bROTHERLY LOVE | A TOUCHING STORy

READ THE FOLLOWING STORY SLOWLY, IT'S A TOUCHING STORY I have a brother who is 3 years younger than me. I wanted to buy a handkerchief, which all girls around me seemed to have. So, one day I stole 50 cents from my father's drawer. Father had discovered about the stolen money right away. He made me and my younger brother kneel against the wall as he held a bamboo stick in his hand. 'Who stole the money?' he asked. I was stunned, too afraid to talk. Neither of us admitted to the fault, so he said, 'Fine, if nobody wants to admit, you two should be beaten!' He lifted up the bamboo stick. Suddenly, my younger brother gripped father's hand and said, Dad, I was the one who did it!' The long stick smacked my brother's back repeatedly. Father was so angry that he kept on whipping my brother until he lost his breath. After that, he sat down on our stone bed and scolded my brother, 'You have learned to steal from your own house now. What other embarrassing things will you are possibly doing in the future? You should be beaten to death, you shameless thief!' That night, my mother and I hugged my brother. His body was full of wounds from the beating but he never shed a single tear. In the middle of the night, all of sudden, I cried out loudly. My brother covered my mouth with his little hand and said, Sis, now don't cry anymore. Everything has happened.' I still hate myself for not having enough courage to admit what I did. Years went by, but the incident still seemed like it just happened yesterday. I will never forget my brother's expression when he protected me. That year, my brother was 8 years old and I was 11 years old. When my brother was in his last year of secondary school, he was accepted in an upper secondary school in the central. At the same time, I was accepted into a university in the province. That night, father squatted in the yard, smoking, packet by packet. I could hear him ask my mother, 'Both of our children, they have good results? Very good results?' Mother wiped off her tears and sighed,' What is the use? How can we possibly finance both of them?' At that time, my brother walked out, he stood in front of father and said, 'Dad, I don't want to continue my study anymore, I have read enough books.' Father swung his hand and slapped my brother on his face. 'Why do you have a spirit so damn weak? Even if it means I have to beg for money on the streets, I will send you two to school until you have both finished your studies!' And then, he started to knock on every house in the village to borrow money. I stuck out my hand as gently as I can to my brother's swollen face, and told him, 'A boy has to continue his study; if not; he will not be able to overcome this poverty we are experiencing. ' I, on the other hand, had decided not to further my study at the university. Nobody knew that on the next day, before dawn, my brother left the house with a few pieces of worn-out clothes and a few dry beans. He sneaked to my side of the bed and left a note on my pillow; 'Sis, getting into a university is not easy. I will go find a job and I will send money to you.' I held the note while sitting on my bed, and cried until I lost my voice. That year, my brother was 17 years old; I was 20 years old. With the money father borrowed from the whole village, and the money my brother earned from carrying cement on his back at a construction site, finally, I managed to get to the third year of my study in the university. One day, while I was studying in my room, my roommate came in and told me, 'There's a villager waiting for you outside!' Why would there be a villager looking for me? I walked out, and I saw my brother from afar. His whole body was covered with dirt, dust, cement and sand. I asked him, 'Why did you not tell my roommate that you are my brother?' He replied with a smile,' Look at my appearance. What will they think if they would know that I am your brother? Won't they laugh at you?' I felt so touched, and tears filled my eyes. I swept away dirt and dust from my brother's body. And told him with a lump in my throat, 'I don't care what people would say! You are my brother no matter what your appearance is?' From his pocket, he took out a butterfly hair clip. He put it on my hair and said, 'I saw all the girls in town are wearing it. So, I think you should also have one.' I could not hold back myself anymore. I pulled my brother into my arms and cried. That year, my brother was 20 years old; I was 23 years old. I noticed that the broken window was repaired the first time I brought my boyfriend home. The house was scrubbed cleaned. After my boyfriend left, I danced like a little girl in front of my mother, 'Mom, you didn't have to spend so much time cleaning the house!' But she told me with a smile, 'It was your brother who went home early to clean the house. Didn't you see the wound on his hand? He hurt his hand while he was replacing the window.' I went into my brother's bedroom. Looking at his thin face, I felt like hundreds of needles pricked in my heart. I applied some ointment on his wound and put a bandage on it, 'Does it hurt?' I asked him.. 'No, it doesn't hurt. You know, when at the construction site, stones keep falling on my feet ...Even that could not stop me from working.' In the middle of the sentence, he stopped. I turned my back on him and tears rolled down my face. In the middle of the sentence, he stopped. I turned my back on him and tears rolled down my face. That year, my brother was 23 years old; I was 26 years old. After I got married, I lived in the city. Many times my h...usband invited my parents to come and live with us, but they didn't want. They said, once they left the village, they wouldn't know what to do. My brother agreed with them. He said, 'Sis, you just take care of your parents-in-law. I will take care of Mom and Dad here.' My husband became the director of his factory. We asked my brother to accept the offer of being the manager in the maintenance department. But my brother rejected the offer. He insisted on working as a repairman instead for a start. One day, my brother was on the top of a ladder repairing a cable, when he got electrocuted, and was sent to the hospital. My husband and I visited him at the hospital. Looking at the plaster cast on his leg, I grumbled, 'Why did you reject the offer of being a manager? Managers won't do something dangerous like that. Now look at you - you are suffering a serious injury. Why didn't you just listen to us?' With a serious expression on his face, he defended his decision, 'Think of brother-in-law. He just became the director, and I being uneducated, and would become a manager, what kind of rumors would fly around?' My husband's eyes filled up with tears, and then I said, 'But you lack in education only because of me!' 'Why do you talk about the past?' he said and then he held my hand. That year, he was 26 years old and I was 29 years old. My brother was 30 years old when he married a farmer girl from the village. During the wedding reception, the master of ceremonies asked him, 'Who is the one person you respect and love the most?' Without even taking a time to think, he answered,' My sister.' He continued by telling a story I could not even remember. 'When I was in primary school, the school was in a different village. Everyday, my sister and I would walk for 2 hours to school and back home. One day, I lost the other pair of my gloves. My sister gave me one of hers. She wore only one glove and she had to walk far. When we got home, her hands were trembling because of the cold weather that she could not even hold her chopsticks. From that day on, I swore that as long as I live, I would take care of my sister and will always be good to her.' Applause filled up the room. All guests turned their attention to me. I found it hard to speak, 'In my whole life, the one I would like to thank most is my brother, 'And in this happy occasion, in front of the crowd, tears were rolling down my face again.

