These are 2 of my all time great stories,Pl feel free to agree or disagree

1)A woman came out of her house and saw 3 old men with long white beards sitting in her front yard. She did not recognize them. She said "I don't think I know you, but you must be hungry. Please come in and have something to eat."

"Is the man of the house home?", they asked.
No", she replied. "He's out."
"Then we cannot come in", they replied.
In the evening when her husband came home, she told him what had happened.
"Go tell them I am home and invite them in!" The woman went out and invited the men in"
"We do not go into a House together," they replied.

"Why is that?" she asked.
One of the old men explained: "His name is Wealth," he said pointing to one of his friends, and said pointing to another one, "He is Success, and I am Love." Then he added, "Now go in and discuss with your husband which one of us you want in your home."

The woman went in and told her husband what was said. Her husband was overjoyed. "How n ice!!", he said. "Since that is the case, let us invite Wealth. Let him come and fill our home with wealth!"

His wife disagreed. "My dear, why don't we invite Success?"

Their daughter-in-law was listening from the other corner of the house. She jumped in with her own suggestion: "Would it not be better to invite Love? Our home will then be filled with love"

"Let us heed our daughter-in-law's advice," said the husband to his wife.

"Go out and invite Love to be our guest."

The woman went out and asked the 3 old men, "Which one of you is Love? Please come in and be our guest

Love got up and started walking toward the house. The other 2 also got up and followed him. Surprised, t he lady asked Wealth and Success: "I only invited Love, Why are you coming in?"

The old men replied together: "If you had invited Wealth or Success, the other two of us would've stayed out, but since you invited Love, wherever He goes, we go with him. Wherever there is Love, there is also Wealth and Success!!!!!!"

-Where there is pain, I wish you peace and mercy.

-Where there is self-doubting, I wish you a renewed confidence in your ability to work through it.

-Where there is tiredness, or exhaustion, I wish you understanding, patience, and renewed strength.

-Where there is fear, I wish you love, and courage.

2)This story is courtesy the movie Daava featuring Akshay Kumar and Raveena Tandon realised in 1997(PS Fenil Its high time you reviewed this movie):-

Akshay Kumar tells a story:-
In a jungle there are 2 lions:-
a)The original lion and
b)The lamb who pretends to be the lion
Lion B went around telling the whole jungle that he was the lion of the jungle and everyone shd respect him.This worked for a few days and he thought he had everyone fooled but after a few days ,he was found dead.Why???????????
Look down.....................

A lion never says hes a lion,everyone KNOWS he is a lion and that gave him away.
In the same way ,people who are successful,happy or/and in love,never say they are.Everyone knows.And those who say they are ,are almost definitely the ones who arenot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(If not for anything else,watch Daava for this scene only by Akshay Kumar dear.Just joking!)

More to follow.........
