I am sure many of you might have heard or read this story..I heard this story from my dad first and then from one of my friends... Its an amazingly simple story but with a lot of depth in it.. We all think that we are the busiest people in this world and have absolutely no time to do anything that is not related to work... But......
An elderly man in Mumbai calls his son in New York and says, 'I hate to ruin your day son, but I have to tell you that your mother and I are getting a divorce; 35 years of marriage... and that much misery is enough!'
'Dad, what are you talking about?' the son screams. 'We can't stand the sight of each other any longer,' the old man says. 'We're sick of each other, and I'm sick of talking about this, so you call your sister in HongKong and tell her! Frantic, the son calls his sister, who explodes on the phone. 'Like heck they're getting divorced,' she shouts, 'I'll take care of this.'
She calls Mumbai immediately, and screams at the old man, 'You are not getting divorced. Don't do a single thing until I get there. I'm calling my brother back, and we'll both be there tomorrow. Until then , don't do a thing, DO YOU HEAR??' and she hangs up.
The old man hangs up his phone and turns to his wife. 'Okay', he says, 'It's all set. They're both coming for
our anniversary and paying their own airfare!!'
MORAL:
No man / woman is busy in this world all 365 days. The sky is not going to fall if you take few days LEAVE and meet your loved ones.
OFFICE WORK IS NOT EVERYTHING IN LIFE and Making MONEY IS NOT EVERYTHING IN LIFE.
Parents are your well wishers and need your love and emotional support. Do not forget what ever you are today is only because of your parents who want nothing but the best for their child/children.
Finally
Thanks mom n dad!! Love u lots.. :)
