.A teacher teaching Maths to seven-year-old Laiq asked him,
“If I give you one apple and one apple and one apple,
how many apples will you have?”
Within a few seconds Laiq replied confidently, “Four!”
The dismayed teacher was expecting an... effortless correct answer, three. She was disappointed.
“Maybe the child did not listen properly.” – she thought.
She repeated, “Laiq, listen carefully. If I give you one apple and one apple and one apple,
how many apples will you have?”
Laiq had seen the disappointment on his teacher’s face.
He calculated again on his fingers.
But within him he was also searching for the answer that will make the teacher happy.
His search for the answer was not for the correct one,
but the one that will make his teacher happy.
This time hesitatingly he replied, “Four.”
The disappointment stayed on the teacher’s face.
She remembered that Laiq liked strawberries.
She thought maybe he doesn’t like apples and that is making him
loose focus.
This time with an exaggerated excitement and twinkling in her
eyes she asked, “If I give you one strawberry and one strawberry and one strawberry,
then how many you will have?”
Seeing the teacher happy, young Laiq calculated on his fingers again.
There was no pressure on him, but a little on the teacher.
She wanted her new approach to succeed.
With a hesitating smile young Laiq replied,
“Three?”
The teacher now had a victorious smile. Her approach had succeeded.
She wanted to congratulate herself.
But one last thing remained. Once again she asked him,
“Now if I give you one apple and one apple and one more apple how many will you have”
Promptly Laiq answered, “Four!”
The teacher was aghast. “How Laiq, how?”
she demanded in a little stern and irritated voice.
In a voice that was low and hesitating young Laiq replied,
“Because I already have one apple in my bag.”
"When someone gives you an answer that is different from what you expect,
don’t think they are wrong.
There shall be an angle that you may not have thought about yet."

Once upon a time
A very poor man lived with his wife. One day, his wife, who had very long hair asked him to buy her a comb for her hair to
grow well and to be well-groomed.
The man felt very sorry and said no. He explained that he did not even have enough money to fix the strap of his watch he had just broken.
She did not insist on her request.
The man went to work and passed by a watch s..
.hop, sold his damaged watch at a low price and went
to buy a comb for his wife.
He came home in the evening with the comb in his
hand ready to give to his wife.
He was surprised when he saw his wife with a very short hair cut. She had sold her hair and was holding a new watch band.
Tears flowed simultaneously from their eyes, not for the futility of their actions, but for the reciprocity of their love
.
Moral of the story: To love is nothing, to be loved is
something but to love and to be loved by the one you love,
that is everything

During the golden Abbasid period, one of the scholars in Baghdad, the capital of Muslim caliphate at that time,
was reputed to hold knowledge in high esteem.
One day an acquaintance met the great scholar and said,
"Do you know what I just heard about your friend?"
"Hold on a minute," the scholar replied.
"Before telling me anything I'd like you to pass a little test.
It's called the Triple Filter Test."
"?Triple filter"
"That's right," the scholar continued.
"Before you talk to me about my friend it might be a good idea to take a moment and filter what you're going to say.
That's why I call it the triple filter test.
The first filter is Truth. Have you made absolutely sure that what you are about to tell me is true"
"No," the man said, "actually I just heard about it and..."
"All right," said the scholar. "So you don't really know if it's true or not.
Now let's try the second filter, the filter of goodness.
?Is what you are about to tell me about my friend something good"
"No, on the contrary..."
"So,"the scholar continued, "you want to tell me something bad about him, but you're not certain it's true.
You may still pass the test though, because there's one filter left: the filter of usefulness.
Is what you want to tell me about my friend going to be useful to me?"
"No, not really."
"Well," concluded the scholar, "if what you want to tell me is neither true nor good nor even useful, why tell it to me at all"
"O ye who believe! Let not some men among you laugh at others:
It may be that the (latter) are better than the (former)" Hujurat 49.12
"And spy not on each other behind their backs..." (to end of surah) Hujurat 49.13

Thy Lord hath decreed that ye worship none but Him,
and that ye be kind to parents.
Whether one or both of them attain old age in thy life,
say not to them a word of contempt, nor repel them,
but address them in terms of honor. And out of kindness,
lower to them the wing of humility, and say:
‘My Lord! bestow on them Thy Mercy even as they cherished me in childhood’ “(17:23-24).

Two Places Are Most Valuable in This World.The Nicest Place to be is in Someone’s Thoughts and The Safest Place is to be in Someone’s Prayers
PHD graduate and an ordinary man went on a camping trip,
set up their tent and fell asleep.
Some hours later, the ordinary man woke up his friend:
”look up at the sky and tell me what you see?”
The PHD man replies:”I see millions of stars”
the ordinary man asks “what does that tell you?”
The PhD guy ponders for a minute: “astronomically speaking,
it tells me that their are millions of galaxies and potentially billions of planets.
Astrologically,it tells me that Satan’s in Leo.
Time wise,it appears to be approximately 03:15.
Theologically,
its evident the Lord is all-powerful and we are small
and insignificant. Meteorologic ally,
it seems we will have a beautiful day tomorrow.
?What does it tell you”
The ordinary man silents for a moment and speaks:
“Practically…… It tells me that….
”The tents been stolen!!”
^_^
Take away your protective layers ,and open your heart
to reveal your beautiful soul .
Through an open heart we can learn
the art of being humble, compassionate, joyful, peaceful,
creative, and loving

Free yourself from negative people.
Spend time with nice people who are smart,
driven and likeminded. Relationships should help you,
not hurt you. Surround yourself with people who
reflect the person you want to be.
Choose friends who you are proud to know, people you admire,
who love and respect you...
people who make your day a little brighter simply by
being in it.
Life is too short to spend time with people
who suck the happiness out of you.

Once upon a time a very strong woodcutter ask for a job in a timber merchant, and he got it.
The paid was really good and so were the work conditions.
For that reason, the woodcutter was determined to do his best.
His boss gave him an axe and showed him the
area where he was supposed to work.
The first day, the woodcutter brought 18 trees
"Congratulations," the boss said. "Go on that way!"
Ve...ry motivated for the boss’ words,
the woodcutter try harder the next day, but he only could bring 15 trees. The third day he try even harder, but he only could bring 10 trees.
Day after day he was bringing less and less trees.
"I must be losing my strength", the woodcutter thought.
He went to the boss and apologized, saying that he could not understand what was going on.
"?When was the last time you sharpened your axe"
the boss asked.
"?Sharpen
I had no time to sharpen my axe.
I have been very busy trying to cut trees..."
