The Conclusion

One old man boarded a train along with his 25 years old son. The train was about to leave the station. All passengers were settling down. The young man was filled with lot of joy and curiosity. He was sitting on the window side. As the train started, he let his one hand out, feeling the passing air. He shouted, "Papa see all trees are going behind". The Old man smiled and admired his son's feelings. Beside the young man one couple was sitting and listening to the conversation between the father and son. They felt a little awkward about the attitude of a 25 years old behaving like a small child. Suddenly the young man shouted again, "Papa see the pond and animals. Clouds are moving with the train". The Couple was watching the young man embarrassingly. Now it started raining and a few water drops touched the young man's hand. Filled with joy, he closed the eyes. He shouted again, "Papa it's raining, water is touching me, see papa". The Couple couldn't resist themselves and ask the old man."Why don't you visit the Doctor and get treatment for your son." The Old man replied,"Yes, We are coming from the hospital as Today my son got his eye sight for first time in his life".

Moral: "Don’t draw conclusions until you know all the facts"..

Hang in there..

Churaofied this blog from a company website which sends insights every week..

I remember Navy boot camp like it was yesterday. It was clearly my second day from what I was wearing. I was walking single file with my unit down a hall and a sailor, who was about to graduate, passed us.He must have noticed my expression. It without a doubt said, 'I am tired, intimidated, scared and hungry.' You can't talk when walking in formation, therefore he whispered out of the side of his mouth as we passed...'Hang in there...you can do it.'I turned to look at his face, but all I saw was the back of his head. Every night before I drifted off to sleep I replayed those words. I will never know that sailor's name. He will never know how it turned my attitude around 180 degrees. He will never know that years later I still remember the electricity of encouragement that shot through my body.I knew that the only reason he knew what I was feeling is that because he had been where I was and felt how I felt. He had made it and wanted me to know that I could as well. I was eternally grateful.Then it was my turn. On my graduation day I walked into a storage facility and saw three sailors leaning up against the wall. They were new and scared, intimidated, tired and hungry. I walked over to them and whispered, 'Hang in there...you can do it.' Within a second tears filled the eyes of the female sailor and one of the males clenched his first and gave me a million thanks with his eyes.As I walked away I had goose bumps. I knew that my words would be motivation for the rest of the day and fuel every night to keep them focused on their goal of graduation when they wanted to quit. I hope they passed on the encouragement to another sailor before they graduated... and I know they did.~ Ron White

  • It's amazing that the amount of news that happens in the world every day always just exactly fits the newspaper.- Jerry Seinfeld
  • You know you're getting old when you get that one candle on the cake. It's like, "See if you can blow this out." - Jerry Seinfeld
  • The thing about birthday parties is that the first birthday party you have and the last birthday party you have are actually quite similar. You know, you just kinda sit there... you're the least excited person at the party. You don't even really realize that there is a party. You don't know what's goin' on. Both birthday parties, people have to kinda help you blow out the candles, you can't do it... you don't even know why you're doing it. What is this ritual? What is going on? It's also the only two birthday parties where other people have to gather your friends together for you. Sometimes they're not even your friends. They make the judgement. They bring 'em in, they sit 'em down, and they tell you - 'these are your friends! Tell them thank you for coming to my birthday party. - Jerry Seinfeld
