Once upon a time there was one storyteller. After getting tired of telling old fabricated stories, he left his house in search of a real life story.



He reached a village and took a cottage for rent. After roaming in the village throughout the month, in search of true story, the storyteller couldn`t find one. Disappointed, he decided to stop his search. The next day, while sitting in the cottage, he suddenly heard a voice - a woman was yelling at someone. The voice was coming from the big wall behind his cottage. He tried to hear the conversation; it sounded like the woman was abusing her daughter-in-law. The storyteller didn`t like it but he was happy to finally get his story. Listening to the conversations each day he added them to his story. Though he couldn`t see the characters of his story, he started hating the Mother-in-law, as she seemed to be villain.



Now it was time to finalize the end of the story. But before he did, the storyteller wanted to see the characters once, so he climbed the wall.



There he saw the mother-in-law sitting in a wheelchair. It seemed she was handicapped and that the daughter-in-law was resting nearby.

He saw the old lady trying to get a food item lying on the table near her chair. But because of her condition, she couldn`t reach it and the daughter-in-law looked like she was enjoying the old lady`s helplessness. Suddenly the old lady fell from the chair and started abusing her daughter in-law.



The storyteller went back and quickly changed the ending of the story and was stunned at how different it was compared to what he originally thought it would be. Truly he had found both a real life story and a real life lesson.



Moral: Never judge a situation unless you know all the aspects well. Sometimes you can`t imagine your distance from the reality.

An old man lived alone in a village. He wanted to spade his potato
garden, but it was very hard work. His only son, who would have helped
him, was in prison.
The old man wrote a letter to his son and mentioned his situation:



Dear Son,

I am feeling pretty bad because it looks like I won’t be able to plant
my potato garden this year. I hate to miss doing the garden, because
your mother always loved planting time. I’m just getting too old to be
digging up a garden plot. If you were here, all my troubles would be
over. I know you would dig the plot for me, if you weren’t in prison.

Love,
Dad

Shortly, the old man received this telegram: “For Heaven’s sake, Dad,
don’t dig up the garden!! That’s where I buried the GUNS!!” At 4 a.m.
the next morning, a dozen FBI agents and local police
officers showed up and dug up the entire garden without finding any
guns.
Confused, the old man wrote another note to his son telling him what
happened, and asked him what to do next.

His son’s reply was: “Go ahead and plant your potatoes, Dad.. It’s the
best I could do for you from here.”



Moral:

NO MATTER WHERE YOU ARE IN THE WORLD, IF YOU HAVE DECIDED TO DO
SOMETHING DEEP FROM YOUR HEART YOU CAN DO IT. IT IS THE THOUGHT THAT
MATTERS. NOT WHERE YOU ARE OR WHERE THE PERSON IS.

Politics is not a SERVICE anymore but a PROFESSION.

"Life returns whatever you give it“

A successful business man was growing old and knew it was time to choose a successor to take over the business. Instead of choosing one of his directors or his children, he decided to do something different. He called all the young executives in his company together. He said, “it is time for me to step down and choose the next CEO. I have decided to choose one of you.

“The young executives were shocked, but the boss continued. “I am going to give each one of you a seed today - one very special seed. Want you to plant the seed, water it, and come back here one year from today with what you have grown from the seed I have given you. I will then judge the plants that you bring, and the one I choose will be the next CEO.”

One man, named Jim, was there that day and he, like the others, received a seed. He went home and excitedly, told his wife the story. She helped him get a pot, soil and compost and he planted the seed. Every day, he would water it and watch to see if it had grown. After about three weeks, some of the other executives began to talk about their seeds and the plants that were beginning to grow.  Jim kept checking his seed, but nothing ever grew. Three weeks, four weeks, five weeks went by, still nothing.

By now, others were talking about their plants, but Jim didn’t have a plant and he felt like a failure.  Six months went by — still nothing in Jim’s pot. He just knew he had killed his seed. Everyone else had trees and tall plants, but he had nothing. Jim didn’t say anything to his colleagues, however… he just kept watering and fertilizing the soil - he so wanted the seed to grow.

A year finally went by and all the young Executives of the company brought their plants to the CEO for inspection. Jim told his wife that he wasn’t going to take an empty pot.  But she asked him to be honest about what happened. Jim felt sick to his stomach, it was going to be the most embarrassing moment of his life, but he knew his wife was right.

He took his empty pot to the board room. When Jim arrived, he was amazed at the variety of plants grown by the other executives. They were beautiful — in all shapes and sizes.

Jim put his empty pot on the floor and many of his colleagues laughed, a few felt sorry for him!  When the CEO arrived, he surveyed the room and greeted his young executives.  Jim just tried to hide in the back. “My, what great plants, trees, and flowers you have grown,” said the CEO. “Today one of you will be appointed the next CEO!”

