MORAL

ACRES OF DIAMONDS

There was a farmer in Africa who was happy and content. He was happy because hewas content. He was content because he was happy. One day a wise man came to himand told him about the glory of diamonds and the power that goes along with them. Thewise man said, "If you had a diamond the size of your thumb, you could have your owncity. If you had a diamond the size of your fist, you could probably own your owncountry." And then he went away. That night the farmer couldn't sleep. He was unhappyand he was discontent. He was unhappy because he was discontent and discontentbecause he was unhappy.The next morning he made arrangements to sell off his farm, took care of his family andwent in search of diamonds. He looked all over Africa and couldn't find any. He looked allthrough Europe and couldn't find any. When he got to Spain, he was emotionally,physically and financially broke. He got so disheartened that he threw himself into theBarcelona River and committed suicide.Back home, the person who had bought his farm was watering the camels at a streamthat ran through the farm. Across the stream, the rays of the morning sun hit a stone andmade it sparkle like a rainbow. He thought it would look good on the mantle piece. Hepicked up the stone and put it in the living room. That afternoon the wise man came andsaw the stone sparkling. He asked, "Is Hafiz back?" The new owner said, "No, why doyou ask?" The wise man said, "Because that is a diamond. I recognize one when I seeone." The man said, no, that's just a stone I picked up from the stream. Come, I'll showyou. There are many more." They went and picked some samples and sent them foranalysis. Sure enough, the stones were diamonds. They found that the farm was indeedcovered with acres and acres of diamonds.


What is the moral of this story?

There are five morals:

1. When our attitude is right, we realize that we are all walking on acres and acres ofdiamonds.Opportunity is always under our feet. We don't have to go anywhere. All we need to do is recognize it.

2. The grass on the other side always looks greener.

3. While we are dyeing the grass on the other side, there are others who are dyeing thegrass on our side. They would be happy to trade places with us.

4. When people don't know how to recognize opportunity, they complain of noise when itknocks.

5. The same opportunity never knocks twice. The next one may be better or worse, but itis never the same one.

They then went up to the dean and said that they had gone out to a Wedding last night and on their return the tyre of their car burst and they had to push the car all the way back and that they were in no condition to appear for the test.
The dean was a just person so he said that you can have the retest after 3 days.they said they will be ready by that time.
On the third day they appeared before the dean. The dean said that this was a special condition test. All four were required to sit in separate classrooms for the test.
They all agreed as they had prepared well in the last three days.
The test consisted of 2 questions with total of 100 marks.

Imagine this ...simply superb answer....

You are driving along your car on a wild, stormy night, it's raining heavily, when suddenly you pass by a bus stop, and you see three people
waiting for a bus:

1. An old lady who looks as if she is about to die.

2. An old friend who once saved your life.

3. The perfect partner you have been dreaming about.

Which one would you choose to offer a ride to, knowing very well that there could only be one passenger in your car?





Think before you continue reading...

.........





.........




......

This is a moral/ethical dilemma that was once actually used as part of a job application.





* You could pick up the old lady, because she is going to die, and thus you should save her first;

* or you could take the old friend because he once saved your life, and this would be the perfect hence to pay him back.

* However, you may never be able to find your perfect mate again.



The candidate who was hired (out of 200 applicants) had no trouble coming up with his answer.



......

......

......

......

......

......

......

......

......



He simply answered: "I would give the car keys to my Old friend and let him take the lady to the hospital. I would stay behind and wait for the
bus with the partner of my dreams."


Sometimes, we gain more if we are able to give up our stubborn thought limitations. Never forget to "Think Outside of the Box

Funny.......(comedy quotes) etc..

English can be so complex to understand sometimes
Read the paragraph below ....and try to understand the meaning.

Two individuals proceeded towards the apex of a natural geologic
protuberance, the purpose of their expedition being the procurement of
a sample of fluid hydride of oxygen in a large vessel, the exact size
of which was unspecified. One member of the team precipitously
descended, sustaining severe damage to the upper cranial portion of
his anatomical structure; Subsequently the second member of the team
performed a self rotational translation oriented in the same direction
taken by the first team member.

SCROLL DOWN..............................




























Jack and jill went up the hill
to fetch a pail of water
Jack fell down and broke his crown
and jill came tumbling after!!!

A FRIENDLY SMILE


Everything's gone wrong today.

No one reacts to anything you say.

No matter how much you scream and cry,

the world seems to be passing you by.

No one seems to notice or care,

that you are trying to be heard over your despair.

But on one face a smile shines through,

a smile that knows and cares about you.

A smile with love to lend,

on a face you recognize as a friend.
