Hi,
Here's my next post talking about Understanding

Let me tell you a little story of a rich Goan landlord who once asked his parish priest-- 'Why does everybody call me stingy when everyone knows that when I die I will leave everything I have to this church?'
The priest said; 'There once was a pig and a cow in this village. The pig was unpopular and the cow was loved by all in the village. This puzzled the pig. The pig said to the cow, 'people speak warmly of your good nature and your helpful attitude. They think you are very generous because each day you give them milk, butter and cheese. But… What about me? I give them everything I have. I give them the famous Goa sausages, bacon and ham. I also provide ingredients for mouth-watering sorpotel. Yet no one likes me. Why is that?'
The priest continued: ' Do you know what the cow answered? '
The Cow said, ' Perhaps it's because I give while I am still living.'

Dear Pawan,
Thanks for sharing. I would also like to share a heart-touching story with all of you.
A doctor entered the hospital in a hurry after being called in for an urgent surgery. He answered the call asap, changed his clothes, and went directly to the surgery block. He found the boy's father pacing in the hall waiting for the doctor. On seeing him, the dad yelled:
"Why did you take all this time to come? Don't you know that my son's life is in danger? Don't you have any sense of responsibility?"
The doctor smiled and said:
"I am sorry, I wasn't in the hospital and I came as fast as I could after receiving the call... And now, I wish you'd calm down so that I can do my work."
"Calm down?! What if your son was in this room right now, would you calm down? If your own son dies now what will you do?" said the father angrily.
The doctor smiled again and replied: "I will say what Job said in the Holy Book, 'From dust we came and to dust we return, blessed be the name of God.' Doctors cannot prolong lives. Go and intercede for your son, we will do our best by God's grace."
"Giving advice when we're not concerned is so easy," murmured the father.
The surgery took some hours after which the doctor went out happy,
"Thank goodness! Your son is saved!" And without waiting for the father's reply he carried on his way running. "If you have any questions, ask the nurse!"
"Why is he so arrogant? He couldn't wait some minutes so that I ask about my son's state," commented the father when seeing the nurse minutes after the doctor left.
The nurse answered, tears coming down her face: "His son died yesterday in a road accident, he was in the burial when we called him for your son's surgery. And now that he saved your son's life, he left running to finish his son's burial."
Moral: Never judge anyone because you never know how their life is and what they're going through.
