Before bidding final goodbye to Master
asked the student, ‘how to make life better?’
Placing four glasses filled with water
‘Watch it now, and learn’ said the Master
Dropped a small stone into the first one
it sunk in the water all the way down
A cotton ball he dropped in to second
it sucked the water within a second
A portion of mud mixed in the third
changed the water into slushy dirt
Spoonful of sugar into the last
made water sweet, and vanished fast
‘Not like the first’, said the student
‘living dead, useless, not prudent
Like the cotton, just taking from all
is not the life, you taught me after all
Living in sin, and polluting the world
is the way of one arrogant and proud
Let me live a life that brings sweetness
working hard, keeping God as witness’
Smiled the Master, ‘You know the way of the wise.
‘Seeing the world not
just with the eyes!’

=========================================Humor
One day a man is walking down the street when he sees an old man
with a nice looking dog, he goes over to the man and asks: 'does your dog
bite?'
The old man replies 'No never'. When the man bends down to stroke
the dog, it immediately takes a snap at his hand. The man yells, 'I thought you
said your dog does not bite!’
'I did' replies the old
man, ‘but this isn't my dog!'
