Nice Story..!!

I hired a Plumber to help me repair an old Farmhouse. He already had a Rough and Tiresome day. 

* A Flat Tire.
* His Electric drill fault.
* His old Car Broke down. 
* His Tiffin was Spoilt.
* He lost his Wallet.
* His Bank was calling for Loan repayments.

In all the Tension and Stress he finished my Repairs. Since his Car broke down, I drove him Home.

While I drove him home, he Sat Silently, but I could mark his Agony and Restlessness. On arriving, he invited me in to meet his Family.

As we walked toward the front door, he paused at a Small Tree, touching the tips of the Branches with both hands and closed his Eyes. When the Door opened, he was Smiling and Happy.

In seconds he underwent an Amazing Transformation. He hugged his two small Children, gave his Wife a Kiss, Laughed, and never even slightly made them feel the troubles that he had encountered that day.

I was Astonished and Curious. Seeing my Inquisitive eyes he said, “Oh, that's my Trouble Tree. My best friend. My Trouble Carrier for the Night”.

He replied. "I know I can't help having Troubles on the Job, but one thing's for Sure. Those Troubles don't belong in the House with my Wife and the Children. So I just hang them up on the Tree every Night when I come home and ask God to take care of them. Then in the Morning I pick them up again.”

He smiled and shared a secret. He said, “when I come out in the morning to pick 'em up, there aren't nearly as many as I remember hanging there the night before!!” Life may be a burden of worries, but there is a way to keep our loved ones untouched from these worries.

Time will heal every wound. Whoever is tense today, look for a tree & have a Nice Day!

An Anthropologist proposed one game to the kids of African tribal children.

He placed a basket of fruits near a tree.

And made them stand 100 metres away.

And announced that who ever reaches first would get all the fruits in the basket.

When he said ready steady go...

Do you know what these small children did?

They all caught each other's hands and ran towards the tree together, divided the fruits among them and ate the fruits and enjoyed it.

When the Anthropologist asked them why you did so?

They said 'Ubuntu'...!!

Which meant: 'How can one be happy when all the others are sad?'

Ubuntu in their language means: 'I am because, we are!'

Let's all of us always carry this attitude within us and spread happiness, wherever we go...!!!

LETTER FROM A MOTHER TO A DAUGHTER :

"My dear girl, the day you see I’m getting old, I ask you to please be patient, but most of all, try to understand what I’m going through.

If when we talk, I repeat the same thing a thousand times, don’t interrupt to say: “You said the same thing a minute ago”... Just listen, please. Try to remember the times when you were little and I would read the same story night after night until you would fall asleep.

When I don’t want to take a bath, don’t be mad and don’t embarrass me. Remember when I had to run after you making excuses and trying to get you to take a shower when you were just a girl?

When you see how ignorant I am when it comes to new technology, give me the time to learn and don’t look at me that way... remember, honey, I patiently taught you how to do many things like eating appropriately, getting dressed, combing your hair and dealing with life’s issues every day... the day you see I’m getting old, I ask you to please be patient, but most of all, try to understand what I’m going through.

If I occasionally lose track of what we’re talking about, give me the time to remember, and if I can’t, don’t be nervous, impatient or arrogant. Just know in your heart that the most important thing for me is to be with you.

And when my old, tired legs don’t let me move as quickly as before, give me your hand the same way that I offered mine to you when you first walked.

When those days come, don’t feel sad... just be with me, and understand me while I get to the end of my life with love.

I’ll cherish and thank you for the gift of time and joy we shared. With a big smile and the huge love I've always had for you, I just want to say, I love you... my darling daughter."

Do Not Hurt Yourself..!!

One night a snake while it was looking for food, entered a carpenter’s work shop.

The carpenter, who was a rather untidy man, had left several of his tools lying on the floor. One of them was a saw.

As the snake went round and round the shop, he climbed over the saw, which gave him a little cut.

