...until one fine day Charu too left...At this juncture I feel so happy that I have drawn for all the topics given to me ever since I started drawing for CD!! The end of CD does not mean CLOSING DOWN but CONTINUE DRAWING...Let's ED..ENJOY DRAWING!! CHEERS!!
