LAWYER IN LIMOUSINE
Wednesday, November 11, 2009
One afternoon a lawyer was riding in his limousine when he saw two men
along the road-side eating grass.
Disturbed, he ordered his driver to stop and he got out to investigate.
He asked one man, "Why are you eating grass?" "We don't have any money for
food," the poor man replied. "We have to eat grass."
"Well, then, you can come with me to my house and I'll feed you," the
lawyer said.
"But sir, I have a wife and two children with me. They are over there,
under that tree."
"Bring them along," the lawyer replied.
Turning to the other poor man he stated, "You come with us, also.
The second man, in a pitiful voice, then said, "But sir, I also have a
wife and SIX children with me!"
"Bring them all, as well," the lawyer answered.
They all entered the car, which was no easy task, even for a car as large
as the limousine was.
Once underway, one of the poor fellows turned to the lawyer and said,
"Sir, you are too kind. Thank you for taking all of us with you."
The lawyer replied, "Glad to do it. You'll really love my place. The grass
is almost a foot high"
THINGS ARE TO BE USED PEOPLE ARE TO BE LOVED
Tuesday, November 3, 2009
While a man was polishing his new car, his 4 yr old son picked up a stone and scratched a few lines on the side of the car. In anger, the man took the child's hand and hit it many times; (not realizing he was using a wrench). At the hospital, the child lost all his fingers due to multiple fractures.
When the child saw his father (with painful eyes), he asked, 'Dad when will my fingers grow back?'
The man was so hurt and speechless; he went back to his car and kicked it a lot of times. Devastated by his own actions, sitting in front of that car he looked at the scratches; the child had written 'LOVE YOU DAD'.
The next day that man committed suicide. Anger and Love have no limits; choose the latter to have a beautiful, lovely life.
Things are to be used and People are to be loved.
The problem in today's world is that, People are used and Things are loved.
During the day, be careful to keep this thought in mind: Things are to be used, but People are to be loved.
Be yourself, this is the only day we have. Have a nice day, watch your thoughts; they become words. Watch your words; they become actions.
Watch your actions; they become habits. Watch your habits they become character. Watch your character; it becomes your destiny.
