Once, a gentel man was traveling on a train. He left thirsty and got down at a station at in search of water. At the exact moment he reached the water tab, the engine whisted and began to run. The man quickly ran back but unfortunately, he had already missed the train.
It was getting dark and the decided to spend the night at the station.
The next morning, the man enquired the ticket salesmen about the next scheduled train. He was informed that the following planned train won't be coming for anather day.
Thus, he decided to find a place to stay for the night. He went to the nearby lodges to ask for a room but found none. It was beinning to get dark and the man had no luck finding a room.
At last, he reached a small hut. The man asked the owner, whom was a villager, if he could stay in the hut for just a day. The ownner kindly agreed. The owner was generous enough to serve him food during his stay and did not ask nor expected anything in return.
At the stroke of seven, the man had heard a knock at the door. The villager gently opened the door. A man dressed in gaudy clothing aggressively entered and ragingly demanded the owner to pay back his debts.
Hearing their conversation, the man realized the owner was in desperate need of money. The next morning, the man slipped a pocket of golden coins onto the table in his room and left.
Amidst cleaning the room, the owner stumbled upon the bag of coins and a note addressed to him. It read "you helped me but did not expect anything in return. Now, it is my turn. Take this bag of money and let me help you. For your kindness, It do not expect anything in return."
