FOR WHOM

An Elderly carpenter was ready to retire. He told his employer Contractor of his plans to leave the house building business and live a more leisurely life with his wife enjoying his extended family. He would miss the paycheck, but the needed to retire. They could get by.

The contractor was sorry to see his good worker go and asked if he could build just one more house as a personal favour. The carpenter said yes, but in time it was easy to see that his heart was not in his work. He resorted to shoddy workmanship and used inferior materials. It was an unfortunate way to end a dedicated career.

When the carpenter finished his work the employer came to inspect the house. He handed the front door key to the carpenter. “THIS IS YOUR HOUSE” he said “MY GIFT TO YOU”.

The carpenter was shocked! What a Shame! If he had only known he was building his own house. He would have done it all so differently.

So it is with us. We build our lives a day at a time, often putting less than our best into the building then with a shock we realize we have to live in the house we have built. If we could do it over, We’d do it much differently. But we cannot go back.

We are the carpenter. Each day we hammer a nail, place a board or erect a wall.

Life is a “DO IT YOURSELF” project, our attitude and the choices we make today, built the HOUSE we live in tomorrow. We must build wisely.

REMBER ………….

Work like you don’t need the money. Love like you’ve never been hurt. Dance like nobody is watching.

Ia a job is worth doing, it ‘s worth doing well.

Successful people help others who are slow in learning so that they are not felt far behind

Here I am sharing one interesting article which was received two years ago through mail in my mail box, sent by one of his friend.

This article is very interesting and teaches us a good lesson.

“It was a sports stadium. Eight students were standing on the track to participate in the running event.

Ready!
Steady!
Bang!

With the sound of toy pistol, all eight girls started running. Hardly have they covered ten to fifteen steps, one of the smaller girl slipped and fell down, due to bruises and pain she started crying. When other seven girls heard this sound, stopped running, stood for a while and turned back, they all ran back to the place where the girl fell down.

One among them bent, picked and kissed the girl gently and enquired “Now pain must have reduced”.

All seven girls lifted the fallen girl, pacified her, two of them held the girl firmly and they all seven joined hands together and walked together and reached the winning post.

Officials were socked.
Clapping of thousands of spectators filled the stadium.
Many eyes were filled with tears and perhaps it had reached the GOD event!
YES. This happened in Hyderabad, recently!

The sport was conducted by national institute of mental health. All these special girl had come to participate in this event and they are spastic children.

Yes, they were mentally challenged.

What did they teach this world?
Teamwork?
Humanity?
Equality among all?
……..????

Successful people help others who are slow in learning so that they are not felt far behind.
Have a good day!
