(Got this sweet thing in my mailbox)


It was a sports stadium. Eight Children were standing on the track to participate in the running event.

* Ready!
* Steady!!
* Bang!!!

With the sound of Toy pistol, all eight girls started running. Hardly have they covered ten to fifteen steps, one of the smaller girls slipped and fell down, due to bruises and pain she started crying.

When the other seven girls heard her, they stopped running, stood for a while and turned back, they all ran back to the place where the girl fell down. One among them bent, picked and kissed the girl gently and enquired 'has the pain reduced'. All seven girls lifted the fallen girl, pacified her, two of them held the girl firmly and they all seven joined hands together and walked together and reached the winning post.

Officials were shocked.

Clapping of thousands of spectators filled the stadium. Many eyes were filled with tears and perhaps it had reached GOD too!

YES. This happened in Hyderabad [INDIA], recently! The sport was conducted by National Institute of Mental Health. All these special girls had come to participate in this event and they are spastic children.

Yes, they were mentally retarded. What did they teach this world?
Teamwork ?
Humanity ?
Equality among all ?????

Successful people help others who are slow in learning so that they are not felt far behind.
