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? ===========

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.

This kind of behaviour is not expected from a 30 years old individual, infact, it is strange, everyone in the train got irritated by his childish acts and almost everybody began muttering something to himself or herself... Jane particularly, remarked loudly, "This guy is a crack, a disgrace and not sociable" The old man heard this but held his peace.

Not so long, it started to rain outside. The 30 year old son filled with joy, exclaimed "oh! The rain is beautiful!" Jane, most irritated of all, with rain drops splashing over her through the open window remarked harshly again, "Can't you see it's raining? You this foolish old man, if your son is mentally retarded, why not take him to a mental asylum and stop disturbing public peace"
The old man at first hesitated, then replied in a low tone, "We are on our way back from the hospital, my son has been blind from birth, he got discharged this morning, he just got his vision last week, and so, all these works of nature are new to his eyes, please forgive us for any inconvenience we might have caused you "

wHEN THE WORST HAPPENs

The only survivor of a shipwreck was washed up on a small, uninhabited island. He prayed feverishly for God to rescue him, and every day he scanned the horizon for help, but none seemed forthcoming. Exhausted, he eventually managed to build a little hut out of driftwood to protect him from the elements and to store his few possessions. But then one day, after scavenging for food, he arrived home to find his little hut in flames, the smoke rolling up to the sky. The worst had happened; everything was lost. He was stunned with grief and anger. "God, how could you do this to me!", he cried. Early the next day, however, he was awakened by the sound of a ship that was approaching the island. It had come to rescue him. "How did you know I was here?", asked the weary man of his rescuers. "We saw your smoke signal," they replied.

THE WOODEN BOWL

A frail old man went to live
with his son, daughter-in-law,
and a four-year grandson. The
old man's hands trembled, his
eyesight was blurred, and his
step faltered.
While the family ate
together at the table, the
elderly grandfather's shaky
hands and failing sight made
eating difficult. Rice rolled
off his spoon onto the floor.
When he grasped the glass,
milk spilled on the tablecloth.
The son and daughter-in-law
became irritated with the
mess. "We must do something
about Grandfather," said the
son. "I've had enough of his
spilled milk, noisy eating and
food on the floor." So the
husband and wife set a small
table in the corner. There,
Grandfather ate alone while
the rest of the family enjoyed
dinner and since Grandfather had
broken a dish or two, his food
was served in a wooden bowl.
When the family glanced in
Grandfather's direction,
sometimes he had a tear in his
eye as he sat alone. Still, the
only words the couple had for
him were sharp admonitions
wheneva he dropped a fork or
spilled food.
The four-year-old watched it
all in silence. One evening
before supper, the father
noticed his son playing with
wood scraps on the floor. He
asked the child sweetly,
"What are you making?" Just
as sweetly, the boy
responded, "Oh I am making a
little bowl for you and Mama
to eat your food from when I
grow up." The four-year-old
smiled and went back to
work.
The words so struck the
parents that they were
speechless. Then tears
started to stream down their
cheeks. Though no word was
spoken, both knew what must
be done. That evening the
husband took Grandfather's
hand and gently led him back
to the family table. For the
remainder of his days he ate
every meal with the family.
And for some reason, neither
husband nor wife seemed to
care any longer when a fork
was dropped, milk spilled, or
the tablecloth soiled.
Note: Children are remarkably
perceptive. Their eyes ever
observe, their ears ever listen,
and their minds ever process
the messages they absorb. If
they see us patiently provide
a happy home atmosphere for
family members, they will
imitate that attitude for the
rest of their lives. The wise
parent realizes that every day
the building blocks are being
laid for the child's future.
Let's be wise builders and
role models.
Say this prayer with me.....
Lord, we ask not that you
move the mountains, but that
You give us the strength to
climb.......
"Life is about people
connecting with people, and
making a positive difference"
Take care of yourself, and
those you love....today, and
everyday!"

cYCLE OF EVIl [a moral story]

