A lady worked at a meat distribution factory. One day, when she finished
with her work schedule, she went into the meat cold room (Freezer) to
inspect something, but in a moment of misfortune, the door closed and
she was locked inside with no help in sight. Although she screamed and
knocked with all her might, her cries went unheard as no one could hear
her. Most of the workers had already gone, and
outside the cold room it's impossible to hear what was going on inside.
Five hours later, whilst she was at the verge of death, the security
guard of the factory eventually opened the door.
She was miraculously
saved from dying that day. When she later asked the security guard how
he had come to open the door, which wasn't his usual work routine, this
was his explanation:
"I've been working in this factory for 35
years. Hundreds of workers come in and out every day, but you're one of
the few who greet me in the morning and say goodbye to me every evening
when leaving after work. Many treat me as if I'm invisible. Today, as
you reported for work, like all other days, you greeted me in your
simple manner 'Hello'. But this evening after working hours, I curiously
observed that I had not heard your "Bye, see you tomorrow". Hence, I
decided to check around the factory. I look forward to your 'hi' and
'bye' every day because they remind me that I am someone. By not hearing
your farewell today, I knew something had happened. That's why I was
searching every where for you."
Moral Lesson to reflect upon: Be
humble, love and respect those around you. Try to have an impact on
people who cross your path every day, you never know what tomorrow will
bring.
