In a world that often feels cold and distant, stories like this mother remind us of the warmth of human kindness.
Siti, a regular mom with an extraordinary heart, has been making waves online for her simple yet profoundly compassionate gesture: she packs not one, but two sets of school lunches – one for her child and another for her child’s friend, who tragically lost their mother.
Supermom packs extra lunches for her child’s orphaned friend
Siti’s story, originally shared on the Facebook page ‘Masak Apa Tak Jadi Harini’, goes beyond just providing extra food.
It’s about understanding and empathy.
She noticed that her child’s friend, an 11-year-old orphan, sometimes went to religious school without pocket money.
So, what does Siti do? She steps up – not just by sharing her child’s meal, but also by giving extra pocket money to the friend.
A picture worth a thousand words
Accompanying her post, Siti shared a picture that tugged at heartstrings: two plastic containers, each filled with a wholesome meal of white rice, fried fish, shrimp sambal, and fruits.
It’s a simple image, but it speaks volumes about the love and care she puts into these meals.
“I know that sometimes they go to religious school without any pocket money. Sometimes my child shares their packed meals with their friend, and sometimes I give extra pocket money for their friend as well.”
Siti shared how touched she was when she found out her child’s friend had not only enjoyed the meal but had praised its deliciousness.
Netizens’ prayers and praises flood in
True to the spirit of a tight-knit online community, netizens flooded the comments section with prayers and praises for Siti.
Many highlighted her empathy and selflessness, with some even hoping she meets her child’s friend’s mother in heaven, acknowledging the depth of her kindness.
“I wonder what good deeds the deceased mother of your child’s friend must have done. To have a friend with a mother as kind as you.”
“Just like my child.. They are friends with an orphan.. Every day when I pack meals, I always include extra food so they can share and eat together…”
Siti’s actions remind us of the power of community support and the impact of small acts of kindness.
In a world where we often rush through our days, Siti shows us the importance of stopping to consider those around us, especially the young and vulnerable.