There was once a
king who was so
cruel and unjust
that his subjects
yearned for his
death or
dethronement.
However, one day
he surprised them
all by announcing that he had
decided to turn over a new leaf.
“No more cruelty, no more
injustice,” he promised, and he
was as good as his word. He
became known as the ‘Gentle
Monarch’.
Months after his transformation
one of his ministers plucked up
enough courage to ask him
what had brought about his
change of heart, and the king
answered:
“As I was galloping through
my forests I caught sight of a
fox being chased by a hound.
The fox escaped into his hole
but not before the hound had
bitten into its leg and lamed it
for life. Later I rode into a village
and saw the same hound there.
It was barking at a man. Even as
I watched, the man picked up a
huge stone and flung it at the
dog, breaking its leg. The man
had not gone far when he was
kicked by a horse. His knee was
shattered and he fell to the
ground, disabled for life. The
horse began to run but it fell
into a hole and broke its leg.
Reflecting on all that had
happened, I thought: ‘Evil
begets evil. If I continue in my
evil ways, I will surely be
overtaken by evil’. So I
decided to change”.
The minister went away
convinced that the time was
ripe to overthrow the king and
seize the throne. Immersed in
thought, he did not see the
steps in front of him and fell,
breaking his neck.

oNE HUNDRED DOLLARs [a motivational story]

One night, a man came home from work
late, tired and irritated only to find
his 5-year old son waiting for
him at the door.
After a brief welcome, a short conversation came up...

SON: "Daddy, may I ask you a
question?"
DAD: "sure, what is it?"
SON: "Daddy, how much, precisely do you
make in an hour?"
DAD: "That's none of your
business. Why do you ask such a
thing?"
SON: "I just want to know.
Please daddy, just tell me, how much
you make an hour?"
DAD: "If you must know, I make
$100 an hour. Are you now okay?"
SON: "Oh! (With his head facing down).
"Daddy, may I please
borrow $50?"
The father was furious.
DAD: "If the only reason you
asked that is so you can borrow
some money to buy a silly toy or
some other nonsense, then you
march yourself straight into your
room and go to bed. Think
about why you are being so
selfish. I work hard everyday and all you can come up with is this your stupid
childish behavior of yours."

The little boy quietly went to his
room and shut the door behind him.
The man sat down and started
to get even angrier about the
little boy's questions. How dare
he ask such questions only to
get some money?
After about an hour or thereabout, the
man had calmed down, and
started to think: Maybe there
was something he really needed
to buy with that $ 50 and he
really doesn't ask for money very
often. The man went to the
door of the little boy's room and
opened the door.

DAD: "Are you asleep, son?"
SON: "No daddy, I'm awake".
DAD: "I've been thinking, maybe
I was too hard on you earlier.
It's been a long day and I took
out my aggravation on you.
Here's the $50 you asked for."
The little boy sat straight up,
smiling.
SON: "Oh, thank you daddy!"
Then, reaching under his pillow
he pulled out some crumpled up
bills. The man saw that the boy
already had money, started to
get angry again. The little boy
slowly counted out his money,
and then looked up at his father.
DAD: "Why do you want more
money if you already have
some?"
SON: "Because I didn't have
enough, but now I do.
"Daddy, I have $100 now. Can I
buy an hour of your time?
Please come home early
tomorrow. I would like to have
dinner with you."

The father was crushed. He put
his arms around his little son,
and he begged for his
forgiveness.

mESSAGE OF THE STORy
It's just a short reminder to all
of you working so hard in life.
We should not let time slip
through our fingers without
having spent some time with
those who really matter to us,
those close to our hearts.
Do remember to share that
$100 worth of your time with
someone you love?
If we die tomorrow,
the company that we are
working for
could easily replace us in a
matter of days.
But the family and friends we
leave behind
will feel the loss for the rest of
their lives.
And come to think of it,
we pour ourselves more into
work than to our family.

oNE EYED MUMMy [a moral story]