with me?
Nurse: Young man, visiting
hours are over.
The boy leaves and later that
night the girl is taken off of
life support and dies, but
what
the boy didn’t know is that
the girl only asked him those
questions so she could hear
him say it one last time. She
only broke up with him
because she knew she only
had
3 more weeks left to live
and thought that it would
cause
him less pain and give him
time to get over her before
she
died.
NEXT DAY
The boy is found dead with a
gun in one hand and a note
in
the other.
THE NOTE SAID:
“I told her that I would take
a
bullet for her, just like she
said she would die for me.”

hOW TO EXPLAIN GOD|MOTIVATIONAL STORy

THIS ONE IS FABULOUS:
WRITTEN BY AN 8 YEAR OLD

How to Explain God was
written by Danny Dutton,
age
8, from Chula Vista,
California, for his third grade
homework assignment
"Explain God".
"One of God's main jobs is
making people. He makes
them to replace the ones
that die so there will be
enough people to take care
of things on earth. He
doesn't make grown-ups,
just babies. I think because
they are smaller and easier
to make. That way He
doesn't have to take up His
valuable time teaching them
to talk and walk. He can just
leave that to mothers and
fathers.
"God's second most
important job is listening to
prayers. An awful lot of this
goes on, since some people,
like preachers and things,
pray at times besides
bedtime. God doesn't have
time to listen to the radio or
TV because of this. Because
He hears everything, there
must be a terrible lot of
noise in His ears, unless He
has thought of a way to
turn it off. "God sees
everything and hears
everything and is
everywhere which keeps Him
pretty busy. So you
shouldn't go wasting His
time by going over your
mom and dad's head asking
for something they said you
couldn't have.
"Atheists are people who
don't believe in God. I don't
think there are any in Chula
Vista. At least there aren't
any who come to our
church.
"Jesus is God's Son. He used
to do all the hard work like
walking on water and
performing miracles and
trying to teach the people
who didn't want to learn
about God. They finally got
tired of Him preaching to
them and they crucified Him.
But He was good and kind,
like His Father and He told
His Father that they didn't
know what they were doing
and to forgive them and God
said O.K.
"His Dad (God) appreciated
everything that He had done
and all His hard work on
earth so He told Him He
didn't have to go out on the
road anymore. He could stay
in heaven. So He did. And
now He helps His Dad out by
listening to prayers and
seeing things which are
important for God to take
care of and which ones He
can take care of Himself
without having to bother
God. Like a secretary, only
more important.
"You can pray anytime you
want and they are sure to
help you because they got it
worked out so one of them
is on duty all the time.
"You should always go to
Church on Sunday because it
makes God happy, and if
there's anybody you want to
make happy, it's God. Don't
skip church to do something
you think will be more fun
like going to the beach. This
is wrong. And besides the
sun doesn't come out at the
beach until noon anyway.
"If you don't believe in God,
besides being an atheist, you
will be very lonely, because
your parents can't go
everywhere with you, like to
camp, but God can. It is good
to know He's around you
when you're scared in the
dark or when you can't swim
and you get thrown into real
deep water by big kids.
"But you shouldn't just
always think of what God
can do for you. I figure God
put me here and He can take
me back anytime He pleases.
And that's why I believe in
God.

