Everything Happens For The Good


There was once a King who had a wise advisor. The advisor followed the King everywhere, and his favorite advice was, “Everything happens for the good”. One day the King went hunting and had a little accident. He shot an arrow at his own foot and was injured. He asked the advisor what he thought about the accident, to which the advisor replied, “Everything happens for the good”. This time the King was really upset and ordered for his advisor to be put in prison. The King asked his advisor, “Now, what do you think?” The advisor again replied, “Everything happens for the good”. So the advisor remained in prison.

The King later went on a hunting trip, this time without the advisor. The King was then captured by some cannibals. He was taken to the cannibals' camp where he was to be the evening meal for the cannibals. Before putting him into the cooking pot he was thoroughly inspected. The cannibals saw the wound on the King’s foot and decided to throw him back into the jungle. According to the cannibals' tradition, they would not eat anything that was imperfect. As a result the King was spared. The King suddenly realized what his advisor said was true. The advisor also escaped death because had he not been in prison, he would have followed the King on the hunting trip, and would have ended up in the cooking pot.

THE POWER OF IMAGINATION




Two Men, both seriously ill, Occupied the same hospital room, One man was allowed to sit up in his bed for an hour each afternoon to help drain the fluid from his lungs. His bed was next to the room's window.




The other man had to spend all his time flat on his back. The men talked for hours on end.They spoke of their wives and families, their homes, their jobs, their involvment in the millitary Service, where they had been on vacation. And every afernoon when the man in the bed by the window could sit up, he would pass the time by describing to his roommate all the things he could see out side the window.



The man in the other bed began to live for those one-hour periods where his world would be broadened and enlivened by all the activity and color of the world outside.
the window over looked a park with a lovely lake. Ducks and Swans played on the water while boats. Young lovers walked arm amidst flowers of every color of the rainbow. Grand old trees graced the landscrape, and a fine view of the city skyline could be seen in the distance.



As the man by the window described all this in exquisite detail, The man on the other side of the room would close his eyes and imagine the picturesque scene. One warm afthernoon the man by the window described a parade passing by, Athough the other man couldnit hear the band he could see it in his mind's eyes as the gentleman by the window portrayed it with descriptive words. Days and weeks passed.



One morning the day nurse arrived to bring water for their baths only to discover to find the lifeless body of the man by the window, Who had died peacefully in his sleep. She was saddened and called the hospital attendants to take the body away. As soon as it seemed appropriate, the other man asked if he could be moved next to the window. The nurse was happy to make the switch, and after making sure he was comfortable, She left him alone Slowly, Painfully, He dropped himself up on one elbow to take his First look at the world outside.



Finally, he would have the joy of seeing it for himself. He strained to slowly turn to look out the window beside the bed. It faced a blank wall. The man asked the nurse what could have compelled his deceased roommate who had described such wonderful things outside this window. the nurse responed that the man was blind and could not even see the wall.
She said

Foster & Mathew


Foster and Matt where leaping trough a swampy marshland when suddenly they tumbled into a deep dry ravine just at the end of the mush.

Afther recovering from he shock of the falling, they tried to leap out of the hole.But try as hard as they could not propel themselfs out of the hole.


Soon , Other frogs heard of the two frogs that were trapped in the ravine.The other frogs gathered arround the gulley in great numbers, urging the young frogs to jump out to safty.With every great attempt the crowed yelled in approval and urging them to try harder. afther a while, with foster and matt were cleally exhausted, the gathering of forgs brought in experts who analysed the situation, plotting graphs on the strenght of the their limbs, the depth and size of the hole and the age of the Foster and Matt, they concluded that ut was imposible for them to get out of the Ditch..... Ever! the poor victims of circumstance sould conserve their strenght and wait it out until they Die.


The heard of the team of expert stood on the edge of the gulley and gave a passionate speech about how this was the end of the them. Foster looked on confused, as Matthew lay down looking exhausted.THe crowed turned teir backs and shook their head in sorrow as they began to disperse slowly.then suddenly seeing that the other frogs were leaving, Foster strted jumping again.the frogs tured around, surprised, as Foster continued to jump, they became agitated,shouting him down, telling him to conserve his strenght that it was no use trying, he can't get out; it was never been done;it will never be done, But Foster kept on jumping, The louder they screamed at him, the more he jumped.

As his jumbs became more frantic, loose earth beagn to drift down until it covered matthew, then foster had to jump on top of matthew to stay up and keep on the exercise, suddenly he jumps high and out of the pit.


The other frogs became amazed of foster result.then they wanted to know what gave him the strenght, so he was handed the Mic to speak, but all they heard from him was blee!!! bleee!!! bleee!!!,

That was how deff and doom speaks..... they were now more amazed that foster was deff and doom, which means he did not hear all that the experts was saying about the end of their Life in the Pit.....


Lesson of the Story "HE GAVE NOT ALL EARS TO EXPERTS ADVISE ABOUT HIS CONDITION"
