Being A Good Neighbor

  • "There was a Nebraska farmer who grew award-winning corn. Each year he entered his corn in the state fair where it won a blue ribbon.

    One year a newspaper reporter interviewed him and learned something interesting about how he grew it.

    The reporter discovered that the farmer shared his seed corn with his neighbors. "How can you afford to share your best seed corn with your neighbors when they are entering corn in competition with yours each year?" the reporter asked.

    "Why sir," said the farmer, "didn't you know? The wind picks up pollen from the ripening corn and swirls it from field to field. If my neighbors grow inferior corn, cross-pollination will steadily degrade the quality of my corn. If I am to grow good corn, I must help my neighbors grow good corn."

    He is very much aware of the connectedness of life. His corn cannot improve unless his neighbor's corn also improves. So it is in other dimensions.

    Those who choose to be at peace must help their neighbors to be at peace.

    Those who choose to live well must help others to live well, for the value of a life is measured by the lives it touches.

    And those who choose to be happy must help others to find happiness for the welfare of each is bound up with the welfare of all.

    The lesson for each of us is this: 

    If We are to Grow Good Corn, We Must Help Our Neighbors Grow Good Corn."

    Asking The Right Question

  • Jack and Max are walking from religious service. Jack wonders whether it would be all right to smoke while praying.

    Max replies, "Why don't you ask the Priest?"

    So Jack goes up to the Priest and asks, "Father, may I smoke while I pray?"

    The Priest replies, "No, my son, you may not! That's utter disrespect to our religion."

    Jack goes back to his friend and tells him what the good Priest told him.

    Max says, "I'm not surprised. You asked the wrong question. Let me try."

    And so Max goes up to the Priest and asks, "Father, may I pray while I smoke?"

    To which the Priest eagerly replies, "By all means, my son. By all means. You can always pray whenever you want to."

    Ask: "Can I keep working on this Project while I'm on Vacation?"

    Moral:

    The Reply You get Depends on the Question You Ask.

    This is Life

  • God created the donkey and said to him: "You will be a donkey. You will work un-tiringly from sunrise to sunset carrying burdens on your back. You will eat grass, you will have no intelligence and you will live 50 years."

    The donkey answered: "I will be a donkey, but to live 50 years is much. Give me only 20 years."
    God granted his wish...

    God created the dog and said to him: "You will guard the house of man. You will be his best friends. You will eat the scraps that he gives you and you will live 30 years. You will be a dog."

    The dog answered: "Sir, to live 30 years is too much, give me only 15 years."
    God granted his wish...

    God created the monkey and said to him: "You will be a monkey. You will swing from branch to branch doing tricks. You will be amusing and you will live 20 years."
    The monkey answered: "To live 20 years is too much, give me only 10 years."
    God granted his wish...

    Finally, God created a man and said to him: "You will be a man, the only rational creature on the face of earth. You will use your intelligence to become master over all animals. You will dominate the world and you will live 20 years."

    Man responded: "Sir, I will be a man but to live only 20 years is very little, give me the 30 years that the donkey refused, the 15 years that the dog did not want and the 10 years the monkey refused."
    God granted man's wish...

    And since then, man lives 20 years as a man, marries and spends 30 years like a donkey, working and carrying all the burdens on his back. Then when his children are grown, he lives 15 years like a dog taking care of the house and eating whatever is given to him, so that when he is old, he can retire and live 10 years like a monkey, going from house to house, from one son or daughter to another doing tricks to amuse his grandchildren.

    Four Things that You Cannot Recover

  • A Young lady was waiting for her flight in the boarding room of a big airport. As she would need to wait many hours, she decided to buy a book to spend her time. She also bought a packet of cookies. She sat down in an armchair, in the VIP room of the airport, to rest and read in peace.

    Besides the armchair where the packet of cookies lay, a man sat down in the next seat, opened his magazine and started reading. When she took out the first cookie, the man took one also. She felt irritated but said nothing. She just thought: “What a nerve! If i was in the mood i would punch him for darling!”. For each cookie she took, the man took one too.

    This was infuriating her but she didn’t want to cause a scene. When only one cookie remained, she thought: “ah.. What this abusive man do now?”. Then, the man, taking the last cookie, divided it into half, giving her one half.

    Ah!

    Thats was too much! She was too angry now!.

    In a huff, she took her book, her things and stormed to the boarding place.

    When she sat down in her seat, inside the plane, she looked into her purse to take her eyeglasses, and, to her surprise, her packet of cookies was there, untouched, unopened!

    She felt so ashamed!! She realized that she was wrong…..

    She had forgotten that her cookies were kept in her purse. The man divided his cookies with her, without feeling angered or bitter.

    While she had been angry, thinking that she was dividing her cookies with him.

    And now there was no chance to explain herself nor to apologize.

    There are FOUR Things that you cannot recover.

    The Stone… …after the throw!

    The Word… …after it’s said!

    The Occasion… …after the loss!

    The Time… …after it’s gone!
