Heaven and Hell

A man spoke with the Lord about Heaven and Hell. "I will show you Hell," said the Lord. And they went into a room which had a large pot of stew in the middle. The smell was delicious and around the pot sat people who were famished and desperate. All were holding spoons with very long handless which reached to the pot, but because the handles of the spoons were longer than their arms, it was impossible to get the stew into their mouths. Their suffering was terrible.


"Now I will show you Heaven," said the Lord, and they went into an identical room. There was a similar pot of stew and the people had the same identical spoons, but they were well nourished, talking and happy.

At first the man did not understand.

"It is simple," said the Lord. "You see, they have learned to feed each other."

Special fact about the special children

It was a Sports Stadium.

Eight Children were standing on the track to participate in a running event.
* Ready! * Steady! * Bang !!!
With the sound of Toy pistol,
All eight girls started running.
Hardly had they covered ten to fifteen steps,
when one of the smaller girls slipped and fell down,
Due to bruises and pain she started crying.
When the other seven girls heard the little girl cry they stopped running, stood for a while and turned back.
Seeing the girl on the track they all ran to help.
One among them bent down, picked her up and kissed her gently
And enquired as to how she was..
They then lifted the fallen girl pacifying her.
Two of them held her firmly while all seven joined hands together and walked together towards the winning post........ .
There was pin drop silence at the spectator's stand.
Officials were shocked.
Slow claps multiplied to thousands as the spectators stood up in appreciation.
Many eyes were filled with tears
And perhaps even God's!
YES.!! This happened in Hyderabad [INDIA], recently!
The sport was conducted by
National Institute of Mental Health.
All these special girls had come to participate in this event
They were spastic children.
Yes, they were Mentally Challenged.

What did they teach the WORLD.?
Teamwork.
Humanity.
Equality among all.
Successful people help others who are
slow in learning
So that they are not left far behind.

THE DONKEY IN THE WELL

 

One day a farmer's donkey fell down into a well. The animal cried piteously for hours as the farmer tried to figure out what to do.yours too… Finally he decided since the animal was old, and the well needed to be covered up anyway, it just wasn't worth it to retrieve the donkey. So, the farmer invited all his neighbors to come over and help him. They all grabbed shovels, and began to shovel dirt into the well.

All the other farm animals were very upset about this, because the donkey was their friend. But they discovered there was nothing they could do to help him. At first, when the donkey realized what was happening, he cried horribly. Then, to everyone's amazement, he quieted down. A few shovel loads later, the farmer finally looked down the well, and was astonished at what he saw.

With every shovel of dirt that hit his back, the donkey was doing something amazing. He would shake it off, and take a step up on the dirt as it piled up. As the farmer's neighbors continued to shovel dirt on top of the animal, he would shake it off and take a step up. Pretty soon, everyone was amazed as the donkey stepped up over the edge of the well, and trotted off!

MORAL: Life is going to shovel dirt on you, all kinds of dirt. But each trouble can be a stepping stone. What happens to you isn't nearly as important as how you react to it. We can get out of the deepest wells just by not giving up!




Shake it off, and take a step up!

Some quotes of Mother Teresa

Everytime you smile at someone, it is an action of love, a gift to

that person, a beautiful thing.

Let us always meet each other with a smile, for the smile is the
beginning of love.


Let us touch the dying, the poor, the lonely and the unwanted according
to the graces we have received and let us not be ashamed or slow to
do the humble work.


It is easy to love the people far away. It is not always easy to
love those who are close to us. It is easier to give a cup of rice to relieve
hunger than to relieve the loneliness and pain of someone unloved
in our own home. Bring love into your home for this is where our
love for each other must start.

The most terrible poverty is loneliness and the feeling of being unloved.


We ourselves feel that what we are doing is just a drop in the ocean. But the ocean would be less because of that missing drop.

It is a kingly act to assist the fallen.

God saves us

Prophet Mohammad’s life is in danger. Information has reached him that people are out to kill him under cover of the night.
It is a dark hour. Mohammad leaves his home and the town of his birth; with him is his faithful friend and follower; Abu Bakr.

In hot pursuit of these two devoted servants of God are those who wish to kill Mohammad. They are so many; they are riding strong steeds and in their hands are drawn swords and sharp lances. Abu Bakr sees hem from a distance and feels nervous. In the agony of terror, he says to Mohammad, “They are coming; soon they will slay us with their sharp swords. And our bodies will lie on the desert sands to be devoured by wild beasts.”

Mohammad is silent; he speaks not a word. In his heart, he feels sure that God is with him and no harm can come his way. Nearby is a cave. Mohammad and Abu Bakr hide themselves in its depths. The party of persecutors halt at the mouth of the cave; their leader suspects that Mohammad has entered the cave. Abu Bakr begins to tremble and whispers to Mohammad, “What shall we do now? We are two and they are so many!”

Quietly answers Mohammad, “Not so, my friend, we are not two but three! The third is Allah. When He is near, we need not fear!”

A miracle has happened. Just after the two fugitives entered the cave and little before the party of persecutors arrived, a huge spider crawled to the entrance of the cave and wove its web across it. Seeing the web, some of the persecutors exclaim, “Mohammad could not have got into the cave. Don’t you see the spider’s web covering the entrance? Had anyone got in, the web would have been torn. Let us not waste precious time; let us move on!” Mohammad is saved!

Treatment for illness.

Illness is caused by the malnutrition of the mind than of body. Doctors speak of vitamin deficiency; I will call it the deficiency of 'Vitamin G' and I will recommend the repetition of the Name of God with accompanying contemplation of the glory and grace of God. That is the 'Vitamin G'. That is the medicine. Regulated life and habits are two-thirds of the treatment, while the medicine is only one-third.
