As i was sitting down in my room.. thinking about a lot of things.. happening around me.. and also.. things happening in this world.. i started to wonder into the world of cyber.. and.. i found an article.. which was interesting.. so i wish to share with everyone.. coze i think.. it's beautiful.. and has message in it..
I broke that article into situations.. for u guys to ponder..
In a biology exam.. a student did not answer the last question which was "what is the name of our chansselor ? " The student left it empty.. and handed in the answer paper.. suddenly another student.. asked the professor "will the last question be marked?".. "Certainly !! " answered the professor.. and said that.. we will meet a lot of people in our life.. and each will have some degree of importance. All of them deserve ur attention even if its a small smile or a simple hello.. so do not take anyone for granted.. so this student regreted and went urgently to find the name of the chansselor..
On a rainy.. dark night in the streets of the US.. there was this black women standing by the roadside.. her car was broke down and desperately needed help.. she was soaking wet in the rain.. and signalled a passer by.. a very young white man.. stopped to help her as if he is unaware of the racial conflicts which was tearing apart US at that time ( 60's ).. He brought her to a safe place and contacted a mechanic to repair her car and also got her a taxi.. the woman seemed too much in a hurry.. did not forget to take down his address on a piece of paper.. and left.. 7 days pass by.. and someone knocked on this young guy's door.. and he was enourmously suprised.. to receive a courier which was a huge packet.. he was even more suprised and touched when he opened and found a big colour TV and a note saying " thank you for helping me the other night.. i was helpless that time.. thanks to you I was able to reach my dying husband in time.. God bless you for having helped me.. sincerely.. Mrs King Cole"..
Sometime ago when ice cream was not that expensive.. there was this young boy who went to the ice cream parlour to get one.. while sitting on the table.. he asked.. " How much does a sundae cost? " the waitress replied.. " 50 cents ".. the boy took out the money from his pocket and began counting it.. then he asked again.. " How much does a simple ice cream cost? " there were other customers also waiting.. so she replied " 35 cents !! ".. rudely coze she hated him.. the boy counted his money again and said.. " Please give me a simple ice cream".. the waitress served him the ice cream and the bill.. the boy ate the ice cream and and went to the casher to pay his bill and left.. when the waitress went to clean the table.. she began to cry.. coze.. there was 15 cents on the corner of the plate.. which was her tip.. the boy took a simple ice cream instead of a sundae.. to give the waitress tips despite her being so rude to him..
If u have never experienced the danger of war.. slavery and the torture and pain of hunger.. then you are ahead of 500 million who live in this world..
If u have food in ur fridge.. clothes to wear.. roof on top of ur head and a place to sleep.. then u r richer than 75% people who live in this earth..
If u can go to the place for worship without being threatened.. arrested.. tortured.. or killed.. then u r luckier than the 3000 000 000 persons in this world..
If u have money in ur bank.. ur wallet and some change in some little box.. then u r one of the world's 8% well to do population..
If u can read this today.. u have just received a double blessing..
one.. coze someone is thinking about u..
two.. coze u r not one of the 2000 000 000 people who r illiterate..
Someone once told..
WORK as if u have no need of the money..
LOVE as if no one has ever made u suffer..
DANCE as if no one is watching u..
SING as if nobody is hearing u..
LIVE as if paradise were on this earth..
So.. this is what i learned from reading that article.. so i put all this in my words for u all to read.. the most surprising thing is.. i could not find the same article again.. when i searched for it in the internet.. it just appeared to me.. and vanished..
10q for the patience to completely read all of it.. coze i spend the whole nite for this.. which i dont regret.. pls send this blog's link to all that u think may be important to u.. especially to ur treasures (frenz)..
