Goodbye Prayer (Funny Story)

 A father put his 3 year old daughter to bed, told her a story and listened to her prayers which ended by saying: "God bless Mommy, God bless Daddy, God bless Grandma and goodbye Grandpa."



 The father asked, "Why did you say goodbye Grandpa?"



 The little girl said, "I don't know daddy, it just seemed like the thing to do."



 The next day grandpa died. The father thought it was a strange coincidence.



 A few months later the father put the girl to bed and listened to her prayers which went like this: "God bless Mommy, God Bless Daddy and goodbye Grandma." The next day the grandmother died.



 "Holy Moley, thought the father, this kid is in contact with the other side.



 Several weeks later when the girl was going to bed the dad heard her say: "God bless Mommy and goodbye Daddy." He practically went into shock.



 He couldn't sleep all night and got up at the crack of dawn to go to his office. He was nervous as a cat all day, had lunch and watched the clock. He figured if he could get by until midnight he



 Would be okay. He felt safe in the office, so instead of going home at the end of the day he stayed there, drinking coffee, looking at his watch and jumping at every sound.



 Finally, midnight arrived, he breathed a sigh of relief and went home. When he got home his wife said, "I've never seen you work so late, what's the matter?"



 He said, "I don't want to talk about it, I've just spent the worst day of my life."



 She said, "You think you had a bad day, you'll never believe what happened to me. This morning my golf professor dropped dead in the middle of my lesson.

I  was seated ,Standing  there I could see,

 he  wanted  and needed  to cry.

good-bye  to someone knowing it would be forever ?.





"Yes  , I have , I  replied.

Forgive  me for  asking, but  why is this a

forever good-bye ?.

Iam  old , and she lives so far away.

I  have  challenges ahead and the reality is ,

the next  trip  back will be for my funeral, "he said.





"When  you were saying good -bye,

I heard  you say , I  wish you enough"..

May  I ask  what that means ?.



He began to smile, "That 's  a wish that has been

handed  down from other generations,

My  parents  used to say it to everyone".

He  paused  a moment and  looked  up as if,

trying  to remember  it in detail , and he smiled ever more, When  we said, I wish you enough,

Men are Honest (story)

 "One day, while a woodcutter was cutting a branch of a tree above a river, his axe fell into the river. When he cried out, the Lord appeared and asked, "Why are you crying?"

The woodcutter replied that his axe has fallen into water, and he needed the axe to make his living.

The Lord went down into the water and reappeared with a golden axe. "Is this your axe?" the Lord asked.

The woodcutter replied, "No."

The Lord again went down and came up with a silver Axe. "Is this your axe?" the Lord asked.

Again, the woodcutter replied, "No."

The Lord went down again and came up with an iron Axe. "Is this your axe?" the Lord asked.

The woodcutter replied, "Yes."

The Lord was pleased with the man's honesty and gave him all three axes to keep, and the woodcutter went home happy.

Some time later the woodcutter was walking with his wife along the riverbank, and his wife fell into the river. When he cried out, the Lord again appeared and asked him, "Why are you crying?"

"Oh Lord, my wife has fallen into the water!"

The Lord went down into the water and came up with ANGELINA JOLIE "Is this your wife?" the Lord asked..

"Yes," cried the woodcutter.

The Lord was furious. "You lied! That is an untruth!"

The woodcutter replied, "Oh, forgive me, my Lord. It is a misunderstanding. You see, if I had said 'no' to ANGELINA JOLIE , You would have come up with AISHWARYA RAI. Then if I said 'no' to her, you would have come up with my wife . Had I then said 'yes,' you would have given me all three. Lord, I am a poor man, and am not able to take care of all three wives, so THAT'S why I said yes to ANGELINA JOLIE ."

MORAL OF THE STORY: Whenever a man lies, it is for a good and honorable reason, and for the benefit of others.

A HEART Touching Story (Doctor)



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 sens...e of responsibility?"

