Kept Secret but not Forgotten [EPUB ebook] 

Is the good deed worth it if it remains a secret? It is indeed meaningful and significant both for the one who reaches out a helping hand and for the one who takes it. "Kept Secret but not Forgotten" is an enlightening, positive short tale consisting of three separate stories which will remind us how important it is to be good to each other. It is even greater when the good deed is done not only outwardly before the wide world. So if you want to draw inspiration, this tale would be the right choice. –
