Due to the global pandemic, the present time has been difficult for all of us. We had shifted to our new office in early 2020, just two weeks before the lockdown was enforced. Since we are out of work at the moment, we had to let go of our staff and our office space as we could no longer afford the rent. It pained us deeply to shut our beautiful office for good. The office had elegant furniture, including a luxurious sofa, stationery items, electronic items and many other things. We could have quickly put them up for resale as they were in good condition, but my husband and I decided to donate everything, including our desktop computers, to a nearby madrasa where orphaned children from distant states board and study. We also provide them with enough groceries for a month.
I have no words to express the happiness I saw in their eyes when they came to collect all this. I am grateful that we could make a difference in their life. The joy of giving overshadowed our sadness of suffering a financial loss. Giving is a beautiful experience.
Takeaway
Giving to others is a special joy which can’t be expressed in words.
