A picture Is Worth A Thousand Words: The Wool Stocking

avatar

In the city of Doka, there lived a woman who was generous to the poor. She was a knitter who made different types of clothes, bags, and socks from knitting. Even though she had no wealth, she contributed to the poor by offering them some of her works for free. The News of Adasa had reached her who had just given birth to a baby boy. Phoebe was happy to hear the news of her safe delivery and she gifted to Adasa one of her best wool sock she had knitted

It was a cold season, so the sock was of great use for the baby. Adasa was happy for the gift knowing she couldn't have afforded a sock judging from her financial state. She thanked Phoebe for her generosity and was particularly happy for the color which was her favorite. The stockings were Phoebe's favorite, she has designed it to fit both as a sock and a shoe, Adasa was happy for its multipurpose use. She never kept it so far, it was always kept in her sitting room on a sofa and it became David's favorite, Adasa's son as he grew in age.


What I see From The Picture And What I feel

I see wool stockings on a sofa, a cat lying on the other side of the room. The stocking is made with red and white wool and the size seems to be for a baby. The wool might have been gifted or bought.

Cold seasons are always harsh and people die from inadequate care. Phoebe's generous gesture saved both Adasa and her baby, which is heartwarming. Nicely done. !LUV

To gift such kind of a gift simply means understanding the situation of the the person receiving the gift. This is a lesson to readers.

What a sweet gesture. It relaxes to create something and brings happiness if this gift is liked, accepted and used well.
The baby has a good start into its first winter.

Thank you for joining pic1000.

Generosity and gratefulness. That is what is woven throughout your story. Each lady benefited from learning of the other. Phoebe will receive her blessing. Although not able financially to help others, she gave willingly that which she could do with her hands. Sometimes a person thinks they can't help unless they have an abundance of money.

Kindness can go a long way to helping someone in ways the giver may not know or understand.

Thanks for sharing this story. A lovely read that I enjoyed. Take care.

Rightly said, giving doesn't have to be when one has much, even the little could go a long way and they both had their blessings one way or another