Jimmy's mom had just only one eye. He
hated her so much, the hatred was with a passion!... She was such an
embarrassment. In order to earn a living, She cooked for
students and teachers, with the money she got, she
supported the family, as her husband, Jimmy's mother had died a long time ago.
One very day, during
elementary school where Jimmy's
mom came to say hello to him. He
was so embarrassed.
"How could she do this to me?" he said in annoyance. He
ignored his mother, gave her a hateful
look and ran out. The next day
at school one of his classmates
said, 'Jimmy, your mom only has
one eye!'
Jimmy felt like he should bury himself. He just wanted his
mom to disappear
. Jimmy confronted her that
day and said to her, ' If you're only
going to make me a laughing
stock, why don't you just die?'
The poor woman didn't respond... Jimmy
didn't even stop to think for a
second about what he had said,
because he was full of anger. He
was oblivious to her feelings.
All Jimmy could think of was getting out of the house, and
having nothing to do with his mom. So
he studied very hard, got a chance
to go abroad to study.
Then, he got married. Jimmy bought a
house of his own and had his own kids
. He was now happy and satisfied with his
life, his kids and the comforts from his wife.
Then one day, his mother came
to visit him. She hadn't seen him
in years and she didn't even
meet her grandchildren.
When she stood by the door, Jimmy's
children laughed at her, and immediately, Jimmy
yelled at her for coming over
uninvited and without giving any notification for coming. He screamed at her, at the top of his lungs
'How dare you come to my
house and scare my children!'
GET OUT OF HERE! NOW!!!'
And to this, the poor mother quietly
answered, 'Oh, I'm so sorry. I
may have gotten the wrong
address,' and she went out
of sight.
One day, a letter regarding a
school reunion came to Jimmy's
house. So he lied to my wife that he
was going on a business trip.
After the reunion, he went to the
old shack just out of curiosity.
His neighbors told him that his mother had died.
Jimmy did not even shed a single tear. They
handed him a letter that she had
wanted him to have. Here the content of the letter goes...



'My dearest son,
I think of you all the the time. I'm
sorry that I came to your house
and scared your children.
I was so glad when I heard you
were coming for the reunion.
But I may not be able to even
get out of bed to see you. I'm
sorry that I was a constant
embarrassment to you when
you were growing up.
You see........when you were very
little, you got into an accident,
and lost your eye. As a mother, I
couldn't stand watching you
having to grow up with one eye.
So I gave you mine.
I was so proud of my son who
was seeing a whole new world
for me, in my place, with that
eye.
With all my love to you,
Your mother.

a TRUE FRIENd [a moral story]

A true friend is a special gift from God and indeed a rare gem. Read this short story and see why I said so.


The soldier's heart was filled with horror
soldier as he saw
his lifelong friend fall in battle.
Caught in a trench with
continuous gunfire whizzing
over his head, the soldier asked
his lieutenant if he might go out
into the "no man's land"
between the trenches to bring
his fallen comrade back.
"You can go," said the
lieutenant, “but i don't think
it's worth it. Your friend is
probably dead and you may
loose your own life too." The
lieutenant's advice didn't
matter, and the soldier went
anyway. Luckily, he
managed to reach his friend,
Placed him onto his shoulder and
bring him back to their
company's trench. As the two
of them tumbled in together to
the bottom of the trench, the
officer checked the wounded
soldier, and then looked kindly
at his friend.
“I told you it wouldn't be
worth it,” he said. “Your
friend is dead and you are
Terribly wounded.”
“It was worth it, though, sir,”
said the soldier.
“What do you mean; worth
it?” responded the Lieutenant.
“Your friend is dead.”
“Yes, Sir” the private
answered. “But it was worth it
because when I got to him, he
was still alive and I had the
satisfaction of hearing him
saying his last words, “Joe…, I knew you'd
come.”

mORAL OF THE STORy
Many times in life, whether a
thing is worth doing or not,
really depends on how you look
at it. Take up all your courage
and do something your heart
tells you to do so that you may
not regret not doing it later in
your life. May each and every
one of you be blessed with the
company of TRUE FRIENDS. A
true friend is one who walks in,
when the rest of the world
walks out. War doesn't
determine who is right. War
only determines who is left. A friend in time of need is a friend in deed.

a HEART TOUCHING STORy - 2 [a moral story]