text books to the pupils
arised,
the head teacher
asked every class teacher to
organise their pupils in a
single line. Mrs Ayen ensured
she made Sola to stand
as the last person in her class
as
she said to herself
"who knows if the gift might
not
be enough, so it
won't get to her turn." When
Miss
Jacob the missionary entered

class,
she moved to the front but
found
out the pupils were
so close to the blackboard, in
order not to stain
herself she seek for a space
to
stand and discovered
there were more space for
her to
stand at the back,
after arranging materials to
be
shared she said; class, about
turn',
at this point
Sola
automatically
became the first pupil on the
line
and the first to
receive from that class.

No man
will frustrate you from what
God
prepares

you. Any plan of the enemies
to
deny your blessing
will never
stand.

sTORY OF THE WOOD CUTTER'S AXe

Once upon a time a very
strong woodcutter asked for
a job with a timber merchant,
and he got it.
The salary was really good
and so were the work
conditions. For that reason,
the woodcutter was
determined to do his best.
His boss gave him an axe and
showed him the area where
he was supposed to work.
The first day, the woodcutter
brought 18 trees
"Congratulation !," the boss
said. "Go on that way!"
Very motivated by the boss'
words, the woodcutter tried
harder the next day, but
could bring 15 trees only.
The third day he tried even
harder, but could bring 10
trees only. Day after day he
was bringing less and less
trees.
"I must be losing my
strength", the woodcutter
thought.
He went to the boss and
apologized, saying that he
could not understand what
was going on.
"When was the last time you
sharpened your axe?" the
boss asked.
"Sharpen? I had no time to
sharpen my axe. I have been
very busy trying to cut
trees..."
MORAL LESSON:
"Working hard is not enough;
one has to keep on
sharpening one's skills."

tHE ORPHAN BOY WHO WISHED TO FLY| MORAL STORy

Read this story carefully, there's a moral for you to learn from it

Once upon a time there was a
little boy who was raised in a
orphanage.
The little boy had always
wished that he could fly like a
bird. It was very difficult for
him to understand why he
could not fly. There were
birds at the zoo that were
much bigger than he, and
they could fly.
"Why can't I?" he thought.
"Is there something wrong
with me?" he wondered.
There was another little boy
who was crippled. He had
always wished that he could
walk and run like other little
boys and girls.
"Why can't I be like them?"
he thought.
One day the little orphan boy
who had wanted to fly like a
bird ran away from the
orphanage. He came upon a
park where he saw the little
boy who could not walk or
run playing in the sandbox.
He ran over to the little boy
and asked him if he had ever
wanted to fly like a bird.
"No," said the little boy who
could not walk or run. "But I
have wondered what it
would be like to walk and run
like other boys and girls."
"That is very sad." said the
little boy who wanted to fly.
"Do you think we could be
friends?"
he said to the little boy in the
sandbox.
"Sure." said the little boy.
The two little boys played for
hours. They made sand
castles and made really funny
sounds with their mouths.
Sounds which made them
laugh real hard. Then the
little boy's father came with a
wheelchair to pick up his son.
The little boy who had always
wanted to fly ran over to the
boy's father and whispered
something into his ear.
"That would be OK," said the
man.
The little boy who had always
wanted to fly like a bird ran
over to his new friend and
said, "You are my only friend
and I wish that there was
something that I could do to
make you walk and run like
other little boys and girls. But
I can't. But there is
something that I can do for
you."
The little orphan boy turned
around and told his new
friend to slide up onto his
back. He then began to run
across the grass. Faster and
faster he ran, carrying the
little crippled boy on his back.
Faster and harder he ran
across the park. Harder and
harder he made his legs
travel.
Soon the wind just whistled
across the two little boys'
faces.
The little boy's father began
to cry as he watched his
beautiful little crippled son
flapping his arms up and
down in the wind, all the
while yelling at the top of his
voice,
"I'M FLYING, DADDY. I'M
FLYING!"
Father cried more louder.
Ooops!

