This girl has always been following me lately every time I pass near their area whenever I take a walk in the late afternoon. I often give her a few coins when she would point to her stomach and mouth which I presumed means that she is hungry. A few days ago, I have not been able to take a walk due to the workload and she must have missed me. This morning somebody knocked on the front door and I was surprised to find this deaf mute girl smiling at me. I can't ask her how she was able to find me. It seems to me that she just wanted to see me. It has touched my heart that this girl will choose me to be a friend. It seems strange but how on earth was she able to find me when she has no capacity to ask for directions?

You will be blessed with all the good things you do to others. When we help other people, God will shower us more blessings. And the more blessings when we help those who are physically impaired. I'm glad to know people like you who are wiling to share even a small amount to this girl. God bless you and your family always!

i always feel very touched whenever i read this kind of story... i think it is a privelege to be able to make friend with a handicap person... we have the opportunity to show our love and also learn so much about their will and determination to live despite of the handicap... i hope you will treasure your friendship with this girl... take care and have a nice day...

Deaf-mute people still possess the capacity to ask for directions. In your friend's case, she might have asked someone who understands or know how to use sign language. Or she might have also written down her question on a piece of paper and just showed it to someone. That's actually the easier way to communicate with a deaf-mute. Converse through written words. It's also possible that she had observed you and knows where you live. People do seem to be capable of a lot of things when they are really bent on doing it :)

Wow... It's so amazing. But, I have story about how people who don't know where we lived but could find us. In my country Indonesia there is a tribe called Badui. From the story, If we make relationship to close to them, they will find where we lived even we never tell them where we lived. And you know what? They search and go to our address by foot.