A very loving couple have been married for
over 10years without any child and
it was becoming their 11th year.
Steve and Sarah stayed with each
other and greatly hoped that they will
have a child before their 11th
year of marriage runs out
because they were under
persuasion from friends and
family members to get a divorce
but they could'nt let go because
of the strong bond of love between them.
Months passed and one day,
while Dave was returning from
work, he saw his wife walking
down the road with a man. The
man had his arms around her
neck and they looked very happy.
For over a week, he saw the
same man with his wife at
various places and one evening,
while Dave was returning from
work he saw the man drop her
off at the house after giving her
a kiss on the cheek.
Dave was angry and sad.
Two days later, after a hectic day
at work, Dave was taking water
with a glass jug from the
dispenser when the phone rang.
He picked it up and the person
said,"Hello dear, I'll be coming to
your house this evening to see
you as promised. I hope.....".
Dave hung-up the phone. It was
a male voice and he was sure the
person was the man he had
always seen her with.
He suddenly became shaky with
the thought that he has lost his
wife to another man. The glass
jug fell from his hand and
shattered into pieces. Clara came
running into the room asking,"Is
everything okay?".
In anger he gave his wife a push
and she fell.
She wasn't moving or getting up.
Dave then realized that she fell
where he broke the glass jug. A
large piece of glass had pierced
her. He felt her breath, pulse and
heartbeat but there she lay
lifeless.
His wife was dead!
In total confusion, he saw an
envelope in her hand. He took it,
opened it and was shocked by its
content -it was a letter. It reads:
"My loving husband, words
cannot express how I feel so, I
had to write it down. I have been
going to see a doctor for over a
week and I wanted to be sure
before I give you the news. The
doctor confirmed it that I am
pregnant with a twin and our
baby is due 2months from now.
The same doctor is my long lost
brother whom I lost contact with
after our marriage. He has
promised to take care of me and
our baby and give us the best
without collecting a dime.
He also promised to have dinner
with us today.
I am putting this on your favorite
chair in the sitting room for you
to remember the day you
proposed to me and I had to
write to you saying,"Yes"

she was confirmed dead. Her

tHE FARMER'S CORn [a moral story]

Wait! Before you read the story: Ever think that you are in one way connected with your neighbours, even if they're your worst enemies? Do you know that when helping them in any way, you're indirectly rendering yourself help and vice versa? Now you can read the story to know why I said so...


There was once upon a time, a farmer who
grows corn. This farmer was very popular for planting award-winning corn. Each
year he entered his corn in the
state fair where it won a blue
ribbon.
One particular year a T.V reporter
interviewed him and learned
something interesting about
how he grew it. During the course of the interview, the reporter
discovered that the farmer
shared his corn seeds with his
neighbors.

"How can you afford to share
your best seed corn with your
neighbors when they are
always earning you awards in competition. Don't you know that theirs might beat yours in the next competition
?" the
reporter asked.
"Why sir," said the farmer,
"didn't you know? The winds
picks up pollen from the
ripening corn and swirls it from
field to field. If my neighbors
grow inferior corn, cross-
pollination will steadily degrade
the quality of my corn. If I am to
grow good corn, I must help my
neighbors grow good corn."

mESSAGE OF THE STORy
The farmer is very much aware of the
connectedness of life. His corn
cannot improve unless his
neighbor's corn also improves.
So it is with our lives. Those
who choose to live in peace
must help their neighbors to live
in peace. Those who choose to
live well must help others to live
well, for the value of a life is
measured by the lives it
touches.

mORAL OF THE STORy

Always help others around you, if you do, you're helping yourself too.
Remember, what goes around comes around.

tHE LYING PRINCe [a moral tale]

This story is actually one of my favourites, very short though, but yet it's moral is so clear and plain. It is mostly suitable for children...

There was once upon a time, a King whose
son was a dishonest telltale.
This dishonest Prince would threaten to
punish the servants if they ever
let the King know about his behaviour and acts.

One fateful day, the King and his son, the Prince
left the castle together. They
got to a village, at which
they parted and went on separate ways. As usual, the Prince
went back to his normal
behaviour of getting on
everyone's nerves, but the King
returned unannounced and
caught the Prince red-handed,
up to his tricks.
The dishonest Prince took advantage of
the fact that in that village there
was a youth who looked just
exactly like him. He told his father that
it had been the youth who had
done all these bad things.
However, the King, seeing what
a lying snitch this person was,
concluded that the boy in the
village must be his real son, the
Prince.
So the King took the boy back
with him to the palace, and left
the real Prince in the village.
While there, the Prince finally
came to regret his previous life
filled with lies and accusations.
The other young man heard of
this, and decided to forgive the
Prince. He confessed to the King
that he wasn't his real son after
all. The King left the castle and
brought his son home, and the
two young men ended up as
inseparable friends.

oUTSIDE THE WINDOw [a moral and motivational story]

Before you read this story: Are you in a situation or condition and you feel others you're equal with are more privileged or opportuned than you? How do you react to this situation? Do you get envious? Jealous or...? Well, read this story to see why envy or jealousy is not the right answer in such situation....

