We get back in life what we give to others! (Moral Story)

  There was a farmer who sold a pound of butter to the baker. One day the baker decided to weight the butter to see if he was getting a pound and he found that he was not. This angered him and he took the farmer to court. The Judge asked the farmer if he was using any measure. The farmer replied, “ Your honor, I am primitive. I don’t have a proper measure, but I do have a scale.” The judge asked, “ Then how do you weight the butter?” The farmer replied, “ Your homour, long before the baker started buying butter from me, I have been buying a pound loaf of bread from him. Every day when the baker brings the bread, I put it on the scale and give him the same weight in butter. If anyone is to be blamed, it is the baker.” What is the moral of the story?

  A businessman was returning home on horseback from the annual fair in a nearby city. He had quite a big sum of money with him. It was raining heavily and the poor man was wet to the skin. He was in a bad mood and grumbled that God had given him such terrible weather for his journey. He entered a thick forest.

When he was out of danger he said to himself: “How stupid I was to moan about the bad weather, instead of accepting it patiently as a gift of God.

Always good to yourself and good to all

As saying goes, you’re your own friend; you’re your own foe. Everybody is your friend. Nobody is your foe. If you treat them well, they’ll also treat you well. If you’ll do good deeds today, tomorrow you’ll get its good result. Because good things always guide you like a friend; and bad things always misguide you like a foe. If you ever grow thorny bushes on your land, then what you’ll get, you’ll always get thorny bushes. However, if you grow flowering plant or fruit, you’ll always get blooming flowers or laden fruits. Good people never get trap in any big trouble, even God helps them. No doubt, sometimes, they are tested by the bitter situations in their lives. But they always smile happily at the end. If you’re good to yourself and good to all, you’ll never fall in any trouble in your life, because the whole world will come to you in your rescue before anything happens. Everything counts in your life- both good and bad. These are the two sides of a same coin. Good ...
