A Story about Love

Before the world existed, Man and Woman found Virtue and Passion to be boring,

So, "Imagination" said "Why don't we play hide and seek?"

"Fool" replied "Oh yes, lets" and started to count: "80, 40, 4, 3.."

All went off and hid, except for "Love",

because.... of love's indecisiveness,

"Fool" started to count again "80, 60, 35, and 100!"

and "Love" jumped up and went and hid by a bush.

When "Fool" opened his eyes, the first person he found was "Lazy",

who was just crouching on his feet, because....he was lazy.

The second person he found was "Imagination" hiding behind a cloud

because..... she was imagination

Next, was "Innocence" who was hiding behind her hands

because..... this was innocence.

"Liar" was found over here, and not over there, where he said he would be,

because..... this was liar.

One by one all the Virtues and Passions were found except for "Love"

who was afraid of exposing herself.

"Envy", who was always preoccupied with others and not with herself,

told "Fool" that "Love" was hiding in the bushes.

"Fool" called out to "Love" to come out, but "Love" didn't come.

So all the virtues and the passions called out "Love, come out",

But again nothing happened.

This really made "Fool" angry, and he started shaking the bushes.

Just then he found a stick, and he picked it up and started poking it into

the bushes with all his might.

All at once there was a scream "Ay," and "Love" came out of the bush

holding her hands up to her eyes that had blood streaming from them.

Virtue and Passion were very, very sad, and they asked each other

what was going to happen to "Love".

But "Fool" said,

"Don't worry about "Love," I will look after her and be her eyes"

And from that day to this, that is why it is said that

"Love is blind, and only sees things through a fool's eyes!"

Wat a Beautiful Story

A son and his father were walking on the mountains.
Suddenly, his son falls, hurts himself and screams: “AAAhhhhhhhhhhh!!!”
To his surprise, he hears the voice repeating, somewhere in the mountain: “AAAhhhhhhhhhhh!!!”
Curious, he yells: “Who are you?”
He receives the answer: “Who are you?”
And then he screams to the mountain: “I admire you!”
The voice answers: “I admire you!”
Angered at the response, he screams: “Coward!”
He receives the answer: “Coward!”
He looks to his father and asks: “What’s going on?”
The father smiles and says: “My son, pay attention.”
Again the man screams: “You are a champion!”
The voice answers: “You are a champion!”
The boy is surprised, but does not understand.
Then the father explains:
“People call this ECHO, but really this is LIFE.
It gives you back everything you say or do.
Our life is simply a reflection of our actions.
If you want more love in the world, create more love in your heart.
If you want more competence in your team, improve your competence.
This relationship applies to everything, in all aspects of life.
Life will give you back everything you have given to it.”
YOUR LIFE IS NOT A COINCIDENCE. IT’S A REFLECTION OF YOU!

“The world is a looking glass and gives back to every man the reflection of his ownface.”

STORY

~~A blind boy sat on the steps of a building with a hat by his feet.

He held up a sign which said: ''I am blind, please help.''

There were only a few coins in the hat.
...

A man was walking by...

He took a few coins from his pocket 'n dropped them into the hat.

He then took the sign, turned it around, 'n wrote some words.

He put the sign back so that everyone who walked by would see the new words.

Soon the hat began to fill up....

A lot more people were giving money to the blind boy.

That afternoon the man who had changed the sign came to see how things were.

The boy recognized his footsteps 'n asked,

'Were you the one who changed my sign this morning? What did you write?

The man said, 'I only wrote the truth.

I said what you said but in a different way.

'What he had written was: "Today is a beautiful day 'n I cannot see it."

Do you think the first sign 'n the second sign were saying the same thing?

Of course both signs told people the boy was blind.

But the first sign simply said the boy was blind.

The second sign told people they were so lucky that they were not blind.

Should we be surprised that the second sign was much more effective?

Moral of the Story:

Be thankful for what you have. Be creative. Be innovative. Think differently 'n

positively.

The most beautiful thing is to see a person smiling,

'n even more beautiful is, knowing that you are the reason behind it.. ~~!!~~

THE COLOR OF FRIENDSHIP

Once upon a time the colors of the world started to quarrel. All claimed that they were the best. The most important. The most useful. The favorite. Green said:"Clearly I am the most important. I am the sign of life and of hope. I was chosen for grass, trees and leaves. Without me, all animals would die. Look over the countryside and you .will...l see that I am in the majority." Blue interrupted:"You only think about the earth, but consider the sky and the sea. It is the water that is the basis of life and drawn up by the clouds from the deep sea. The sky gives space and peace and serenity. Without my peace, you would all be nothing." Yellow chuckled:"You are all so serious. I bring laughter, gaiety, and warmth into the world. The sun is yellow, the moon is yellow, the stars are yellow. Every time you look at a sunflower, the whole world starts to smile. Without me there would be no fun." Orange started next to blow her trumpet:"I am the color of health and strength. I may be scarce, but I am precious for I serve the needs of human life. I carry the most important vitamins. Think of carrots, pumpkins, oranges, mangoes, and papayas. I don't hang around all the time, but when I fill the sky at sunrise or sunset, my beauty is so striking that no one gives another thought to any of you." Red could stand it no longer he shouted out:"I am the ruler of all of you. I am blood - life's blood! I am the color of danger and of bravery. I am willing to fight for a cause. I bring fire into the blood. Without me, the earth would be as empty as the moon. I am the color of passion and of love, the red rose, the poinsettia and the poppy." Purple rose up to his full height:He was very tall and spoke with great pomp: "I am the color of royalty and power. Kings, chiefs, and bishops have always chosen me for I am the sign of authority and wisdom. People do not question me! They listen and obey." Finally Indigo spoke, much more quietly than all the others, but with just as much determination:"Think of me. I am the color of silence. You hardly notice me, but without me you all become superficial. I represent thought and reflection, twilight and deep water. You need me for balance and contrast, for prayer and inner peace." And so the colors went on boasting, each convinced of his or her own superiority. Their quarreling became louder and louder. Suddenly there was a startling flash of bright lightening thunder rolled and boomed. Rain started to pour down relentlessly. The colors crouched down in fear, drawing close to one another for comfort. In the midst of the clamor, rain began to speak:"You foolish colors, fighting amongst yourselves, each trying to dominate the rest. Don't you know that you were each made for a special purpose, unique and different? Join hands with one another and come to me." Doing as they were told, the colors united and joined hands. The rain continued:"From now on, when it rains, each of you will stretch across the sky in a great bow of color as a reminder that you can all live in peace. The Rainbow is a sign of hope for tomorrow." And so, whenever a good rain washes the world, and a Rainbow appears in the sky, let us remember to appreciate one another.