All of a sudden, the CEO spotted Jim at the back of the room with his empty pot. He ordered the financial director to bring him to the front. Jim was terrified. He thought, “the CEO knows I’m a failure! Maybe he will have me fired!” When Jim got to the front, the CEO asked him what had happened to his seed - Jim told him the story. 

The CEO asked everyone to sit down except Jim. he looked at Jim, and then announced to the young executives, “behold your next chief executive officer! his name is Jim!” Jim couldn’t believe it. Jim couldn’t even grow his seed. “How could he be the new CEO?” The others said.

Then the CEO said, “one year ago, I gave everyone in this room a seed. I told you to take the seed, plant it, water it, and bring it back to me today. But I gave you all boiled seeds; they were dead - it was not possible for them to grow.

All of you, except Jim, have brought me trees and plants and flowers. When you found that the seed would not grow, you substituted another seed for the one I gave you.  Jim was the only one with the courage and honesty to bring me a pot with my seed in it. Therefore, he is the one who will be the new Chief Executive Officer!”

·         If you plant honesty, you will reap trust 

·         If you plant goodness, you will reap friends

·         If you plant humility, you will reap greatness

·         If you plant perseverance, you will reap contentment

·         If you plant consideration, you will reap perspective

·         If you plant hard work, you will reap success

·         If you plant forgiveness, you will reap reconciliation

·         If you plant faith in god , you will reap a harvest

So, be careful what you plant now; it will determine what you will reap later.. “Whatever you give to life, life gives you back”

Celebrate Life… Great Week ahead…

A man sat at a metro station in Washington DC and started to play the violin; it was a cold January morning. He played six Bach pieces for about 45 minutes. During that time, since it was rush hour, it was calculated that thousand of people went through the station, most of them on their way to work.

 Three minutes went by and a middle aged man noticed there was musician playing. He slowed his pace and stopped for a few seconds and then hurried up to meet his schedule..  
A minute later, the violinist received his first dollar tip: a woman threw the money in the till and without stopping continued to walk.
A few minutes later, someone leaned against the wall to listen to him, but the man looked at his watch and started to walk again. Clearly he was late for work.  
The one who paid the most attention was a 3 year old boy. His mother tagged him along, hurried but the kid stopped to look at the violinist. Finally the mother pushed hard and the child continued to walk turning his head all the time.
This action was repeated by several other children. All the parents, without exception, forced them to move on.. 
 
In the 45 minutes the musician played, only 6 people stopped and stayed for a while. About 20 gave him money but continued to walk their normal pace. He collected $32. When he finished playing and silence took over, no one noticed it. No one applauded, nor was there any recognition. No one knew this but the violinist was Joshua Bell, one of the best musicians in the world. He played one of the most intricate pieces ever written with a violin worth 3.5 million dollars. 
Two days before his playing in the subway, Joshua Bell sold out at a theatre in Boston and the seats average $100. 
This is a real story. Joshua Bell playing incognito in the metro station was organized by the Washington Post as part of a social experiment about perception, taste and priorities of people. The outlines were: in a commonplace environment at an inappropriate hour:  

Do we perceive beauty? 
Do we stop to appreciate it? Do we recognize the talent in an unexpected context? 
One of the possible conclusions from this experience could be: 
If we do not have a moment to stop and listen to one of the best musicians in the world playing the best music ever written, how many other things are we missing?

Hey ppl, chek dis out…..





I was a very happy person. My wonderful girl friend and I had been
dating for over a year, and so we decided to get married.
 
There was only one little thing bothering me… It was her beautiful
younger sister. My prospective sister-in-law was twenty-two, wore very
tight miniskirts, and was very sexy. I always felt she had a crush on
me.
 
One day her ‘little’ sister called and asked me to come over to check
the wedding invitations. She was alone when I arrived, and she whispered
to me that she had feelings and desires for me that she couldn’t
overcome. She told me that she wanted me just once before I got married
and committed my life to her sister.
 
Well, I was in total shock, and couldn’t say a word. She said, ‘I’mgoing
upstairs to my bedroom, and if you want one last wild fling, just come
up and get me..’ I was stunned and frozen in shock as I watched her go
up the stairs.
 
I stood there for a moment, then turned and made a bee line straight to
the front door.I opened the door, and headed straight towards my car.
Low and behold, my entire future family was standing outside, all
clapping!
With tears in his eyes, my future father-in-law hugged me and said, ‘We
are very happy that you have passed our little test. We couldn’t ask for
a better man for our daughter. Welcome to the family.

‘Moral of the story :