That's where the story ends.

Irrespective of your position, you are better off some people. Always help the needy.

eIGHT LIES MOTHER TOLD Me|a TOUCHING STORy

8 lies from Mother ------ Must
read
......... ......... ......... ......... ...............
...
EIGHT LIES OF A MOTHER
This story begins when I was
a
child: I was born poor. Often
we
hadn't enough to eat.
Whenever
we had some food, Mother
often
gave me her portion of rice.
While she was transferring
her
rice into my bowl, she would
say
"Eat this rice, son! I'm not
hungry."
This was Mother's First Lie.
As I grew, Mother gave up
her
spare time to fish in a river
near
our house; she hoped that
from
the fish she caught, she could
give me a little bit more
nutritious food for my
growth.
Once she had caught just two
fish, she would make fish
soup.
While I was eating the soup,
mother would sit beside me
and
eat the what was still left on
the
bone of the fish I had eaten,
My
heart was touched when I
saw it.
Once I gave the other fish to
her
on my chopstick but she
immediately refused it and
said,
"Eat this fish, son! I don't
really
like fish."
This was Mother's Second Lie.
Then, in order to fund my
education, Mother went to a
Match Factory to bring home
some used matchboxes,
which
she filled with fresh
matchsticks.
This helped her get some
money
to cover our needs. One
wintry
night I awoke to find Mother
filling the matchboxes by
candle light. So I
said,"Mother, go
to sleep; it's late: you can
continue working tomorrow
morning." Mother smiled and
said "Go to sleep, son! I'm not
tired."
This was Mother's Third Lie.
When I had to sit my Final
Examination, Mother
accompanied me. After dawn,
Mother waited for me for
hours
in the heat of the sun. When
the
bell rang, I ran to meet her..
Mother embraced me and
poured me a glass of tea that
she
had prepared in a thermos.
The
tea was not as strong as my
Mother's love, Seeing Mother
covered with perspiration, I
at
once gave her my glass and
asked her to drink too.
Mother
said "Drink, son! I'm not
thirsty!".
This was Mother's Fourth Lie.
After Father's death, Mother
had
to play the role of a single
parent.
She held on to her former
job;
she had to fund our needs
alone.
Our family's life was more
complicated. We suffered
from
starvation. Seeing our
family's
condition worsening, my kind
Uncle who lived near my
house
came to help us solve our
problems big and small. Our
other neighbours saw that
we
were poverty stricken so
they
often advised my mother to
marry again. But Mother
refused
to remarry saying "I don't
need
love."
This was Mother's Fifth Lie.
After I had finished my
studies
and gotten a job, it was time
for
my old Mother to retire but
she
carried on going to the
market
every morning just to sell a
few
vegetables. I kept sending
her
money but she was stead
fast
and even sent the money
back to
me. She said, "I have enough
money."
That was Mother's Sixth Lie.
I continued my part-time
studies
for my Master's Degree.
Funded
by the American Corporation
for
which I worked, I succeeded
in
my studies. With a big jump in
my salary, I decided to bring

