The small time grocery shop owner visited a certain modern Hi-Fi shop on a requirement. As he was checking his buying needs he accidentally overturned a small equipment. Noticing that the unhappy owner of the shop remarked,
- "Dear! Be careful in handling the equipment here. They are the costliest ones, you know. It may not strike you as you are familiar with only
- All your years of life!"
Days passed and it so happened that the rains failed that year. There was acute famine and soon all essential food items were rationed..
One day there was a long queue in front of the grocery shop..
The owner of Hi-Fi equipment shop closed his shop for half day and stood in the queue to secure his rations. When his turn came and as he laid his hand on one of the food items there, the grocery shop owner remarked..
- "Dear! Be careful in handling the items here. They are the costliest ones, you know. It must have struck you now alone as you were familiar with only
- All these years!"

No doubt sir we might modernise but the calamities teaches us the true lessons. Your post reminded me about my post on wounds as it makes ways for light to enter. Had the calamity not come, this fine handling person will never realise the importance of small shops. Enlightening.
