Priceless Stone

One day a Young Boy asked his father “what is the value of his life?”

Instead of answering, the father told his son to take this rock and go sell it at a market.

If anybody asks the price, raise two fingers and don’t say anything. 

The boy went to the market, and woman asked,” How much is this rock? I want to put it in my garden.” 

The boy didn’t say anything and raised up two fingers and woman said, “2 dollars? I’ll take it.” 

And boy went home and told his father, a woman wants to buy this rock for 2 dollars. 

The father then said, “Son, I want you to take this rock to a museum, if anybody wants to buy it don’t say a words and just put up two fingers.” 

The Boy then went to the museum and man wanted to buy the rock, the boy didn’t say a word and put up 2 fingers and man said, “ $200?  I’ll take it.” 

The boy was shocked and went running home and told his father, “Father a man wants to buy this rock for $200.” 

His father then said, “Son, the last place I want you to take this rock is to a precious stone store, show it to the owner and don’t say a word and if he asks the price just put up two fingers.”

The son went to precious stone store, he showed the rock to owner, “Where did you find this stone? It is one of the rarest stones in the word, I must have it! How much would you sell it for?”. The boy put up two fingers. And man said I’ll take it for $200,000.

The boy not knowing what to say, ran home to his father, “Father, There’s a man that wants to buy stone for $200,000!” 

His father then said, “Son, Do you know the value of your life now? You see it doesn’t matter where you come from, where you were born. The color of your skin or how much money you were born into. It matters where you decide to place yourself, the people you surround yourself with and how you choose to carry yourself. You may have lived your whole life thinking that you were a $2 stone. You may have lived your whole life surrounded by people that saw your worth for only $2. But everybody has a diamonds inside of them. And we can choose to surround our self with people that see our value and see the diamonds inside of us.  We can choose to put our self in a market or put our self in a precious stone store. And you can also choose to see the value in other people. You can help other people see the diamond inside of them. Choose the people you surround yourself with wisely. That can make all the difference in your life.

I received this message via WhatsApp Video, which is said by Sean Buranahiran. He gives very beautiful life message and I liked this. So I spread this by blog also. 

You can be surrounded by people that only see your value of 2 dollars or you can choose to be around people that see your value at $200,000. 

And some people… will see you as priceless…

New Year Blog

Hi Frnds!!

Happy New Year!!

Let’s start our new year with happiness and Positivity.

            I tell you one story.

  
           There was a girl who was studying in Std. 8. She was very shy by nature and rarely talks with others. She had very few friends and no one take her seriously. During her school time, there was a Computer’s Lecture. Teacher was teaching about “Menu” (Computer Menu List) in his own style. Meantime teaching, he ordered that Bashful Girl to stand up and ask her, “What is Menu? Do u heard “Menu” in any other place?” 

            That teacher trying to teach about to “Computer MENU” with the use phrase “Hotel Menu”. Then he asked that girls, “When you go Hotel, which thing is help you to order your food?”

            That girl was answered very innocently, “I am not going to hotel still”. After listening this, whole class is laughing at that girl. She felt so embarrassed because she can’t go hotel at least one time. She is not aware about Hotel Menu and also Computer Menu, because of her financial condition.

Time passed, after completing her schooling, she started worked in the Cyber Café. In her work place, she had grown up her typing speed, can write in three language with same speed, she can do any type of Job Work, Computer work. She can do it easily and effectively. After that she started teaching Computer and became very lovable teacher to her student. Every Student likes to teach with her. 

            Apart from this, she has developed her cooking skill too. She can cook Indian dishes very well. She posts her dishes on Instagram and her dishes are appreciated by so many Chef, Hotel Manager, Food Lover, and Nutrition in Instagram.  

            Friends, that Girl was not another one but she is me. Yes friends this is happened with me. 

            I am that Girl, who is not going to any hotel still Std. 8, but my recipes are loved by my family and friends and also appreciated in social media too.  

            I am that Girl, who was not aware about Computer Menu. But now I am working last 9 years and take very smart work with computer and of course my Boss was very happy with my work.

            Friends I am not Good Chef and Not a Very successful Programmer but I am satisfied. I beat that laugh, which are constantly pointed out me.

         

              After all who were laughed at me that time. There are the people who asked to me help them in their project work, there are the people who are still going to hotel because they don’t know how to make delicious food.

            Moral of the story is that, don’t find inspirational story in other life. Find it in your own life. You don’t know how strong you are. You also have enough material to inspired people.

            “I believe that sometimes the bad times in our life put us on a direct path to the very best time in our life.”