A SAD TOUCHING STORY

SAD STORY
This teenager lived alone with
his father, and the two of
them had a very special
relationship.
Even though the son was
always on the bench, his
father was always in the
stands cheering. He never
missed a game.
This young man was still the
smallest of the class when he
entered high school.
But his father continued to
encourage him but also made
it very clear that he did not
have to play football if he
didn't want to.
But the young man loved
football and decided to hang
in there.
He was determined to try his
best at every practice, and
perhaps he'd get to play
when he became a senior.
All through high school he
never missed a practice nor a
game, but remained a bench
warmer all four years.
His faithful father was always
in the stands, always with
words of encouragement for
him.
When the young man went to
college, he decided to try out
for the football team as
a"walk-on." Everyone was
sure he could never make the
cut, but he did. The coach
admitted that he kept him on
the roste because he always
puts his heart and soul into
every practice, and at the
same time, provided the
other members with the
spirit and hustle they badly
needed.
The news that he had
survived the cut thrilled him
so much that he rushed to
the nearest phone and called
his father.
His father shared his
excitement and was sent
season tickets for all the
college games.
This persistent young athlete
never missed practice during
his four years at college, but
he never got to play in the
game.
It was the end of his senior
football season, and as he
trotted onto the practice
field shortly before the big
play off game, the coach met
him with a telegram. The
young man read the telegram
and he became deathly silent.
Swallowing hard, he mumbled
to the coach, "My father died
this morning. Is it all right if I
miss practice today?"
The coach put his arm gently
around his shoulder and said,
"Take the rest of the week
off, son. And don't even plan
to come back to the game on
Saturday."
Saturday arrived, and the
game was not going well. In
the third quarter, when the
team was ten points behind,
a silent young man quietly
slipped into the empty locker
room and put on his football
gear.
As he ran onto the sidelines,
the coach and his players
were astounded to see their
faithful team mate back so
soon.
"Coach, please let me play.
I've just got to play today,"
said the young man.
The coach pretended not to
hear him. There was no way
he wanted his worst player in
this close play off game. But
the young man persisted, and
finally feeling sorry for the
kid, the coach gave in.
"All right," he said. "You can
go in."
Before long, the coach, the
players and everyone in the
stands could not believe their
eyes. This little unknown,
who had never played before
was doing everything right.
The opposing team could not
stop him. He ran, he passed,
blocked and tackled like a
star. His team began to
triumph.
The score was soon tied. In
the closing seconds of the
game, this kid intercepted a
pass and ran all the way for
the winning touch down.
The fans broke loose. His
team mates hoisted him onto
their shoulders. Such
cheering you've never heard!
Finally, after the stands had
emptied and the team had
showered and left the locker
room,
the coach noticed that the
young man was sitting
quietly in the corner all alone.
The coach came to him and
said, "Kid, I can't believe it.
You were fantastic! Tell me
what got into you?
How did you do it?"
He looked at the coach, with
tears in his eyes, and said,
"Well, you knew my dad died,
but did you know that my
dad was blind?"
The young man swallowed
hard and forced a smile, "Dad
came to all my games, but
today was the first time he
could see me play, and I
wanted to show him 'I COULD
DO IT'!"
MORAL LESSON:
God has good plans for you,
but barriers in life changes
everything.
Accept God today and you
could to it.
LiKE and SHARE
if it has touched you
and
write, "I COULD DO IT" to
claim this story.

sILENTLY IN LOVE|SYMPATHETIC STORy

Silent Love_________________
read it
10th grade:
=======
As I sat there in English class,
I stared at the girl next to
me. She was my so called
“best friend”. I stared at
her long, silky hair, and
wished
she was mine. But she
didn’t notice me like that,
and I knew it.
After class, she walked up to
me and asked me for the
notes she had missed the day
before and handed them to
her. She said “thanks” and
shake hand with me. I
wanted to tell her, I want her
to know that I don’t want
to be just friends, I love her
but I’m just too shy, and I
don’t know why.
11th grade
=======
The phone rang. On the other
end, it was her. She was in
tears, mumbling on and on
about how her love had
broke her heart. She asked
me to come over because she
didn’t want to be alone, so
I did. As I sat next to her on
the sofa, I stared at her soft
eyes, wishing she was mine.
After 2 hours, one Drew
Barrymore movie, and three
bags of chips, she decided to
go to sleep.
She looked at me, said
“thanks” and gave me
sweet smile. I want to tell
her, I want her to know that
I don’t want to be just
friends, I love her but I’m
just too shy, and I don’t
know why.
Senior year
========
The day before prom she
walked to my locker. “My
date is sick” she said; he’s
not going to go well, I
didn’t have a date, and in
7th grade, we made a
promise that if neither of us
had dates, we would go
together just as “best
friends”. So we did.
Prom night, after everything
was over, I was standing at
her front door step! I stared
at her as she smiled at me
and stared at me with her
crystal eyes. I want her to be
mine, but she isn’t think of
me like that, and I know it.
Then she said “I had the
best time, thanks!” and
gave me a sweet smile. I
want to tell her, I want her
to know that I don’t want
to be just friends, I love her
but I’m just too shy, and I
don’t know why.
Graduation Day
==========
A day passed, then a week,
then a month. Before I could
blink, it was graduation day. I
watched as her perfect body
floated like an angel up on
stage to get her diploma. I
wanted her to be mine, but
she didn’t notice me like
that, and I knew it.
Before everyone went home,
she came to me in her smock
and hat, and cried as I
hugged her. Then she lifted
her head from my shoulder
and said, “You’re my best
friend, thanks”. I want to
tell her, I want her to know
that I don’t want to be just
friends, I love her but I’m
just too shy, and I don’t
know why.
A Few Years Later
==============
Now I sit in the pews of the
church. That girl is getting
married now. I watched her
say “I do” and drive off to
her new life, married to
another man. I wanted her to
be mine, but she didn`t see
me like that, and I knew it.
But before she drove away,
she came to me and said
“you came!”. She said
“thanks” and kissed me on
the cheek. I want to tell her, I
want her to know that I
don’t want to be just
friends, I love her but I’m
just too shy, and I don’t
know why.
Funeral
======
Years passed, I looked down
at the coffin of a girl who
used to be my “best
friend”. At the service, they
read a diary entry she had
wrote in her high school
years.
This is what it read:
I stare at him wishing he was
mine, but he doesn’t notice
me like that, and I know it. I
want to tell him, I want him
to know that I don’t want
to be just friends, I love him
but I’m just too shy, and I
don’t know why. I wish he
would tell me he loved me!
I wish I did too… I thought to
my self, and I cried. :'(
Thumbs up if its touched
your heart...:'(

