I got the information in the morning that Kamala who helps me in everything from taking care of my home and center was sick and may not be able to come for a few days. First thought was concern for her and the second thought,'OMG! How am I going to manage home/center without her.'
Yep! I was being selfish there and I also told myself that I had told her to take rest but she would not listen.
I took a deep breath and told myself that I could manage.. I have done this before ..and I could do it.
I reached home and started working on getting the chores done.. one by one.
I had a visitor, she is a beautician whom I know for the last 7 years. For me, the connection is more than just a professional relationship. As soon as she saw the condition of the kitchen she said,' Didi there is so much to do.. I will do the dishes, you sweep the floor..we can finish the work together'
I did not take up her offer and at the same time was amazed with her spontaneous response. She had come for work leaving her nine month old baby who has to undergo an open heart surgery in October. With all her problems ..she was still so open to help me out. She showed me that heart can be at peace even in such hard situations. So...much learning for me ...