At once, thinking that the saw was attacking him, he turned around and bit it so hard that his mouth started to bleed.

This made him very angry. He attacked again and again until the saw was covered with blood and seemed to be dead.

Dying from his own wounds, the snake decided to give one last hard bite then turned away. The next morning the carpenter was surprised to find a dead snake on his doorstep.

Lesson to Learn: Sometimes in trying to hurt others, we only hurt ourselves.

Wonderful Story…!!

A woman baked chapatti (roti) for members of her family and an extra one for a hungry passerby. She kept the extra chapatti on the window sill, for whosoever would take it away. Every day, a hunchback came and took away the chapatti. Instead of expressing gratitude, he muttered the following words as he went his way: “The evil you do remains with you: The good you do, comes back to you!” This went on, day after day. Every day, the hunchback came, picked up the chapatti and uttered the words:

“The evil you do, remains with you: The good you do, comes back to you!” The woman felt irritated. “Not a word of gratitude,” she said to herself… “Everyday this hunchback utters this jingle! What does he mean?” One day, exasperated, she decided to do away with him. “I shall get rid of this hunchback,” she said. And what did she do? She added poison to the chapatti she prepared for him!

As she was about to keep it on the window sill, her hands trembled. “What is this I am doing?” she said. Immediately, she threw the chapatti into the fire, prepared another one and kept it on the window sill. As usual, the hunchback came, picked up the chapatti and muttered the words: “The evil you do, remains with you: The good you do, comes back to you!”

The hunchback proceeded on his way, blissfully unaware of the war raging in the mind of the woman. Every day, as the woman placed the chapatti on the window sill, she offered a prayer for her son who had gone to a distant place to seek his fortune. For many months, she had no news of him.. She prayed for his safe return.

That evening, there was a knock on the door. As she opened it, she was surprised to find her son standing in the doorway. He had grown thin and lean. His garments were tattered and torn. He was hungry, starved and weak. As he saw his mother, he said, “Mom, it’s a miracle I’m here. While I was but a mile away, I was so famished that I collapsed. I would have died, but just then an old hunchback passed by. I begged of him for a morsel of food, and he was kind enough to give me a whole chapatti. As he gave it to me, he said, “This is what I eat everyday: today, I shall give it to you, for your need is greater than mine!”

” As the mother heard those words, her face turned pale. She leaned against the door for support. She remembered the poisoned chapatti that she had made that morning. Had she not burnt it in the fire, it would have been eaten by her own son, and he would have lost his life!

It was then that she realized the significance of the words: “The evil you do remains with you: The good you do, comes back to you!” Do good and Don’t ever stop doing good, even if it is not appreciated at that time.

Beautiful Letter written by a Father to his Son..!!

Following is a Letter to his Son from a renowned Hong-Kong TV broadcaster cum Child Psychologist.

The words are actually applicable to all of us, Young or Old, Children or Parents.!

This applies to Daughters too. All parents can use this in their Teachings to their Children.

Dear Son ,

            I am writing this to You because of Three Reasons,

1. Life, Fortune and Mishaps are Unpredictable, nobody knows how long he Lives. Some Words are Better said Early.

2. I am Your Father, and if I don't tell you these, No one else will.

3. What is written is my own Personal bitter Experiences that perhaps could save You a lot of unnecessary Heartaches. 

Remember the following as You go through Life.

1. Do not bear Grudge towards those who are not Good to You. No one has the Responsibility of treating You Well, except Your Mother and I. To those who are Good to You, You have to Treasure it and be Thankful, and ALSO You have to be Cautious, because, Everyone has a Motive for every Move. When a Person is Good to You, it does not mean He really Likes You. You have to be Careful, don't Hastily regard him as a Real Friend.

2. No one is Indispensable, nothing is in the world that You must Possess. Once You understand this Idea, it would be easier for You to go through Life when People around you don't want You anymore, or when You Lose what/who You Love most.

