SIX LITTLE STORIES WITH LOTS OF MEANINGS

  • Once all villagers decided to pray for rain.  On the day of prayer, all the people gathered, but only one boy came with an umbrella.  That is FAITH.
  • When you throw babies in the air, they laugh because they know you will catch them.  That is TRUST.
  • Every night we go to bed without any assurance of being alive the next morning, but still we set the alarms wake up.  That is HOPE.
  • We plan big things for tomorrow in spite of zero knowledge of the future.  That is CONFIDENCE.
  • We see the world suffering, but still, we get married & have children.  That is LOVE.
  • On an old man’s shirt was written a sentence ‘I am not 80 years old; I am sweet 16 with 64 years of experience.  That is ATTITUDE.

  Have a Happy New Year, and live your life like these six stories.  Remember – Good friends are the rare jewels of life, difficult to find and impossible to replace!!
