I spoke to a lady today who spoke of her grandfather to me. The relationship with her grandfather was very close,and though the family did not have much(I think she was originally from the Indian Sub-Continent) ,he encouraged her by saying to her.
“Take One Step, and I will take a hundred steps for you.”
Her grandfather is long dead,but at the weekend,she was at one of her religious meetings, and it was suggested that the devotees do a hundred steps a day and dedicate it to one of their gods.
She was very excited about this prospect when she spoke to me. She had already been trying to do ten thousand steps a day for fitness.
Excitedly ,she told me that she would add another 100 a day, and it would be paying forward for a better future,that with her late Grandfather’s help, she would be able to offer a million steps to her diety for a better World by the target date of September 2024.
I thought it quite wonderful and such a pure thought and effort to make things better. I was happy to have a conversation with her today and walked away very happy.
