Who our best friend is

I hope you'll be blessed with this as I was.
Somewhere in Milaor, Camarines Sur, there lived a fourth grader boy whowould follow this route to school everyday: He has to cross the ruggedplains and cross the dangerous highway where vehicles are recklesslydriving to and fro. Once past this highway, the boy would take a shortcut, passing by the Church every morning just to say Hi to God, andfaithfully say his, "Magandang umaga po" in Bicol dialect. He wasfaithfully being watched by a Priest who was happy to find innocence souplifting in the morning, "Kamusta, Andoy? Papasok ka na?" "Opo padre... "he would flash his innocent grin, the priest would be touched. Hewas so concerned that one day he talked to Andoy. "From school...", headvised "Do not cross the highway, you can pass through the Church and Ican accompany you to the other side of the road...that way I can seethat you are home safe...." "Thank you father
..." "Why don't you go home ... why do you stay in this church rightafter school?" "I just want to say 'Hi' to my friend, God," and thepriest would leave the boy to spend time beside the altar, talking tohimself, but the priest was hiding behind the altar to listen to whatthis boy had to say to his heavenly FATHER.
"You know my math exam was pretty bad today, but I did not cheatalthough my seatmate is bullying me for notes... I ate one cracker anddrank my water, Itay had a bad season and all I can eat is this cracker.Thank you for this! I saw a poor kitten that was hungry and I know howhe feels so I gave my last cracker to him ... funny but I am not thathungry. Look, this is my last pair of slippers ...I may have to walkbarefoot next week, you see this is about to be broken... but it isokay....at least I am still going to school.... Some say we will have ahard season this month, some of my classmates have already stopped goingto school ....please help them get to school again, please God?...Oh,you know, Inay hit me again, it is painful, but I know this pain willpass away, at least I still have a mother.... God, you want to see mybruises? I know you can heal them.... Here... here and ....oh...blood...I guess you knew about this one huh? Please don't be mad at Inay, sheis just tired and she worries for the food in our table and my schoolingthat is why she hits us....Oh, I think I am in love ...there's thispretty girl in my class, her name is Anita ... do you think she willlike me? Anyway, at least I know you will always like me, don't have tobe anybody just to please you, you are my very best friend! Hey yourbirthday is two days from now!!!Aren't you excited? I am! Wait till you see, I have a gift for you. Butit is a surprise! I hope you will like it! Oooops, I have to go ..."then he stood up and calls out, "Padre, padre, I am finished talking tomy friend ....you can accompany me to the other side of the road now"
This routine happened everyday. Andoy never failed. Father Agaton sharedthis every Sunday to the people in his church because he has not seen avery pure faith and trust in God, a very positive look at negativesituations.
On Christmas day, Father Agaton was sick so he could not make it in theChurch; he was sent to the hospital. The Church was left to 4 manangswho would chant the rosary in 1000 miles per hour, would not smile andwould always find fault in what you do, they were also very well versedin cursing if you irritate them! They were kneeling, saying theirkilometric rosary when Andoy, coming from his Christmas party, playfullydashed in. "Hello God! I ......" "P----!! (a curse) bata ka!! Alam monang may nagdadasal!!Alis!!"
Poor Andoy was so terrified, "Where's Father Agaton? He is supposed tohelp me cross the street ...and to be able to cross the street I willhave to pass by the back door of this church not only that, I have togreet Jesus.It is His birthday, I have a gift right here...." Just as he was aboutto get the gift out of his shirt, the manang pulled his shirt and threwhim out of the church. "Susmaryosep!!! (does the sign of the crossfervently) Alis kang bata ka, kung hindi matatamaan ka!!!
So the boy had no choice but to cross the dangerous side of the road infront of the church. He crossed. A fast moving bus came in. There was ablind curve. The boy was protecting his gift inside his shirt, so he wasnot looking. There was so little time.

Andoy died on the spot. A lot of people crowded the poor boy, the bodyof a lifeless young boy ...Suddenly, out of nowhere a tall man in a purewhite shirt and pants, a face so mild and gentle, but with eyes full oftears... He came and carried the boy in His arms. He was crying. Curiousbystanders nudged the man in white, and asked, "Excuse me sir, are yourelated to this child? Do you know this child?" The man in white, Hisface mourning and in agony, looked up and answered, "He was my bestfriend." was all he said. He took the badly wrapped gift in the bloodychest of the lifeless boy, and placed it near His heart. He stood up andcarried the boy away and they both disappeared in sight. The crowd wascurious...
On Christmas Eve, Father Agaton learned of the shocking news. He visitedthe house, and wanted to verify about the man n white. He consulted theparents of Andoy. "How did you know that your son died?" "A man in whitebrought him here." sobbed the mother. "What did he say?" The fatheranswered, "He did not say anything. He was mourning. We do not know himand yet he was very lonely about our son's death, as if he knew our sonvery well. But there was
something peaceful and unexplainable about him. He gave me my son, andthen he smiled peacefully. He brushed my son's hair away from his faceand kissed him on his forehead, and then he whispered something...""What did he say?" "He said to my boy..." the father began, "Thank youfor the gift ... I will see you soon ... you will be with me..." and thefather of the boy continued, "and you know for a while, it felt sowonderful ... I cried, but I do not know why....all I know is I criedtears of joy .... I could not explain it, Father, but when that manleft, something peaceful came over me, I felt a deep sense of loveinside ... I could not explain the joy in my heart,I knew my boy is inheaven now but...tell me, Father, who is this man that my son talks toeveryday in your church, you should know because you are always there... except at the time of his death ......"Father Agaton suddenly feltthe tears welling in his eyes, with trembling knees, he murmurred, " ...He was talking to no one ...But GOD..."

