15. A Glass of Milk #Inspirational Moral Stories
Laura had taken up a part-time job to pay for her studies.
She sold goods from door to door. One afternoon, Laura was feeling thirsty. She
decided to ask for a glass of water when she reached the next house. When she
rang the doorbell, a young lady opened the door. "Can I have a glass of
water, please?" said Laura. The woman thought, 'This child must be tired
and thirsty. A glass of water will not do.' So she brought her a large glass of
milk. Laura thanked the woman and left. Many years later, Laura completed her
studies. She was now a doctor. One day, a seriously ailing woman came to see
Laura. It was the same woman who had given her a glass of milk many years ago!
Laura cured the woman. When the woman asked for the bill, Laura wrote on it,
"Paid with a glass of milk."
Moral of the Story: The moral of the story is that small acts of kindness and
generosity can have a lasting impact, and helping others when they are in need
can create meaningful connections and gratitude.
