Evening dinner with a father. What happened at the restaurant was simply unexpected

TEST

The man took his elderly father to a restaurant. The father was very old and weak. As he ate, pieces of food fell on his shirt and pants.

People turned around and looked at him in disgust, but his son remained calm. When dinner was over, the son carefully helped his father stand up and took him to the toilet.

There he cleaned his father’s trousers and shirt, helped to wash, combed his white hair with love, and helped to put on his glasses. When they went to the restaurant hall, there was complete silence.

At that time, an old man amongst the diners called out to the son and asked him, “Don’t you think you have left something behind?”.

The son replied, “No sir, I haven’t”.

The old man retorted, “Yes, you have!

The restaurant went silent.

Then the man exclaimed. “You left something for everyone sitting in this room. You have left a lesson for every son and daughter and hope for every parent”

People in the hall suddenly fell silent. Each of them was ashamed that he was bothering that father and son.

After all, one of the greatest honours that fate can give us is to take care of elderly parents, the people who gave us their time, health and money.
