WHAT GOES AROUND ,COMES AROUND

    We often get frustrated in life when we see good people getting bad luck and bad people getting away with no punishment. I have seen this on number of occasions in this country in last few years  in Washington DC. So one wonders if there is justice or not . But we all react to the bad  behavior in the same way . Only saints can react to bad action by good action. This is one of the stories from animal world. In PANCHANTRA there are stories of animals  and the animals talk . But the behavior is similar in human beings.

   There was a forest and a fox  and a stork became friend . The fox was cunning  and stork was honest and believed that the friendship could be real. One day the fox invited the stork for a dinner . The fox had a prepared a milk product where sugar and other spices are added  and he served it at the time of a dinner. But he was cunning and so he served the milk in a flat plate . The for could drink it from the plate as he does it with tongue. But the stork who has a long thin beak, could not get a drop of this delicious milk. So the stork went home hungry and starved.Then next week he invited the fox for the dinner . This time he served the milk -same type with added sugar and some spices  and it was delicious. But he served it in a jug with long narrow neck. So this time for could not get a drop of milk but the stork could drink it with his long beak like a straw. The fox had to go home hungry and starving. 

    This is tit for tat or what goes around comes around.

TRUTH IS ONE BUT WISW MEN INTERPRETE IT DIFFERENTLY

    We often see that wise men or intellectuals often disagree with each other. Each one believes that he has a truth and the other person is wrong .But the truth is one and one only  and at times there is no truth. Einstein stated that the time is relative  and the truth for the guy standing on platform watching what is happening in the ongoing train is different than the man on the train watching the same thing . So both believe that they are right and their observation is different. So there may be no truth as such according to Einstein. Recently in election each side believes that their candidate won. In this case there is truth  and one can find it out. So I am talking about that kind of situation. 

  This story happened on a train . There were 4 people traveling on a train. An older lady ,a young girl and 2 young men . When the train was going through the tunnel, the lights went off . There was a sound of kissing followed by slapping . So the old lady thought that one of the young men kissed the young girl and she slapped . That is her truth. The young lady thought that these young men are stupid and one of them kissed the old lady while I am here . That was her truth. One of the young men thought that that the other one kissed the girl and she slapped ME. That was the his truth. But in reality the last person - the young man - had kissed his own palm  and slapped the other man. So each one of these person belived that they had the truth and only one truth existed  and only one person knew it. 

   In life sometimes we have to see things through other person's eyes or may be brain . We have color vision but the dog does not have it and everything is black and white . The dog can perceive sound of frequency that human ear is unable to and so it hears the sound that we can not . So JUST BECAUSE WE CAN'T SEE OR HEAR DOES NOT MEAN IT IS NOT TRUE.

DECISION

     We often have questions in life  and we ask people what would they do  and then there are conflicting answers .Now a days if we do google search we will get some answers  and that may not be the same . So this short story is related to that. 

    The story is from India but could be happening anywhere . In a small town there lived a man  and his family . They wanted to to distant bigger town to do some business  buy and sale things . So the man and his son started walking to attend the  market. They had their donkey with them to carry some of the stuffs' they started they were walking along the side of the donkey. They saw a town 'wise man'. As he approached  and saw them walking he stopped  and told them that they were stupid not to ride on the donkey  and suggested that one of you can get on the donkey . So the father mounted on the donkey. The sun was rising in the sky  and temperature was increasing and they saw a lady who was mother. She stopped  and told the father 'Are you not ashamed of asking this poor small child to walk in this summer heat and you- an adult riding on the donkey?' So the father got down  and the son mounted the donkey and started riding . After a short time they saw older man  and he stopped by  and stated 'how come poor father is walking and a young man -the son is riding ?" So now the father and son did not know what to do. They decided that they both can ride the donkey. As they started walking they saw a priest . He stopped them and made a comment that they will go to hell as they have not cared for the animal  and are riding on him both at the same time . So now they decides to carry the donkey by lifting it on their shoulders  and the donkey started kicking  and now they were approaching a small bridge . The donkey was kicking and they were forcing it be carried  and in that confusion the donkey fell in the water.

    So the moral of the story is 'listen to all the advice  and they do what YOU think is right .
