A Nice Story for You All.
One night there was a woman at the airport who had to
wait for several hours before catching her next
flight. While she waited she bought a book and a pack
of biscuits to spend the time. She looked for a place
to sit and waited.
She was deep into her book, when suddenly she realized
that there was a young man sitting next to her who was
stretching his hand, with no concern whatsoever, and
grabbing the pack of cookies lying between them. He
started to eat them one by one.
Not wanting to make a fuss about it she decided to
ignore him. The woman, slightly bothered, ate the
cookies and watched the clock, while the young and
shameless thief of biscuits was also finishing them.
The woman started to get really angry at this point
and thought "If I wasn't such a good and educated
person, I would have given this daring man a black eye
by now."
Every time she ate a biscuit, he had one too. The
dialogue between their eyes continued and when only
one biscuit was left, she wondered what was he going
to do. Softly and with a nervous smile, the young man
grabbed the last biscuit and broke it in two. He
offered one half to the woman while he ate the other
half.
Briskly she took the biscuit and thought, "What an
insolent man! How uneducated! He didn't even thank
me!" She had never met anybody so fresh and sighed
relieved to hear her flight announced. She grabbed
her bags and went towards the boarding gate refusing
to look back to where that insolent thief was seated.
After boarding the plane and nicely seated, she looked
for her book which was nearly finished by now. While
looking into her bag she was totally surprised to find
her pack of biscuits nearly intact. "If my biscuits
are here", she thought feeling terribly, "those others
were his and he tried to share them with me." Too late
to apologize to the young man, she realized with pain,
that it was her who had been insolent, uneducated and
a thief, and not him.
How many times in our lives, had we know with
certainty that something happened in a certain way,
only to discover later that it wasn't true?
How many times has our lack of trust within us made us
judge other people unfairly with our conceited ideas,
often far away from reality.
Friendship wanted from good friends in this group. Do write to me.
