The Stone in the Desert

An Arab while crossing a desert came across a huge rock half buried in the sand. 

Scrawled on the boulder was this inscription:

"TURN ME OVER AND YOU WILL BENEFIT FROM IT"

The Arab felt sure there was a great treasure hidden beneath it and 

worked mightily to turn it over.

He succeeded after several hours.

But, there was no treasure there, only an inscription on the underside of the rock.

The Inscription was:

"GREED IS THE ROOT OF ALL EVIL

REMEMBER THIS AND YOU WILL BE A BETTER MAN".

Ralph Waldo Emerson's Quote

Finish each day and be done with it.

You have done what you could. 

Some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; 

forget them as soon as you can.

Tomorrow is a new day; begin it well and serenely and 

with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense.

-RALPH WALDO EMERSON

Fear

There was a lion who feared nothing except the crowing of cocks.

A chill would go down his spine whenever he heard a cock crowing.

One day he confessed his fear to the elephant, who was greatly amused.

“How can the crowing of a cock hurt you?” he asked the lion. “Think about it!”
Just then a mosquito began circling the elephant’s head, frightening him out of his wits.
“If it gets into my ear I’m doomed!” he shrieked, flailing at the insect with his trunk.
Now it was the lion’s turn to feel amused.

Moral:

If we could see our fears as others see them,

we would realise that most of our fears make no sense!

The Six Blind Men

Six blind men were asked to determine what an elephant looked like by feeling different parts of the Elephant's body.

The blind man who feels a leg says the elephant is like a pillar;
the one who feels the tail says the elephant is like a rope;
the one who feels the trunk says the elephant is like a tree branch;
the one who feels the ear says the elephant is like a hand fan;
the one who feels the belly says the elephant is like a wall; and
the one who feels the tusk says the elephant is like a solid pipe.

They argued for some time before they decide to go to the king.

A King explains to them:
"All of you are right. The reason every one of you is telling it differently is because each one of you touched the different part of the elephant. So, actually the elephant has all the features you mentioned."

Moral of the story:

This Story illustrates the principle of living in harmony with people who have different belief systems, and that truth can be stated in different ways when there is a conflict in opinions.

A student asks a teacher, "What is LOVE?"

The teacher said, "in order to answer your question, go to the wheat field and choose the biggest wheat and come back.   

But the rule is: You can go through them only once and cannot turn back to pick."

The student went to the field, go through first row, he saw one big wheat, but he wonders....may be there is a bigger one later.

Then he saw another bigger one... But may be there is an even bigger one waiting for him.

Later, when he finished more than half of the wheat field, he start to realize that the wheat is not as big as the previous one he saw, he know he has missed the biggest one, and he regretted.

So, he ended up went back to the teacher with empty hand.

The teacher told him, "This is LOVE. You keep looking for a better one, but when later you realize, you have already miss the person."

"What is MARRIAGE then?" the student asked.

The teacher said, "in order to answer your question, go to the corn field and choose the biggest corn and come back.

But the rule is: You can go through them only once and cannot turn back to pick."

The teacher told him, "this time you bring back a corn.

You look for one that is just nice, and you have faith and believe this is the best one you get.

This is MARRIAGE.
