Question

The little swallow says, “It is curious, but I feel quite warm now, although it is so cold.” Have you ever had such a feeling? Share
your experience with your friends.

Answer

Yes, I have experienced this feeling. It happens when we do a good deed or help someone in need.

My experience:
Once, during a very cold winter evening, I saw a small boy shivering on the street. I went home and, with my parents' permission, gave him one of my old blankets and some hot tea. Seeing the joy and relief on his face gave me a sense of inner satisfaction and mental peace. Even though the weather was freezing, I felt a strange warmth inside my heart because I had helped someone. Doing a good deed brings a kind of emotional happiness that makes us forget our physical discomfort.
