It was a sports stadium. Eight Children were standing on the track to participate in a running event. * Ready! * Steady! * Bang !!! With the sound of Toy pistol, All eight girls started running. Hardly had they covered ten to fifteen steps, when one of the smaller girls slipped and fell down, Due to bruises and pain she started crying. When the other seven girls heard the little girl cry they stopped running, stood for a while and turned back. Seeing the girl on the track they all ran to help. One among them bent down, picked her up and kissed her gently And enquired as to how she was. They then lifted the fallen girl pacifying her. Two of them held her firmly while all seven joined hands together and walked together towards the winning post... There was pin drop silence at the spectator's stand. Officials were shocked. Slow claps multiplied to thousands as the spectators stood up in appreciation. Many eyes were filled with tears YES. This happened in Hyderabad [INDIA], recently! The sport was conducted by National Institute of Mental Health. All these special girls had come to participate in this event They were spastic children. Yes, they were Mentally Challenged.

Certainly an amazing play! Competition all on a sudden changed to group help for the distressed! I may say that this is a case of mentally forward children!! Thanks for this nice posting and have a good day!

Isn't it wonderful that children who have lost so much, being mentally challenged have retain the basic kindness which the rest of us, (normal? ) people often have forgotten. It makes you wonder who is the handicapped here.
