Different Perspectives : Know The Truth

The train has started moving. It is packed with people of all ages, mostly with the working men and women and young college guys and gals. Near the window, seated an old man with his 30 year old son. As the train moves by, the son is overwhelmed with joy as he was thrilled with the scenery outside...
"See dad, the scenery of green trees moving away is very beautiful"
This behavior from a thirty year old son made the other people feel strange about him. Every one started murmuring something or other about this son. "This guy seems to be a crack.." newly married person whispered to his wife.
Suddenly it started raining... Rain drops fell on the travelers through the opened window. The Thirty year old son, filled with joy "see dad, how beautiful the rain is."
That person’s wife got irritated with the rain drops spoiling her new suit. The person said "cant you see its raining, you old man, if your son is not feeling well get him soon to a mental asylum and don't disturb public henceforth" The old man hesitated first and then in a low tone replied " we are on the way back from hospital, my son got discharged today morning, he was a blind by birth, last week only he got his vision, these rain and nature are new to his eyes.. Please forgive us for the inconvenience caused..."

Morale :
The things we see may be right from our perspective until we know the truth. But when we know the truth our reaction to that will hurt even us. So try to understand the problem better before taking a harsh action.

Be sure there is a problem in the first place

One fine day, a bus driver went to the bus garage, started his bus,
and drove off along the route. No problems for the first few stops - a
few people got on, a few got off, and things went generally well.

At the next stop, however, a big hulk of a Pathan got on. Six feet
four, built like a wrestler, arms hanging down to the ground.

He glared at the conductor and said, "Pathan doesn't pay!" and sat
down at the back.

Conductor didn't argue with Pathan, but he wasn't happy about it. The
next day the same thing happened ? Pathan got on again, made a show of
refusing to pay, and sat down. And the next day, and the next.

This grated on the bus driver, who started losing sleep over the way
Pathan was taking advantage of poor conductor. Finally he could stand
it no longer. He signed up for body building courses, karate, judo,
and all that good stuff.

By the end of the summer, he had become quite strong; what's more, he
felt really good about himself. So, on the next Monday, when Pathan
once again got on the bus and said, "Pathan doesn't pay!"

The driver stood up, glared back at Pathan, and screamed, "And why not?"

With a surprised look on his face, Pathan replied, "Pathan has a bus pass."

Management Lesson:

Be sure there is a problem in the first place before working hard to solve one.

What to do when you are trapped in a lift??


We never know when and where accidents will happen to us OR people around us.  Read on and hope this piece of information may help any of us when things do happen to ourself, our friends and our loved ones.
One day, while in a lift, it suddenly broke down and it was falling from level 13 at a fast speed.  Fortunately, I remembered watching a TV program that taught  you must quickly press all the buttons for all the levels.
Finally, the lift stopped at the 5th level.
 
When you are facing life and death situations, whatever decisions or actions you make decides your survival.
If you are caught in a lift  breakdown, first thought in mind may be 'waiting to die'...

But after reading below, things will definitely be different the next time you are caught in a lift.
First  - Quickly press all the different levels of buttons in the lift.
When the emergency electricity supply is being activated, it will stop the lift from falling further.

 Second - Hold on tight to the handle (if there is any).
It is to support your position and prevent you from falling or getting hurt when you lost your balance.

Third - Lean your back and head against the wall forming a straight line.
Leaning against the wall is to use it as a support for your back/spine as protection.

Fourth - Bend your knees
Ligament is a flexible, connective tissue.  Thus, the impact of fractured bones will be minimised  during fall.
For everyone, do send out this piece of information to all!

Hearing problem... a short story



A man feared his wife wasn't hearing as well as she used to and he
thought she might need a hearing aid. Not quite sure how to approach
her, he called the family Doctor to discuss the problem. The Doctor
told him there is a simple informal test the husband could perform
to give the Doctor a better idea about her hearing loss.

Here's what you do," said the Doctor, "stand about 40 feet away from
her, and in a normal conversational speaking tone see if she hears
you. If not, go to 30 feet, then 20 feet, and so on until you get a
response.

"That evening, the wife is in the kitchen cooking dinner, and he was
in the den. He says to himself, "I'm about 40 feet away, let's see
what happens." then in a normal tone he asks, 'Honey, what's for
dinner?" No response. So the husband moves to closer to the kitchen,
about 30 feet from his wife and repeats, "Honey, what's for dinner?"
Still no response. Next he moves into the dining room where he is
about 20 feet from his wife and asks, Honey, what's for dinner?"
Again he gets no response so; He walks up to the kitchen door, about
10 feet away. "Honey, what's for dinner?" Again there is no
response. So he walks right up behind her.

"Honey, what's for dinner?" ;;;;"James, for the FIFTH time I've
said, CHICKEN!"


Moral of the story:
The problem may not be with the other one as we always think, could
be very much within us..! 

KEEP ROCKING N SMILING :)
