Motivating Story of A Milk Boy

The Milk Boy and a Glass of Milk

This is a Highly Motivating Story of a Milk Boy who never forgot a good Deed done to him in his childhood and repayed that person for that one good deed of offering just a Glass of Milk




The Story of A Glass of Milk
It was early in the morning. There was a knock at the Door. She opened the door to pickup the milk bottles. But she was amazed to find the Milk boy standing there. He was only as old as her own sons. He usually leaves the milk bottles and goes away. So she had never seen him before. They looked at each other. She noticed something odd in him. He looked tired or unwell. He requested for a glass of water and without saying anything she went inside.


A Glass of Milk to the Milk Boy.
She was returning from her kitchen with a glass of water for the milk boy when she thought about how he looked. He was looking pale and unwell. Probably he has not had breakfast either. She went back to kitchen and picked up a glass of milk instead of the water and Offered it to the Milk Boy.


The Milk Boy is Surprised at the Glass of Milk
As he waited hungry and thirsty, she came with the tray on which stood a big and beautiful glass tumbler filled to the brim with white milk. He was surprised and his heart raced. How can it be? The milk he supplied was not bad at all.


She offers the Milk Boy a Glass of Milk.
The milk boy was having totally embarrassed look on his face. She took the glass of milk and offered it to the milk boy and told him to drink. The boy was again surprised. The milk was as fresh as it can be and it was sweet from the sugar she had added liberaly. For a hungry and thirst dehydrated body of a milk boy from a poor family this was a full meal because he could not afford to drink milk with his meagre earnings as a milk boy.


She Forgets the Milk Boy.
The milk boy said, "Thankyou for your Kindness, Ma'am" and vanished as fast as he had appeared at her door. After a few days She forgot about the milk boy too.


She has Cancer and is in Hospital.
She was old now and had cancer. Her husband died long ago and her children left for greener pastures never to come back. She was all alone and could barely make her ends meet with the meagre pension she gets on behalf of her dead husband. Her kind neighbours admitted her to the hospital.


Her Neighbours Were Not So Kind.
The doctors diagnosed her cancer and decided to do an operation. But the large amount of money required had to come from nowhere. Her neighbours were not so kind either. She cursed, "God, why did you give children?"


She Remembers the Milk Boy.
The Doctor came and took her to the operation theatre. It was a successful operation and the doctor told her that she will live for many more years. The a nurse came and gave her the bill. After seeing the bill she wondered how will she pay up such a large bill. That is when she saw a small hand written note under on the other side of the bill which said, "Fully Paid with a Glass of Milk, The Milk Boy."


Who Paid the Bill?
She asked the nurse. Who paid my bill?  The nurse looked at the bill and recognized the signature below it and said, "Your Doctor, Ma'am."  Today after so many years she had a reason to remember her milk boy story. She prayed, "God, Thankyou for your kindness."