3. Life is Short. When You waste your Life Today, Tomorrow You would find that Life is leaving You. The earlier You Treasure Your Life, the better You enjoy Life.

4.Love is but a Transient Feeling, and this feeling would fade with Time and with one's Mood. If Your so called Loved one leaves You, be Patient, Time will Wash away your Aches and Sadness. Don't over Exaggerate the Beauty and Sweetness of Love, and don't Over Exaggerate the Sadness of falling out of Love.

5.A lot of Successful People did not receive a Good Education, that does not mean that You can be Successful by not Studying Hard! Whatever Knowledge You gain is your Weapon in Life. One can go from Rags to Riches, but one has to start from some Rags!

6.I do not expect You to Financially support me when I am old, neither would I Financially support your whole Life. My responsibility as a supporter ends when You are grown up. After that, You decide whether You want to Travel in a Public transport or in your Limousine, whether Rich or Poor.

7.You Honor Your Words, but don't expect others to be so. You can be Good to People, but don't expect People to be Good to You. If you don't Understand this, You would end up with Unnecessary Troubles.

8. I have bought Lotteries for Umpteen years, but I could never strike any Prize. That shows if you want to be Rich, You have to Work hard! There is no Free Lunch!

9. No matter how much Time I have with You, let's Treasure the Time we have together. We do not know if we would meet again in our next Life.

Your Dad.

Who is a MAN.?

A man is the most beautiful part of God's creation.

He sacrifices his chocolates for his sister.

He sacrifices his dreams for just a smile on his parents' face.

He spends his entire pocket money on buying gifts for the lady he loves just to see her smiling.

He sacrifices his full youth for his wife & children by working late at night without any complaint.

He builds their future by taking loans from banks & repaying them for lifetime.

He struggles a lot & still has to bear scolding from his mother, wife & boss.

His life finally ends up only by compromising for others' happiness.

If he goes out, then he's careless.

If he stays at home, then he's a lazy.

If he scolds children, then he's a monster.

If he doesn't scold, then he's a irresponsible guy.

If he stops wife from working, then he's an insecure guy.

If he doesn't stops wife from working, then he's somebody who lives on wife's earnings.

If he listens to mom, then he's mama's boy.

If he listens to wife, he's wife's slave.

Respect every male in your life. You will never know what he has sacrificed for you.

TEST YOUR THINKING..!!

Read this question, come up with an answer and then scroll down to the bottom for the result. This is not a trick question. It is as it reads. A few people have come up with the correct answer !!

A woman, while at the funeral of her mother, met a guy whom she did not know. She thought this guy was amazing. She believed him to be her dream guy so much that she fell in love with him right there, but never asked for his number . Much as she tried, she could not find him. A few days later she killed her sister.

Question: Why did she kill her sister?

[Give this some thought before you answer, see answer below]

Answer:

She was hoping the guy would appear at the funeral again.

If you answered this correctly, you think like a psychopath. This was a test by a famous American Psychologist used to determine if one has the same mentality as a killer. Many arrested serial killers took part in the test and answered the question correctly.

If you didn't answer the question correctly, good for you. If u did, time to visit a doctor ...!!

Never Criticize Anyone..!!!

"She is pregnant", whispered everyone in the class.
“How could she be such a bitch?" whispered one of the backbenchers.
"We should blame her parents. This is how they raised her."

She heard everything but she pretended not to. The boy she desperately loved had made her see so many dreams and she stupidly believed whatever he said.

She reached home and her dad threw the newspaper down in anger and went inside his room. He used to call her 'my princess' but after this mistake, even the sight of her face disgusted him.

After the incident, her mom had started criticizing her and telling her how because of her deeds they were not able to show their face to the society. But today, she said something she had never said before - her mom told her to kill herself.

She went inside the room and sat on her bed. All the beautiful moments of her life, which she thought she would always cherish, made her cry harder. She wanted to live her life. She wanted to raise that child on her own but the thought of her against the world was too much to handle.

