The Most Caring Child

{Love is everything. It is the key to life, and its influences are those that move the world: Ralph Waldo Trine}

Author and lecturer Leo once talked about a contest he was asked to judge. The purpose of the contest was to find the most caring child. The winner was a four-year-old child whose next-door neighbour was an elderly gentleman who had recently lost his wife. Upon seeing the man cry, the little boy went into the old gentleman’s yard, climbed onto his lap, and just sat there.

When his mother asked him what he had said to the neighbour, the little boy said, “Nothing, I just helped him cry.”
