You reap what you sow!

9:30 AM, 30th March 2007. I was busy doing Shiva stuti when my cell phone rang and I told my cousin to pick up the phone. I could hear the voice in of the caller, It has to be toshit. My cousin told Toshit that I was in bathroom. I finished my Shiva stuti and was waiting for call from Toshit. Cell rang again but it was Rahul's call. I picked the phone. Rahul Told me thats Sameer's father had an accident and he is in ICU. I dressed up and left for hospital and went to ICU. Sameers father was laying on bed. After inquirinbg about his health I sat in the rom to keep company to Sam's mom. While talking to Sam's mom, She told me it feels good that old people still remember and have taken care of them so well. The old employees who have ever worked with sam's dad were there to check him out. They got food cooked from there homes and brought them to hospital. I was watching all that and I realised how being right and being good pays.

Mr. I D Pandey, retired IFS, former MD of Uttranchal forest corporation. He was always a person who has not only inspired me but also at times amazed me. He is a living example of honesty and one can always learn a thing or two in honesty. I can remember him paying money to forest department for offical car used by his son. A person who always valued every one but hated dishonest people. He helped every one but always made sure that every one follows the rules including him and his family.

When I saw every one respecting him not because he was IFS but because he was a good human. Every one visiting him not to make brownie points but he means a lot to alot of people. All this because he was always right and ready to help others.

Today I truly understood the meaning of the saying " You reap what you sow".
Some time later I am sure I am going to write more about him.
