MONEY is MONEY but LOVE is DIVINE| Beautiful Love Story


Once upon a time, there was once a guy who was very much in love with a girl. This romantic guy folded 1000 pieces of paper cranes as a gift to his girl. Although, at that time he was just a small executive in his company, his future does not seemed too bright, they were very happy together. Until one day, his girl told him she was going to Paris and will never come back. She also told him that she cannot visualize any future for the both of them, so let’s go their own ways there and then… heartbroken, the guy agreed.


When he regained his confidence, he worked hard day and night, slogging his body and mind just to make something out of himself. Finally with all these hard work and with the help of friends, this guy had set up his own company…
“You never fail until you stop trying.” he always told himself. “I must make it in life!”

One rainy day, while this guy was driving, he saw an elderly couple sharing an umbrella in the rain walking to some destination. Even with the umbrella, they were still drenched. It did not take him long to realize those were his ex-girlfriend’s parents. With a heart in getting back at them, he drove slowly beside the couple, wanting them to spot him in his luxury sedan. He wanted them to know that he was not the same anymore, he had his own company, car, condo, etc. He had made it in life!

Before the guy can realize, the couple was walking towards a cemetery ,and he got out of his car and followed them… and he saw his ex-girlfriend, a photograph of her smiling sweetly as ever at him from her tombstone… and he saw his precious paper cranes in a bottle placed beside her tomb. Her parents saw him. He walked over and asked them why this had happened. They explained, she did not leave for France at all. She was stricken ill with cancer. In her heart, she had believed that he will make it someday, but she did not want her illness to be his obstacle … therefore she had chosen to leave him.

Take this moment to show “love” to all that are close to us. ♥


She had wanted her parents to put his paper cranes beside her, because, if the day comes when fate brings him to her again he can take some of those back with him. The guy just wept …the worst way to miss someone is to be sitting right beside them but knowing you can’t have them and will never see them again.

The End.”
A tragic story that perhaps happens only in the movies. At the end of the day, MONEY is MONEY but LOVE is DIVINE.

In our quest for our material wealth, take time to make time for our loved ones. There will be a time when we have only memories to cling to.

Take this moment to show “love” to all that are close to us. ♥

I Opt for the Best | STORIES OF FRIENDSHIPs AND LOVE





A man went to a fruit shop. He inspected different fruits and asked for their price. He bought one kilogram of the costliest grapes. When he started moving away the shopkeeper asked for the price. He replied that he had no money. The shopkeeper reduced the price and asked him to pay. He gave the same answer. The shopkeeper thrice reduced the price but the man gave the same reply that he had no money. At last the angry shopkeeper asked, “If you have no money then why did you take the costliest grapes.”



The man raised his head and said, “Well gentleman, when there is the question of quality I opt for the best.” He promised to pay the next month and returned.



The next morning the same man went to the best physician.He was examined there. When he started moving away the doctor asked for the fee. The man replied that he had no money. The humble doctor reduced his fee by half and asked him to pay. With he add own the man said that he had no money. The doctor was puzzled. He asked, “If you have no money then why did you come to the best and costliest doctor of the town?”

The man proudly raised his head and said, “Well gentle man, when there is the question of quality I opt for the best.” He promised to pay the next month and moved away.

Moral
We need balance every where, both in quality and quantity.

Love, Unity, Care, Satisfaction is richer than any comfort money gives


One day, the father of a very wealthy family took his daughter on a trip to the country with the express purpose of showing him how poor people live. They spent a couple of days and nights on the farm of what would be considered a very poor family.

On their return from their trip, the father asked, “How was the trip?”
“It was great, Dad.”

“Did you see how poor people live?” the father asked.
“Oh yeah,” said the daughter.

 Father asked  “So, tell me, what did you learn from the trip?”
The daughter answered: “I saw that we have one dog and they had four. We have a pool that reaches to the middle of our garden and they have a creek that has no end. We have imported lanterns in our garden and they have the stars at night. Our patio reaches to the front yard and they have the whole horizon.

“We have a small piece of land to live on and they have fields that go beyond our sight.

“We have servants who serve us, but they serve others. We buy our food, but they grow theirs.
 
“We have walls around our property to protect us, they have friends to protect them.”

The girls’s father was speechless.
Then his daughter added, “Thanks Dad for showing me how poor we are.”

Moral : Love, Unity, Care, Satisfaction is richer than any comfort money gives.