THE FRENCH AND THE ENGLISHMAN


 
Make sure you scroll down to the Map after you read the joke! Watch and wait for the little Englishman to walk across the Map.

An Englishman is having breakfast, in Paris , one morning (coffee, croissants, bread, butter and jam) when a Frenchman, chewing bubble-gum, sits down next to him. The Englishman ignores the Frenchman who, nevertheless, starts a conversation.

Frenchman: 'You English folk eat the whole bread??'

Englishman (in a bad mood): 'Of course.'

Frenchman: (after blowing a huge bubble) 'We don't.  In France , we only eat what's inside. The crusts we collect in a container, recycle it, transform them into croissants and sell them to England 'The Frenchman has a smirk on his face.

The Englishman listens in silence.

The Frenchman persists: 'Do you eat jam with the bread??'

Englishman: 'Of Course.'

Frenchman: (cracking his bubble-gum between his teeth and chuckling).

'We don't. In France we eat fresh fruit for breakfast, then we put all the peels, seeds, and leftovers in containers, recycle them, transform them into jam, and sell the jam to England '

After a moment of silence, The Englishman then asks: 'Do you have sex in France ?'

Frenchman: 'Why of course we do', he says with a big smirk.

Englishman: 'And what do ! you do with the condoms once you've used them?'

Frenchman: 'We throw them away, of course.'

Englishman: 'We don't. In England , we put them in a container, recycle them, melt them down into bubble-gum, and sell them to France '

Promise Yourself

Promise yourself to be so strong that nothing can disturb your peace of mind. To talk health, happiness, and prosperity to every person you meet. To make all your friends feel like there is something in them. To look at the sunny side of everything and make your optimism come true. To think only of the best, to work only for the best, and expect only the best. To be just as enthusiastic about the success of others as you are about your own. To forget the mistakes of the past and press on the greater achievements of the future. To wear a cheerful countenance at all times and give every living person you meet a smile. To give so much time to the improvement of yourself that you have no time to criticize others. To be too large for worry, too noble for anger, and too strong for fear, and to happy to permit the presence of trouble.

CORPORATE LESSON

Once upon a time a Washer man was bringing up two donkeys.

Let us say Donkey-A and Donkey-B.

Donkey-A felt it was very energetic and could do better than the other. It always tried to pull the washer man's attraction over it by taking more load and walking fast in front of him.

Innocent Donkey-B is normal, so it will walk normal, irrespective of the washer man's presence. After a period of time, Washer man started pressurizing Donkey-B to be like Donkey-A. But Donkey-B unable to walk fast & got continuous punishment from washer man. It was crying and told personally to Donkey-A "Dear friend, only we two are here, why to  compete with each  other....we can carry equal load at normal speed ".

That made Donkey-A all the more energetic and next day it told to washer man that it can carry more load and even it can run fast also. Obviously happier washer man looked at Donkey-B.., his BP raised and he started kicking Donkey-B.

Next day with smile, Donkey-A carried more load and started running fast. But it was breathtaking for Donkey-B and it couldn't act that way....But the washer man was frustrated, so he harassed Donkey-B terribly, and finally it fell down hopelessly.

Then Donkey-A felt itself as a supreme and happily started carrying more load with great speed. But now the Load of the Donkey-B is also being carried by Donkey-A., and still it has to run fast. For some period it did, finally due to fatigue it got tired and started feeling the pain. But washer man expected more from Donkey-A. It also tried best, but couldn't cope up with his owners demand. The Washer man got angry with Donkey-A also and started harassing to take more load... Donkey-A was crying for long time and then tried its best... But it couldn't meet the owner's satisfaction.

Finally the day came when due to frustration the washer man killed Donkey-A and went for searching some other Donkeys.

It’s an endless story..........

**But the moral of the Story in Corporate and social life is......,***

"Think all colleagues are same and that everyone is capable.... Always Share the Load equally..... Don't ever act smart in front of your Boss and never try for getting over-credit...

Don't feel happy when ur colleague is under pressure.." **

It doesn't matter if u r A or B, for the Boss u shall be always DONKEY.**

And most importantly, Never Work Hard, Work Cleverly.....*