Once upon a time...
Two men who were seriously ill,
occupied the same
room in a hospital. One man was allowed to
sit up in his bed for an hour a
day to drain the fluids from his
lungs. His bed was next to the
room's only window. The other
man had to spend all his time
lying flat on his back.
The men talked for hours on
end. They spoke of their lives,
families, their homes,
jobs, their involvement in the
military service, where they had
been on vacation and many other things. And every
afternoon when the man in the
bed next to the window could
sit up, he would pass the time
by describing to his roommate
all the things he could see
outside the window.
The man in the other bed would
live for those one-hour periods
where his world would be
broadened and enlivened by all
the activity and color of the
outside world. Outside this window is
a park with a lovely
lake, the man by the window said. Ducks
and swans played on the water
while children sailed their
model boats. Lovers walked arm
in arm among flowers of every
color of the rainbow. Grand old
trees graced the landscape, and
a fine view of the city skyline
could be seen in the distance. As
the man by the window
described all these
details, the man on the other side
of the room would close his
eyes and imagine the
scene.
One warm afternoon the man
by the window described a
parade passing by. Although
the other man could not hear
the band, he could see it in his
mind's eye as the gentleman by
the window portrayed it with
descriptive words.
Unexpectedly, an bad thought
entered his head: Why should
he have all the pleasure of seeing
everything while I never get to
see anything? It seems
unfair. As the thought compiled,
the man felt ashamed at first.
But as the days passed and he
missed seeing more sights, his
envy eroded into resentment
and soon turned him sour. He
began to brood and found
himself unable to sleep. "I should be by that window" was all he kept thinking day after day.
Late one night, as he lay on his back, staring
at the ceiling, the man by the
window began to cough terribly. He
was choking on the fluid in his
lungs. The other man watched
in the dimly lit room as the
struggling man by the window
groped for the button to call for
help. Listening from across the
room, he never moved, never
pushed his own button which
would have brought the nurse
running in. In less than five
minutes, the coughing and
choking stopped, along with
the sound of breathing. Now,
there was nothing more but silence--deathly
silence.
The following morning, the day
nurse arrived to bring water for
their baths. When she found the
lifeless body of the man by the
window, she was saddened and
called the hospital attendant to
take it away--no words, no
fuss. As soon as it seemed
appropriate, the man asked if
he could be moved next to the
window. The nurse was happy
to make the switch and after
making sure he was
comfortable, she left him alone.
Slowly, painfully, he propped
himself up on one elbow to take
his first look into the outside world. Finally, he would
have the joy of seeing it all
himself. He strained to slowly
turn to look out the window
beside the bed. It faced a blank
wall. It was then the man realized that his partner who just died has been describing all sort of scenes only to make him happy. It was then all his evil thoughts dawned on him, he could have pressed the emergency button and a nurse would have attended
to him, now it's too late to help. He would have to lay there all alone, lonely, sad and...



mESSAGE OF THE STORy
The pursuit of happiness is a
matter of choice, it is a positive
attitude we consciously choose
to express. It is not a gift that
gets delivered to our doorstep
each morning, nor does it come
through the window. And I am
certain that our circumstances
are just a small part of what
makes us joyful. If we wait for
them to get just right, we will
never find lasting joy.


mORALS OF THE STORy
1. No matter the condition of things, never nurture an evil thought towards anyone.
2. Render the little help you can at every time possible. Remember, the help you render today will earn you a reward tomorrow.

iMMEDIATE ATTENTIOn [a moral story]