a HEART TOUCHING STORy

When I heard of this story, I
almost cried.
I have decided to share it
with you today.
Share with others too.
TRUE STORY HAPPENED IN
INDIA.
;-(
I was walking around in a Big
Bazar store making shopping,
when I saw a Cashier talking
to a boy couldn't have been
more than 5 or 6 years old..
The Cashier said, "I'm sorry,
but you don't have enough
money to buy this doll."
Then the little boy turned to
me and asked: ''Uncle, are
you sure I don't have enough
money?''
I counted his cash and
replied: ''You know that you
don't have enough money to
buy the doll, my dear.''
The little boy was still holding
the doll in his hand.
Finally, I walked toward him
and I asked him who he
wished to give this doll to.
"It's the doll that my sister
loved most and wanted so
much . I wanted to Gift her
for her BIRTHDAY.
I have to give the doll to my
mommy so that she can give
it to my sister when she goes
there."
His eyes were so sad while
saying this. My Sister has
gone to be with God..
Daddy says that
Mommy is going to see God
very soon too, so I thought
that she could take the doll
with her to give it to my
sister...''
My heart nearly stopped. The
little boy looked up at me and
said: "I told daddy to tell
mommy not to go yet.
I need her to wait until I
come back from the mall."
Then he showed me a very
nice photo of him where he
was laughing. He then told
me,
"I want mommy to take my
picture with her so my sister
won't forget me."
"I love my mommy and I wish
she doesn't have to leave me,
but daddy says that she has
to go to be with my little
sister."
Then he looked again at the
doll with sad eyes, very
quietly..
I quickly reached for my
wallet and said to the boy,
"Suppose we check again,
just in case you do have
enough money for the doll?''
'OK' he said, 'I hope I do have
enough.' I added some of my
money to his with out him
seeing and we started to
count it. There was enough
for the doll and even some
spare money.
The little boy said:
"Thank you God for giving me
enough money!"
Then he looked at me and
added, "I asked last night
before I went to sleep for
God to make sure I had
enough money to buy this
doll, so that mommy could
give It to my sister.
He heard me!''
"I also wanted to have
enough money to buy a
white rose for my mommy,
but I didn't dare to ask God
for too much. But He gave me
enough to buy the doll
and a white rose.
My mommy loves white
roses."
I finished my shopping in a
totally different state from
when I started. I couldn't get
the little boy out of my mind.
Then I remembered a local
news paper article two days
ago, which mentioned a
drunk man in a truck, who hit
a car occupied by a young
woman and a little girl. The
little girl died right away, and
the mother was left in a
critical
state.
The family had to decide
whether to pull the plug on
the life-sustaining machine,
because the young woman
would not be able to recover
from the coma. Was this the
family of the little boy?
Two days after this
encounter with the little boy,
I read in the news paper that
the young woman had
passed away.. I couldn't stop
myself as I bought a bunch
of white roses
I went to the funeral home
where the body of the young
woman was exposed for
people to see and make
last wishes before her burial.
She was there, in her coffin,
holding a beautiful white
rose in her hand with the
photo of the little boy and
the doll placed over her
chest.
I left the place, teary-eyed,
feeling that my life had been
changed for ever...
The love that the little boy
had for his mother and his
sister is still, to this day, hard
to imagine. And in a fraction
of a second, a drunk driver
had taken all this away from
him.
Please DO NOT DRINK & DRIVE.