Th...e 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-Never judge anyone..... because U never know how their life is & what they're going through"

The laws of the jungle are different from those of the village (Panchatantram Story)

A Story from Panchatantram of Vishnu Sharma



In a forest there lived a lion called Madotkata.  His constant companions and stooges were on tiger, one crow and as always a fox.



Once when the dada lion was going around with his chamchas, the saw a Camel  names Kadhanaka who had strayed into the forest  from the caravan of a trader and was loitering around aimlessly in the forest.



It was perhaps for the  first time that the lion was seeing a camel.. He was taken aback by the size and carriage of the animal. “Oh God, this is not an ordinary beast.  Do you know whether he is of the forest or of the village??  .   “My lord, he is a domesticated fellow. He has filled his body with flesh eating all sorts of grass and vegetable. His flesh is so delicious. He is eminently suitable for you dinner? Chimed in the crow.



In his apparent grace, the lion said. “ This animal has come to my house with full trust.  That too without any fear of danger.  It is improper to kill him.  Mind you, if one kills somebody who has come as a guest to his house, then he incurs  the ultimate sin of killing a Brahmin.  Hence I am going to grant him refuge.  Please lead him to my presence with all honour.?



Accordingly the three chamchas approached the camel, delivered to him the message of their master and brought him to the lion’s presence.  “ You Kadhnaka !  You need not go back to the village and toil there carrying the heavy loads of merchandise for your mater. You can wander in this forest without fear, eating all the grass and other shrubs which grow here aplenty.  We can have your nice company also.?  Ordered the lion.



The camel believed it and without any fear  he continued to live in the forest under the tutelage of the lion.



Meanwhile the lion had to engage himself in a  huge battle with a ferocious wild elephant once.  The elephant was more than his match and the lion  sustained heavy injuries in the encounter and was rendered practically immobile.  Suffice to say that only a streak of fortune had  left spared his life.



Now it was hunger time not only for the lion but also for the three lieutenants.  The lion ordered his followers to go and search for some food which was easily available.



The three fellows were always having the huge bundle of food in the shape of the poor camel, at sight.



The four were wandering in the forest  in the futile search of  food  for the master.



The fox told the crow beyond the earshot of the camel.? You crow, this fat camel is strutting around.. Why don’t we arrange him as the food for our master and ourselves??  The crow remonstrated.? Our master is very old fashioned.  He has promised protection for the camel.  He will not hear of any idea of killing the camel?  “Do not worry, you silly crow. I will manage in such a way that the master will be enabled to kill the camel without any prick of conscience.  You just remain here and watch.?



The fox approached the lion. “Master, we have wandered all around the forest for days together and could not find any animal of prey. We are about to lose our lives for hunger. Your case is also not far different..  Sir... Why don't we finish off the camel and have some relief from hunger??  The response was as expected,  “ You wretch, you sinner, damn you, if you utter such word any more I will kill you first.  I have given him refuge.  How can I kill him.  The gift of refuge is more noble than gift of land, gift of cows, gift of food and even gift of a daughter.?



The fox was persistent.  “ My lord, you can call it a sin if you kill a person to whom you have offered refuge.  But if the persons offers himself as food out of devotion to you, can you refuse it?.  The came offers his flesh for you,  If you do not want to kill him, you can kill one of the three of us.  If you do not eat one of us, you will die of hunger and bereft of our dear master, we will be left with not choice but to commit suicide by entering fire.  The great lore say that the important leader of the clan should be protected at any cost.  If he is gone, the clan will be a chariot whose axle is gone. “



The lion said. “ If you feel so,  you people decide what to do.?



The fox returned to the other three and announced to them. “ Our master is dangerously ill out of starvation. There will be no one left to protect us if he is gone.  So to protect his life, it is our bounden duty to offer our own bodies as his food.?



After this all the four of them went near the master and sat around him, in tears.   The lion asked, “Could you find some food??



The crow came forward. “ My lord and master, we have searched every inch of this forest but we could not catch hold of any animal suitable for your food. So I am offering my own body as your food. Please eat me and be relived of your hunger.?