A doctor entered the hospital in
hurry after being called in for an
urgent surgery. He answered
the call asap, changed his
clothes & went directly to the
surgery block. He found the
boy's father pacing in the hall
waiting for the doctor. On
seeing him, the dad yelled:
"Why did U take all this time to
come? Don't U know that my
son's life is in danger? Don't U
have any sense of
responsibility?"
The doctor smiled & said:
"I am sorry, I wasn't in the
hospital & I came as fast as I
could after receiving the call......
And now, I wish you'd calm
down so that I can do my work"
"Calm down?! What if your son
was in this room right now,
would U calm down? If your
own son dies now what will U
do??" said the father angrily
The doctor smiled again &
replied: "I will say what Job said
in the Holy Book "From dust we
came & to dust we return,
blessed be the name of God".
Doctors cannot prolong lives. Go
& intercede for your son, we will
do our best by God's grace"
"Giving advises when we're not
concerned is so easy" Murmured
the father.
The surgery took some hours
after which the doctor went out
happy,
"Thank goodness!, your son is
saved!" And without waiting for
the father's reply he carried on
his way running. "If U have any
question, ask the nurse!!"
"Why is he so arrogant? He
couldn't wait some minutes so
that I ask about my son's state"
Commented the father when
seeing the nurse minutes after
the doctor left.
The nurse answered, tears
coming down her face: "His son
died yesterday in a road
accident, he was in the burial
when we called him for your
son's surgery. And now that he
saved your son's life, he left
running to finish his son's
burial."
Moral Of The Story - Never judge
anyone, because you never
know how their life is & what
they're going through"

gREEDY KING MIDAs [a moral story]

Almost everyone knows the story of a greedy king known as Midas. Even young children of this generation knows the story. But as common as the story is, It entails several moral lessons for us to learn. For the benefit of those who haven't heard or read it before... Check it out below....
.
.
.

King Midas
had lots and lots of gold. The more gold
he had the more he wanted. He even built a very big treasure house where he
stored all the gold. King Midas used to spend almost half of the day
counting the gold.
One day, as he was counting as usual,
a strange looking man appeared to him
and said he would grant him a
wish. King Midas was delighted
and said, "I would like
everything I touch to turn to
gold."
The stranger asked him,
"Oh king, Are you sure?" The king
replied, "Yes, I'm absolutely sure" So the stranger
said, "Ok, starting from tomorrow
morning with the sun rays you
will get the golden touch." The
king thought he must have been
dreaming, this couldn't be true.
But to his greatest surprise, the next day when he woke
up, he touched the bed, his
clothes, and everything turned
into gold. He was very much happy that the wish wasn't a dream.
He looked out of the
window and saw his daughter
playing in the garden. He
decided to give her a surprise
and thought she would be
happy. But before he went to
the garden he decided to read a
book. Just immediately he touched
the book, it turned into gold and he
couldn't read it. Then he decided to have breakfast, as he sat to
have the breakfast, the moment
he touched the fruit and the
glass of water, they turned to
gold. Soon, he was getting more and more hungry and
he said to himself, "I can't eat
and drink gold." Just about that
time his daughter came running
in, he gave her a welcoming hug and she
turned into a gold statue. There
were no more smiles left.
The king bowed his head and
started crying. The strange looking man who
granted the wish came again and
asked the king if he was happy
with his golden touch. The king was ashamed, he told the strange man
that he was the most miserable
man.
The stranger asked him another question,
"What
would you rather have, your
food and loving daughter or
lumps of gold and her golden
statue?"
At this point, the king cried and
asked for forgiveness. He said, "I
will give up all my gold. Please
give me my daughter back
because without her I have lost
everything worth having." The
stranger said to the king, "You
have become wiser than before"
and he reversed the spell. He got
his daughter back in his arms
and the king learned a lesson
that he never forget for the rest
of his life.


mORAL OF THE STORy
Always think very deeply before making choices, each choice you make has its own consequence so, make wise choices.

mESSAGES IN THE STORy

1. Distorted values lead to
tragedy.
2. Sometimes getting what you
want may be a bigger tragedy
than not getting what you
want.
3. Unlike in soccer games
where players can be
substituted, the game of life
allows no substitutions or
replays. We may not get a
second chance to reverse our
tragedies, as the king did.