SUCCESS|MOTIVATIONAL STORIES

MTN came to Nigeria at a time
when nobody wanted to
invest in Nigeria, at a time
when Nigerians did not have
phones. Even Zenith Bank
refused to lend MTN cash to
operate, UBA rejected MTN’s
offer - but today see the
difference. Millions of
Nigerians, and Africans have
cell phones and many use
MTN! And, we all know the
story of the only civilian
unelected President in Nigeria
- Goodluck Jonathan.
We know how people said he
was not going to be
President, they even made
him acting President. Today
the rest is history!
What about Cowbell? When
they came to Nigeria, they
made milk in a sachet. Peak
laughed at them - they said
Cowbell was milk for the poor
and they were right! 3 million
poor people could afford N10
a day for a sachet of milk.
Do the math - 3 million people
buying milk at N10.00- that
was N30million every single
day. In a month they grossed
N900million (almost N1billion).
Even Peak have had to make
sachet milk in order to
survive in the market.
So what have people told
you? What have they said
you cannot do, that you are
not qualified to do, or for
that matter do not have the
experience to do? They told
Cowbell, they told Goodluck,
they told MTN, but today the
story has changed.
Success is not about where
you graduated from, but
what graduates from you!
Keep the spirit!

LETTER OF DIVORCE|a motivational story

CHECK OUT DIS DIVORCE LETTER
Dear Husband,
I'm writing you this letter to tell
you that I'm leaving you for
good.I've been a good woman to
you for seven years and I have
nothing to show for it. These last
two weeks have been hell. Your
boss called to tell me that you
had quit your job today and that
was the last straw. Last week,
you came home and didn't notice
that I had gotte...n my hair and
nails done, cooked your favorite
meal and even wore a brand new
negligee. You came home and ate
in two minutes, and went
straight to sleep after watching
the game. You don't tell me you
love me any more, you don't
touch me or anything. Either
you're cheating or you don't love
me anymore, whatever the case
is,I'm gone.PLS.If you're trying to
find me, don't. Your BROTHER
and I are moving away to West
Virginia together! Have a great
life! > Your EX-
Wife*******************************************
**********************************************
**
Dear Ex-Wife Nothing has made
my day more than receiving your
letter. It's truethat you and I
have been married for seven
years, although a good woman is
a far cry from what you've been.
I watch sports so much to try to
drown out your constant
nagging. Too bad that doesn't
work. I did notice when you cut
off all of your hair last week, the
first thing that came to mind
was"You look just like a man!"
My mother raised me to notsay
anything if you can't say
anything nice. When you cooked
my favorite meal, you must have
gotten me confused with MY
BROTHER, because I stopped
eating pork seven years ago. I
went to sleep on you when you
had on that new negligee
because the price tag was still on
it. I prayed that it was a
coincidence that my brother had
just borrowed fifty dollars from
me that morning and your
negligee was $49.99. After all of
this, I still loved you and felt that
we could work it out.So when I
discovered that I had hit the
lotto for ten million dollars, I quit
my job and bought us two
tickets to Jamaica. But when I
got home you were gone.
Everything happens for a reason I
guess. I hope you have the
fulfilling life you always wanted.
My lawyer said with your letter
that you wrote, you won't get a
dime from me. So take care.
Signed..Rich As Heaven and
Free!....hmmmm? ===========

WHO SAID THAT YOU ARE UGLY?

A girl thought she was not
physically beautiful and that she
could never be loved by any man
unless she compromised her
body. In her search for love, she
allowed herself to be misused
and abused sexually by any man
that showed interest in her. She
did almost anything to be loved
and accepted. She wanted
someone to hold her and tell her
that she was special. She wanted
a committed guy who would
love her and someone to talk to
and share her life with. But she
experienced disappointment,
frustration, and sorrow.
Eventually she hated herself
bitterly. The number one reason
young ladies get involved in sex
is their desire for love and
acceptance.
Don’t always have an
inferiority complex about your
looks. You have assets that
outweigh any physical
deficiencies. Others may envy
what you dislike about yourself.
One of the greatest mistakes you
can make in life is to hate the
way you are created. This is the
reason for most young people
frustration. You see, nobody is as
beautiful or handsome as you
are. You are wonderfully and
beautifully made. Don’t permit
your look, family background,
financial difficulties, inadequate
formal education, race, sex, age,
or other people’s opinion
about you to limit you and
determine how your life turns
out to be. Nobody is better than
you. So stop feeling inferior
about yourself. Nobody can make
you feel inferior without your
consent. You are not a nonentity.
You are somebody because God
never waste his precious time to
create a nobody. You are a
priceless human being.
The truth about love is that you
can’t give what you don’t
have. Before you can love others,
you must first love yourself
(matt 22:39, matt 19:19) by the
same token, you must first love
yourself before others will like
you. A person who does not love
himself/herself will find it
impossible to develop genuine
love relationship with others.
Unless you feel good about
yourself, you won’t have the
confidence to be yourself. You
train others to treat you by how
you treat yourself.
YOU ARE THE MOST BEAUTIFUL
PERSON ON EARTH!!!

