Good Morning Friends,

?

"Instead of putting others down, try improving yourself instead. The only person you have a right to compete with is you. In the meantime, treat others how you'd like to be treated. One trait that some of the best (communicators) share is empathy. A couple of kind words cannot only make a person's day, but earn you a friend and supporter for life.

For the rest of the week, whenever you see someone you want to judge negatively, pay them a compliment instead. See what happens."

Live for Today

There was a boy, whose family was very wealthy. One day his father took him on a trip to the country, where he aimed to show his son, how poor people live. So they arrived to a farm of a very poor family, as he considered. They spent there several days. On their return, the father asked his son, did he like the trip.

?Oh, it was great, dad” – the boy replied. ?Did you notice how poor people live?” ?Yeah, I did“- said the boy. The father asked his son to tell in more details about his impressions from their trip“.

?Well, we have only one dog, and they have four of them. In our garden there is a pool, while they have a river that has no end. We‘ve got expensive lanterns, but they have stars above their heads at night. We have the patio, and they have the whole horizon. We have only a small piece of land, while they have the endless fields. We buy food, but they grow it. We have high fence for protection of our property, and they don‘t need it, as their friends protect them.”

The father was stunned. He could not say a word.

Then the boy added: ?Thank you, dad, for letting me see how poor we are.”

This story shows that the true wealth as well as happiness is not measured by materials things. Love, friendship and freedom are far more valuable.

Monday's Humor:

The Intelligent Guy

?

An out-of-towner drove his car into a ditch in a desolated area. Luckily, a local farmer came to help with his big strong horse named Buddy. He hitched Buddy up to the car and yelled, 'Pull, Nellie, pull.' Buddy didn't move. Then the farmer hollered, 'Pull, Buster, pull.' Buddy didn't respond. Once more the farmer commanded, 'Pull, Jennie, pull.' Nothing. Then the farmer nonchalantly said, 'Pull, Buddy, pull.' And the horse easily dragged the car out of the ditch. The motorist was most appreciative and very curious. He asked the farmer why he called his horse by the wrong name three times. The farmer said, 'Oh, Buddy is blind, and if he thought he was the only one pulling, he wouldn't even try!'
