How Humility Saved Her Life by prest(m): 7:38pm On Jul 01, 2015
Samira worked at a meat distribution factory. One day, when she finished with her work schedule, she went into the meat cold room (freezer) to inspect something, but in a moment of bad luck, the door closed and she was locked inside with no help in sight.
Although she screamed and knocked with all her might, her cries went unheard as no one could hear her.
Most of the workers had already gone, and outside the cold room it's impossible to hear what was going on inside. Five hours later, whilst Samira was on the verge of death, the security guard of the factory eventually opened the door. Samira got miraculously saved from dying that day. When she later asked the security guard how he had come to open the door, which wasn't his usual work routine. His explanation: "I've been working in this factory for 35 years, hundreds of workers come in and out every day, but you're one of the few who greet me in the morning and say goodbye to me every night when leaving after work. Many treat me as if I'm invisible. Today, as you reported for work, like all other days, you greeted me in your simple manner 'Hello'. But this evening after working hours, I curiously observed that I had not heard your "Bye, see you tomorrow". Hence, I decided to check around the factory.
I look forward to your 'hi' and 'bye' everyday because they remind me that I am someone. By not hearing your farewell today, I knew something had happened. That's why I started searching every where for you.
Moral lesson to reflect upon: Be humble, love and respect those around you. Try to have an impact on people who cross your path every day, you never know what tomorrow will bring or can save you from danger.
Never forget those who are there for you when you have no form or comely. Let this story be an inspiration.
Have a blessed day.