WHICH IS THE MIGHTIEST ANIMAL IN THE JUNGLE?|MORAL TALE

A lion woke up one morning
feeling rowdy. He went out and
cornered a small monkey and
roared, "Who is mightiest of all
jungle animals?"
The trembling monkey said,
"You are, mighty lion!"
Later, the lion confronted a deer
and bellowed, "Who is mightiest
of all jungle animals?"
The terrified deer stammered,
"Oh great lion, you are by far
the mightiest animal in the
jungle!"
On a roll, the lion swaggered up
to an elephant and roared, "Who
is mightiest of all jungle
animals?"
The elephant snatched up the
lion with his trunk, slammed
him against a tree, stomped on
him and then ambled away.
The battered lion hollered after
the elephant, "Sheesh, just
because you don't know the
answer, you don't have to get
so upset."

A TOUCHING STORY|THE FAITHFUL DOG AND THE NURSING MOTHER

A dog was so faithful that the
woman could leave her baby
with it and go out to attend
other matters. She always
returned to find the child
soundly asleep with the dog
faithfully watching over him. One
day something tragic happened.
The woman as usual, left the
baby in the "hands" of this
faithful dog and went out
shopping. When she returned,
she discovered rather a nasty
scene, there was a total mess.
The baby's cot was dismantled,
his nappies & clothes torn to
shreds with blood stains all over
the bedroom where she left the
child & the dog. Shocked, the
woman wailed as she began
looking for the baby.
All of a sudden, she saw the
faithful dog emerging from
under the bed. It was covered
with blood and licking it's mouth
as if it had just finished a
delicious meal. The woman got
angry and assumed that the dog
had devoured her baby. Without
much thought she beat the dog
with a wood to death. But as she
continued searching for
the"remains" of her child, she
beheld another scene. Close to
the bed was the baby who,
although lying bare floor, was
safe & under the bed where the
body of a snake was torn to
pieces in what had been a fierce
battle between the snake and the
dog which was now dead.
Then reality dawned on d woman
who now began to understand
what took place in her absence.
The dog fought to protect the
baby from the ravenous snake. It
was too late for her now to make
amends because in her
impatience and anger,she had
killed the faithful dog. How often
have we misjudged people and
torn them to shreds with harsh
words and deeds before we have
had time to evaluate the
situation?.


This is called SIN OF
PRESUMPTION Presuming things
our way without taking the
trouble to find out exactly what
the situation really is. Little
patience can drastically reduce
major life long mistakes. Who
Are You misjudging right now?.
Don't think what you think
others are thinking, Take time to
get the whole truth.

PEACE OF MIND | MOTIVATIONAL STORY

A Buddhist was going from town to town with some of his followers. They happened to pass by a lake and they decided to stop a little close to it to rest.

After resting for a while, the Buddhist told one of his followers, 'I'm dying of thirst, please move down to the lake and get me some water to drink'

The follower immediately obeyed and went down to get his master a drink of water. When he got there, he met a group of natives washing clothes in the water. While still there, a bullock cart crossed through the lake and the water became so turbid and dirty. He couldn't get clean water for his master to drink. He felt it was inappropriate to give the dirty water to his master and so, he went back to explain things to him.

Getting to his master, he told him, ''I met some people washing by the lake, the water is very muddy and it is not fit to be drunk''

After an hour or there about, the Buddhist sent the disciple to the lake again to get him water to drink. Not uttering a word of complain, the follower obeyed and went down to get the water for his Buddhist master.
This time around, he discovered that the water was no longer muddy and dirty as it was before, it had settled and was clean, hence, fit for drinking. He took some water in the jar he took with him and went back to his master.

The Buddha took the water, looked at the disciple in the face and said, "See what you did to make the water clean, you let it be... and the mud settled down on its own - And you got clear and clean water. Your mind is also like that. When it is disturbed, just let0it be. Give it a little time, it will settle down on its own. You don't need to put in any effort to calm it down, it will happen. It's effortless"

Yeah, that's the mESSAGE OF THE STORy
It doesn't require any effort to have peace of mind. It is not a strenuous job. It is an effortless process. When there is peace inside you. That peace permeates to the outside. It spreads around you such that people around you start feeling that peace and grace.
