One day, Death encountered a man and told him :
- Today's your last day.
The man replied :
- But I am not ready!
Death said :
- Your name is at the top of my to-do list for today.
The man said :
- Alright then....before you take me along, let's sit together and have one last cup of coffee.
Death said :
- Of course.
The man offered a cup of coffee to Death, the coffee was laced with some sleeping pills......
Death drank the coffee and soon was fast asleep...
The man took Death's to-do list, wiped his name from the top and placed it at the bottom of the page.
When Death woke up, it said :
- You've treated me so kindly and with full of love today. I would like to reciprocate you by starting my today's work from the names at the bottom of my list.
Sometimes some things are written in your fate. No matter how hard you try to change them, they never change.....
The crow and the parrot were both created ugly. The parrot protested and was made beautiful. However, the crow remained content with the will of its Creator. Today the parrot is in a cage and the crow flies free......
Before each incident is so exquisite a wisdom that maybe you will never understand it.
Therefore.....Never ask "Why?" to the Creator.
Tailpiece.
Got up half an hour late. Went through the chores and were ready on time. Saw the live telecast of the Republic day parade on the Rajpath at New Delhi - a habit that has grown over the years. Have always felt nice after seeing that and this time was no exception!
Saw the matinee show of Mammootty's 'Shylock' - a highly watchable film and Mammootty is good. During the interval, I'd to pull up a young couple to sit forward and straighten the backrests of their seats to allow me to pass through to get back to my seat. Much to my horror, I saw the others having a tough time to squeeze through the narrow space. As I was passing them, I'd to tell them this, "It's good manners to straighten up and allow the others to pass by".
They avoided crossing my path subsequently, once the movie got over. Uncouth people!
