Gandhi and the shoe sole

It was said that Mahatma Gandhi was running quickly to catch the train, which had begun to move, but one of his shoes fell off while he was on the train. He took off his second shoe and threw it close to the first individual. His friends asked him, "Why did you throw your other shoe?" Gandhi said: "I wanted the poor man who finds the shoe to find the two individuals to be able to use them, he will not benefit if there is one individual, and I will not benefit from it too!