The  fox said.  “ You tiny crow.  Your body is very small.  It is not going to make any difference for the lord.  Anyway it befits you eminently that you have exhibited your  faithfulness to the master.



Now the fox offered his body as the food of the lion.  But the tiger chimed in.  “ Your words are appropriate.  But you are also tiny.  And the scriptures say one should not eat animals which have their nails as weapons.  So a fox should not be eaten by a lion even if it is a question of life and death.   So, I shall offer my body as the food for the master... But the lion was not interested in killing the tiger either.



So the camel thought. “ The lion is so noble.  He did not accept the idea of killing his faithful servants. And now they have become in his good books by uttering sweet words.  I will also say some nice words, and endear the master to me.  Sure, he will not kill me? .  So the camel said, “ it is rightly said by the tiger.. the animals using nails as its weapons should not be killed. But the tiger also uses his sharp nails in  his paw to catch his prey.  So he is also not deserving death.  Master, I am here,  I have no such disqualifications.  May you be pleased to eat  this my body and be happy.?



The other three were just waiting for these words,  They  jumped on the body of the camel and withing seconds, a sumptuous dinner was ready for the lion and his stooges.



The laws of the jungle are different from those of the village.  If this is not properly  understood, one will meet the fate of this camel.

King and his 4 wives (Nice Story)

Once upon a time there was a rich King who had four wives.

He loved the 4th wife the most and adorned her with rich robes and treated her to the finest of delicacies. He gave her nothing but the best.

He also loved the 3rd wife very much and was always showing her off to neighboring kingdoms. However, he feared that one day she would leave him for another.

He also loved his 2nd wife. She was his confident and was always kind, considerate and patient with him. Whenever the King faced a problem, he could confide in her, and she would help him get through the difficult times.

The King's 1st wife was a very loyal partner and had made great contributions in maintaining his wealth and kingdom. However, he did not love the first wife. Although she loved him deeply, he hardly took notice of her or even fed or clothed her properly!

One day, the King fell ill and he knew his time was short. He thought of his luxurious life and wondered, I now have four wives with me, but when I die, I'll be all alone."

Thus, he asked the 4th wife, "I have loved you the most, endowed you with the finest clothing and showered great care over you. Now that I'm dying, will you follow me and keep me company? "No way!", replied the 4th wife, and she walked away without another word. Her answer cut like a sharp knife right into his heart.

The sad King then asked the 3rd wife, "I have loved you all my life. Now that I'm dying, will you follow me and keep me company?" "No!", replied the 3rd wife. "Life is too good! When you die, I'm going to remarry!" His heart sank and turned cold.

He then asked the! 2nd wif e, "I have always turned to you for help and you've always been there for me. When I die, will you follow me and keep me company?" "I'm sorry, I can't help you out this time!", replied the 2nd wife. "At the very most, I can only walk with you to your grave." Her answer struck him like a bolt of lightning, and the King was devastated.

Then a voice called out: "I'll go with you. I'll follow you no matter where you go." The King looked up, and there was his first wife. She was very skinny as she suffered from malnutrition and neglect. Greatly grieved, the King said, "I should have taken much better care of you when I had the chance!"

In truth, we all have the 4 wives in our lives:

    Our 4th wife is our body. No matter how much time and effort we lavish in making it look good, it will leave us when we die.
    Our 3rd wife is our possessions, status and wealth. When we die, it will all go to others.
    Our 2nd wife is our family and friends. No matter how much they have been there for us, the furthest they can stay by us is up to the grave.
    Finally, our 1st wife is our Soul. Often neglected in pursuit of wealth, power and pleasures of the world. However, our Soul is the only thing that will follow us wherever we go.

MORAL: Cultivate, strengthen and cherish it now, for it is the only part of us that will follow us to the throne of God and continue with us throughout Eternity.

A Very Touching Story

 I was walking around in a Big Bazaar store making shopping, when I saw a Cashier talking to a boy couldn't have been more

Than 5 or 6 years old. The Cashier said, 'I'm sorry, but you don't have enough money to buy this doll. Then the little boy turned to me and asked: ''aunty, are you sure I don't have enough money?''

