A girl by name Joyce went to school in the neighboring village where she wasn't known well.

For three weeks, she came to school late and every time the teacher punished her.

On the fourth week, Joyce didn't attend school at all, and many thought she had GIVEN UP on school due to the everyday punishment.

However, Joyce reported again on fifth week, and this time she came earlier than everybody.

When the teacher came to class, Joyce was punished for not attending school the previous week, but the teacher was also kind enough to commend her for coming early that day, stating that the punishments had finally yielded some results.

Just then,  Joyce asked if she could say something and the teacher gave her permission.

She started :

"I've been raised up by a single mother without a brother or a sister. Five weeks ago, my mother fell ill and was hospitalized. The three weeks I came late, I had to prepare something for her every morning and pass by the hospital to deliver the same.

Unfortunately, mother passed away last week and that's the reason I didn't come to school.

We buried her last Friday. Today I came early since I didn't have to prepare anything, or even pass by the hospital.

And now that she is gone, I will always be here early''

As she sat down, no one in the whole class was able to hold their tears, the teacher was not spared either.

Lesson:

How many times do we judge others for things we know not?

We ask questions like:

- When will you get married?
- When will you have kids?
- When will you find a job?
-When will you buy a car?
-When will you build a house?
etc....

Do we attempt to understand their situations or we just judge from the case scenarios?

Some situations are not relative and what we think could be very far from the truth.

Don't assume you know what others go through or that people move in the same pace or direction as you

Life is far from that..

Just be kind enough to love one another as God has commanded,
 take time and kindly find out why your friend is not phoning,
why your messages are not being replied promptly,
why they haven't visited,
 why someone is missing in our midst as a colleague, friend, brother or sister,
why someone is always late etc

Be kind always.
Be nice to others.

A man died...

When he realized it, he saw God coming closer with a suitcase in his hand.

Dialog between God and Dead Man:

God: Alright son, it’s time to go

Man: So soon? I had a lot of plans...

God: I am sorry but, it’s time to go

Man: What do you have in that suitcase?

God: Your belongings

Man: My belongings? You mean my things... Clothes... money...

God; Those things were never yours, they belong to the Earth

Man: Is it my memories?

God: No. They belong to Time

Man: Is it my talent?

God: No. They belong to Circumstances

Man: Is it my friends and family?

God: No son. They belong to the Path you traveled

Man: Is it my wife and children?

God: No. they belong to your Heart

Man: Then it must be my body

God: No No... It belongs to Dust

Man: Then surely it must be my Soul!

God: You are sadly mistaken son. Your Soul belongs to me.

Man with tears in his eyes and full of fear took the suitcase from the God's hand and opened it...

Empty...

With heartbroken and tears down his cheek he asks God...

Man: I never owned anything?

God: That’s Right. You never owned anything.

Man: Then? What was mine?

God: your MOMENTS.
Every moment you lived was yours.

Do Good in every moment
Think Good in every moment
Thank God for every moment

Life is just a Moment.

Live it...
Love it...
Enjoy it......
