i WOULD LIKE TO SHARE HERE 3 STORIES I TELL MY KIDS AT SCHOOL...
LIFE IS AN ECHO
When we shout into a cave what we hear back is only an echo. You shout blessings it gets reflected back through the sound waves. You shout expletives thats what you hear in return...
YOU SEE WHAT YOU WANT TO SEE
A stranger walked upto an oldman sitting in a town square. He asked him 'm new here...what kind of a place is this and how are the people?
The sagacious old man asked him, 'tell me about the place you come from...the stranger said people were kind, helpful and generous...the oldman said that is how you'd find folks here.
SPEAK WITH CAUTION
A child was tossing a bag that contained words. Her mom warned her'lil one be careful'the child unmindful of the words kept tossing the bag ...it bust open and the words were scattered about...a sudden gust of wind tossed them further and a heavy downpower made it float away
I tell my kids to look for the message for life in these stories...we can score a perfect 10 and earn all the money possible...yet what determines who we are is the way we make others feel.
As Preeti very well put it we are mature adults capable of discerning good from the bad, right from the wrong, necessary from the not so fine...when we realise we have crossed our limits, if we are watchful we will learn from it and never repeat it...if the pattern continues it means our intent is that ...
Sorry is in my point of view the most mis used word...when it is felt, it need not be verbalised our actions reveal it
The folks that have bonded over the story and woven an incredible bond of affection and care not even knowing the names or where some stay or what their condition is...
We love to hang out together and engage in friendly banter...binding us together is mutual respect care affection...there is no popularity poll or rolling shield to claim...if we can contribute to the energy we should and savour our share as well...if we add a drop of whatever that alters the nature or the manner the group functions...we must be wary and exercise great self restraint...it is by choice that we participate in the discussions on the thread...there is so no cover charge...there is only respect and care that is required