I counted his cash and replied: ''You know that you don't have enough money to buy the doll, my dear.'' The little boy was

Still holding the doll in his hand. Finally, I walked toward him and I asked him who he wished to give this doll to. 'It's the

Doll that my sister loved most and wanted so much. I wanted to Gift her for her BIRTHDAY. I have to give the doll to my mommy so that she can give it to my sister when she goes there.'

His eyes were so sad while saying this. 'My Sister has gone to be with God. Daddy says that Mommy is going to see God very soon too, so I thought that she could take the doll with her to give it to my sister.'' My heart nearly stopped.

The little boy looked up at me and said: 'I told daddy to tell mommy not to go yet. I need her to wait until I come back from the mall.' Then he showed me a very nice photo of him where he was laughing. He then told me 'I want mommy to take my picture with her so my sister won't forget me.' 'I love my mommy and I wish she doesn't have to leave me, but daddy says that she has to go to be with my little sister...' Then he looked again at the doll with sad eyes, very quietly.

I quickly reached for my wallet and said to the boy. 'Suppose we check again, Just in case you do have enough money for the doll?'' 'OK' he said, 'I hope I do have enough..' I added some of my money to his with out him seeing and we started to count it.

There was enough for the doll and even some spare money. The little boy said: 'Thank you God for giving me enough money!' Then he looked at me and added, 'I asked last night before I went to sleep for God to make sure I had enough money to buy this doll, so that mommy could give It to my sister. He heard me!'' 'I also wanted to have enough money to buy a white rose for my mommy, but I didn't dare to ask God for too much.

But He gave me enough to buy the doll and a white rose. My mommy loves white roses.'

I finished my shopping in a totally different state from when I started. I couldn't get the little boy out of my mind. Then I remembered a local news paper article two days ago, which mentioned a drunk man in a truck, who hit a car occupied by a young woman and a little girl.

The little girl died right away, and the mother was left in a critical state. The family had to decide whether to pull the plug on the life-sustaining machine, because the young woman would not be able to recover from the coma. Was this the family of the little boy?

Two days after this encounter with the little boy, I read in the news paper that the young woman had passed away.. I couldn't stop myself as I bought a bunch of white roses and I went to the funeral home where the body of the young woman was exposed for people to see and make last wishes before her burial. She was there, in her coffin, holding a beautiful white rose in her hand with the photo of the little boy and the doll placed over her chest.

I left the place, teary-eyed, feeling that my life had been changed for ever. The love that the little boy had for his mother and his sister is still, to this day, hard to imagine. And in a fraction of a second, a drunk driver had taken all this away from him.

Happiness Comes From Giving (Nice Story)

This story is about a beautiful, expensively dressed lady who complained
to her psychiatrist that she felt that her whole life was empty, it had no meaning.

So, the lady went to visit a counselor to seek out happiness.
The counselor called over the old lady who cleaned the office floors.
The counselor then said to the rich lady"I'm going to ask Mary here
to tell you how she found happiness. All I want you to do is listen to her."

So the old lady put down her broom and sat on a chair and told her story:
"Well, my husband died of malaria and three months later
my only son was killed by a car.
I had nobody... I had nothing left. I couldn't sleep, I couldn't eat,
I never smiled at anyone, I even thought of taking my own life.

Then one evening a little kitten followed me home from work.
Somehow I felt sorry for that kitten. It was cold outside, so I decided
to let the kitten in. I got it some milk, and the kitten licked the plate clean.

Then it purred and rubbed against my leg and for the first time in months,
I smiled.
Then I stopped to think, if helping a little kitten could make me smile,
maybe doing something for people could make me happy.
So the next day I baked some biscuits and took them to a neighbor
who was sick in bed.

Every day I tried to do something nice for someone.
It made me so happy to see them happy.
Today, I don't know of anybody who sleeps and eats
better than I do.
I've found happiness, by giving it to others."

When she heard that the rich lady cried.
She had everything that money could buy, but
she had lost the things which money cannot buy.