She took a bunch of tablets in her hand and after a few seconds of hesitation, swallowed it all. She slit her wrist several times, crying all the way. But the tears were not because of the physical pain. She soon hanged herself. She didn't want even a slightest chance of survival. The last thing she thought of, before her heart stopped, was the fact that she was murdering her child.

*****

At her funeral, all her classmates arrived with flowers in their hands and tears in their eyes.
Her classmates whispered among themselves on what a great girl she was and how that boy ruined her life.

One of the backbenchers agreed that she was a beautiful and a pure soul.

Her boyfriend said that he regretted his actions and if she was still alive, he would have accepted the child and that he just needed time to think. Near the door stood her father, wiping the tears that flowed down from his eyes.

Near her lifeless body was her mother, crying out the loudest. She was screaming out loud that they would have supported her and that she should have thought of her parents before doing anything. The neighbors nodded and some consoled her with tears.

It took all the Universal’s powers for the corpse to not laugh out loud.

So True..!!

Father And Daughter :

FATHER", he is a best gift of god given to a daughter.

They are the heroes of our life.

From the day we were born he was the one who loved us unconditionally.

They say that from the instant he lays eyes on her, a father adores his daughter..

Whoever she grows up to be, she is always to him that little girl . As we grow old, our father starts spending less and less time with us because of his work..

And we start to think that he does not love us. But, give a thought, if he is not giving you time now does it means he doesn't love us ??

Absolutely not.. he is busy in working so that you will not face any problem in the future. He is working for that day when his daughter will be someone's wife. He want you to give all the happiness which you deserve. He is not spending time with you because he wants to full fill all your requirements. He is earning for you.

Fathers don't buy new clothes for themselves thinking that money can be utilized to buy a dress for her daughter and he can make her happy. Never doubt on the love of your father. He loves you a lot, just he is unable to show it.

Respect your father, whatever you are today is just because of the sacrifice he had made for you.

Love U So Much Dad..!!!

Think Before Talking

Once upon a time an old man spread rumors that his neighbor was a thief. As a result, the young man was arrested. Days later the young man was proven innocent. After been released he sued the old man for wrongly accusing him. In court the old man told the Judge: 'They were just comments, didn't harm anyone.'

The judge, before passing sentence on the case, told the old man to 'Write all the things you said about him on a piece of paper. Cut them up and on the way home; throw the pieces of paper out and come tomorrow to hear the sentence.'

The next day, the judge told the old man: 'Before receiving the sentence, you will have to go out and gather all the pieces of paper that you threw out yesterday.' The old man said: 'I can't do that. The wind spread them and I won't know where to find them.'

The judge then replied: 'The same way, simple comments may destroy the honor of a man to such an extent that one is not able to fix it. If you can't speak well of someone, rather don't say anything wrong...

'Let's all be masters of our mouths, so that we won't be slaves of our words.'

A Good One..!!

After 37 years of marriage. Jake dumped his wife for his Young secretary.

His new girlfriend demanded that they live in Jake and Edith's multi-million dollar home and since the man's lawyers were a little better he prevailed.

He gave Edith his now ex-wife just 3 days to move out. She spent the 1st day packing her belongings into boxes crates and suitcases.

On the 2nd day she had to movers come and collect her things.

On the 3rd day she sat down for the last time at their beautiful dining room table by candlelight put on some soft background music and feasted on a pound of shrimp a jar of caviar and a bottle of Chardonnay.

When she had finished she went into each and every room and stuffed half-eaten shrimp shells dipped in caviar into the hollow of all of the curtain rods. She then cleaned up the kitchen and left.

When the husband returned with his new girlfriend all was bliss for the first few days.

Then slowly the house began to smell. They tried everything cleaning mopping and airing the place out. Vents were checked for dead rodents and carpets were cleaned. Air fresheners were hung everywhere.
Exterminators were brought in to set off gas canisters during which they had to move out for a few days and in the end they even replaced the expensive wool carpeting. NOTHING WORKED.

