The summer heat seeped into the house, drying everything in its scorching glare. Yet, amidst that heat, a tiny clock kept ticking—just outside my window, two small sparrows were tirelessly swaying, trying to build their home in the relentless summer sun.
For the past two days, I had been watching them. One by one, they brought twigs, working diligently, yet every time they tried to form their nest, it kept falling apart. Seeing their persistence, a feeling stirred within me. I picked up an unused box and modified one side to create a safe shelter for them.
At first, the sparrows were cautious. They circled the box, peeked inside, and hesitated—"Is this safe?" But slowly, they began to accept it, turning the box into their new home.
Every day, I watched as the box filled up, the sparrows chirping happily, a new vibrant world thriving just outside my window. Then another thought struck me—"They will need water!" So, I placed a small bowl filled with water beside them.
Soon enough, I saw them quenching their thirst, carrying water in their tiny beaks to their nest. Watching this filled my heart with an indescribable peace.
It was a small act, yet the emotion behind it was profound. The joy I couldn’t express in words echoed in the cheerful chirping of the sparrows. Doing something, no matter how small, for someone else brings a happiness beyond words.
Is there something small you can do for someone today? Perhaps it will bring you the same deep, heartfelt peace!
