One day as usual it was about 7:00am, he hired the service of a taxi driver to go to work. Along the way as the car was moving, he saw an old woman of about 80 years old who was walking alone the road with her walking (staff). The weather was blowing dry and cold and the thing affected him so much that he asked the driver to stop to pick up the old woman and drop her off her destination without minding his work.

The driver did just as he said, "Ma, get in, we'll drop you off where you are going". She refused to get into the cab else it be kidnappers but the man insisted and convinced her until she finally agreed. After they got to where she lived, she went down in front of a mini estate the man and the cab departed but getting to their destinations, the man releases that the old woman had forgotten her walking stick (staff) in the cab so the next day he went to where the old woman lives to return her staff but what he saw marveled his entire life.

When he got to the yard where the old woman stopped, he found another older woman who was more older than the one he met or looking for, so he began to described the old woman he's for. Meanwhile, the older woman asked him to wait for her for some minutes.