People stopped coming over to visit. Repairman refused to work in the house.

The Maid quit.

Finally they could not take the stench any longer and decided to move.

A month later even through they had cut their price in half they could not find a buyer for their stinky house.

Word got out and eventually even the local realtors refused to return their calls. Finally they had to borrow a huge sum of money from the bank to purchase a new place.

The ex-wife called the man and asked how things were going. He told her the saga of the rotting house. She listened politely and said that she missed her old home terribly and would be willing to reduce her divorce settlement in exchange for getting the house back.

Knowing his ex-wife had no idea how bad the smell was he agreed on a price that was about 1/10th of what the house has been worth, but only if she were to sign the papers that very day. She agreed and within the hour his lawyers delivered the paperwork.

A week later the man and his girlfriend stood smiling as they watched the moving company pack everything to take to their new home.

INCLUDING THE CURTAIN RODS. :)

Perfect Man..!!!

There was a man who remained bachelor his whole life because he was in a search of a perfect woman. When he was 70 somebody asked,"You have been travelling and travelling -from New York to Delhi, from Delhi to Rome, from Rome to London, and you have been searching. Could you not find a perfect woman? Not even one?"

The sad old man replied,"Yes, once I did. One day, long ago, I came across a perfect woman."

The inquirer asked,"Then what happened? Why didn't you get married?"

The old man replied with a lower tone,"What to do? She was looking for the perfect man."

When looking for perfection in others, how blind you are to your own imperfection.

JRD Tata had a friend who used to say that he misplaces and loses his pen very often.

He will use only very cheap pens so that he need not worry about losing them. He was worried about carelessness habit.

JRD suggested to him to buy the costliest pen he could afford and see what happens.

He did that and purchased a 22 carat gold Cross pen. After nearly six months JRD met him and asked him if he continues to misplace his pen.

His friend said that he is very careful about his costly pen and he is surprised how he has changed!

JRD explained to him that the value of the pen made the difference and there was nothing wrong with him as a person!

This is what happens in our life.

We are careful with things which we value most.

* If we value our health, we will be careful about what and how we eat;
* if we value our friends, we will treat them with respect;
* if we value money, we will be careful while spending;
* if we value our time, we will not waste it.
*if we value relationship we will not break it.

Carefulness is a basic trait all of us have,we know when to be careful!

Carelessness only shows what we don't value......!!

Have a wonderful and careful life...

Good Story Worth reading...!!

Many hundreds of years ago in a small Italian town, a merchant had the misfortune of owing a large sum of money to the moneylender. The moneylender, who was old and ugly, fancied the merchant’s beautiful daughter so he proposed a bargain. He said he would forgo the merchant’s debt if he could marry the daughter. Both the merchant and his daughter were horrified by the proposal.

The moneylender told them that he would put a black pebble and a white pebble into an empty bag. The girl would then have to pick one pebble from the bag.If she picked the black pebble, she would become the moneylender’s wife and her father’s debt would be forgiven. If she picked the white pebble she need not marry him and her father’s debt would still be forgiven. But if she refused to pick a pebble, her father would be thrown into jail.

They were standing on a pebble strewn path in the merchant’s garden. As they talked, the moneylender bent over to pick up two pebbles. As he picked them up, the sharp-eyed girl noticed that he had picked up two black pebbles and put them into the bag. He then asked the girl to pick her pebble from the bag.

What would you have done if you were the girl? If you had to advise her, what would you have told her? Careful analysis would produce three possibilities:

1. The girl should refuse to take a pebble.

2. The girl should show that there were two black pebbles in the bag and expose the moneylender as a cheat.

3. The girl should pick a black pebble and sacrifice herself in order to save her father from his debt and imprisonment.

The girl puts her hand into the moneybag and drew out a pebble. Without looking at it, she fumbled and let it fall onto the pebble-strewn path where it immediately became lost among all the other pebbles.
