Heaven & Hell

A holy man was having a conversation with God one day and said,

' God , I would like to know what Heaven and Hell are like.'

God led the holy man to two doors.

He opened one of the doors and the holy man looked in.

In the middle of the room was a large round table. In the middle of the table was a large pot of stew, which smelled delicious and made the holy man's mouth water.

The people sitting around the table were thin and sickly. They appeared to be famished.

They were holding spoons with very long handles, that were strapped to their arms and each found it possible to reach into the pot of stew and take a spoonful.

But because the handle was longer than their arms, they could not get the spoons back into their mouths.

The holy man shuddered at the sight of their misery and suffering.

God said, 'You have seen Hell.'

They went to the next room and opened the door. It was exactly the same as the first one.

There was the large round table with the large pot of stew which made the holy man's mouth water.

The people were equipped with the same long-handled spoons, but here the people were well nourished and plump, laughing and talking. The holy man said, 'I don't understand..'

It is simple,' said God . 'It requires but one skill.

You see they have learned to feed each other, while the greedy think only of themselves.'

Marriage

You Start with year One; and boy she's a sweet bun full of fun.

Two year in it Dude; life could'nt be more good.

Four years on; she says it all n u dont go on.

You git on the eleventh year; you lose your things that are so dear.

And when you touch yer Twenty; you are the wise counsel to a plenty.

Motivation

There was a farmer who collected horses; One day a horse became very ill so he called the veterinarian.

The vet said:

Well, your horse has a virus. We'll give him this medicine for three days. If on the 3rd day and if he's not better, we're going to have to put him down.

Standing nearby, the pig listened closely to their conversation, and approached the Horse and he wanted to motivate the Horse.

The pig said:

- Be strong, my friend. Get up or else they're going to put you to sleep! The Horse heard it, but did not make an attempt.

On the second day, the Vet gave the horse the medicine .

The pig came back to the horse and said:

-Come on buddy, get up or else you're going to die! Come on, I'll help you get up. Let's go! One, two, three..., yet the horse did not move or even try to do so.

On the third day, the vet said:

- Unfortunately, we're going to have to put him down tomorrow, otherwise, the virus might spread and infect the other horses.

After they left, the pig approached the horse and said:

- Listen pal, it's now or never! Get up, come on! Have courage! Come on! Get up! Get up! The Horse slowly responded..

The Pig goaded the Horse and every step the Horse took to get up and every effort it made, the Pig prodded it much more. finally the Horse Stood up and started Trotting. The Pig Goaded it to run, and so did the Horse.

All of a sudden, the owner came back, and saw the horse running in the field and began shouting:

- It's a miracle! My horse is cured.

This deserves a party.

So that night they Killed the Pig and feasted on it, while the Horse was fed the best feed and groomed much more well, he was the Champion who had fought back.

Points for reflection:

This often happens in most of organizations’. Sometimes nobody truly knows who actually deserves the merit of success, or who's actually contributing the necessary support to make things happen.
