Suji ka Halwa - A Lady's Act of Sincerity!

My Mother used to care a lot about people in the community. 
I'm biased, she was my mother, that doesn't discount the fact that she was a great human being, and unmatchable in her cooking skills. 

So, it happened once. One of her acquaintances, was in hospital. I am not able to recall the cause of Aunty's hospital stay but it wasn't major.                                                                 

My mother expressed her desire to pack freshly prepared Suji ka Halwa and visit the Aunty. My father wasn't particularly excited about the idea, as he had to go office.

So, what would you expect such a lady to do? Picture this! It's late 90s, small mining township, no mode of public transport. Only option my mother was left with was to walk few Kms with the Halwa.

Yet she didn't give up the idea!
She was like that!

There were ample incidents when she went out of her way to serve people irrespective of their social standing & whether her act would be considered as one of kindness or just go in vain.

The bottomline of her life would be : She went thankless & left her body too soon!
