The World-Wide-Web
offers Knowlege beyond Imagination
Stop to smell the roses, as, A rose by any other name will smell as sweet...
Many a gem of purest rays serene, the dark unfathomed caves of ocean bear; Many a rose is born to blush unseen and waste its sweetness in the desert air.
Laughter, the Best Medicine, for all ailments
Tomato Story
A Jobless man applied for the position of "office boy" at Microsoft. The
HR manager interviewed him then watched him cleaning the floor as a
test. "You are employed" he said. "Give me your e-mail address and I'll
send you the application to fill in, as well as date when you may start.
The man replied "But I don't have a computer, neither an email". "I'm
sorry", said the HR manager. If you don't have an email, that means you
do not exist. And who doesn't exist, cannot have the job."
The man left with no hope at all. He didn't know what to do, with only
$10 in his pocket. He then decided to go to the supermarket and buy a
10Kg tomato crate. He then sold the tomatoes in a door to door round. In
less than two hours, he succeeded to double his capital. He repeated the
operation three times, and returned home with $60.
The man realized that he can survive by this way, and started to go
everyday earlier, and return late. Thus, his money doubled or tripled
everyday. Shortly, he bought a cart, then a truck, and then he had his
own fleet of delivery vehicles.
5 years later, the man is one of the biggest food retailers in the US .
He started to plan his family's future, and decided to have a life
insurance.He called an insurance broker, and chose a protection plan.
When the conversation was concluded the broker asked him his email. The man replied,"I don't have an email." The broker answered curiously, "You don't have an email, and yet have succeeded to build an empire. Can you imagine what you could have been if you had an e mail?" The man thought for a while and replied, "Yes, I'd be an office boy at Microsoft!"

This one's on the Value of Friendship!
Mouse Story
A mouse looked through the crack in the wall to see the farmer and his wife open a package. What food might this contain?"
The mouse wondered - he was devastated to discover it was a mousetrap. Retreating to the farmyard, the mouse proclaimed the warning. There is a mousetrap in the house! There is a mousetrap in the house!" The chicken clucked and scratched, raised her head and said, "Mr. Mouse, I can tell this is a grave concern to you, but it is of no consequence to me.I cannot be bothered by it."
The mouse turned to the pig and told him, "There is a mousetrap in the house! There is a mousetrap in the house!" The pig sympathized, but said, "I am so very sorry, Mr. Mouse, but there is nothing I can do about it but pray. Be assured you are in my prayers."
The mouse turned to the cow and said "There is a mousetrap in the house! There is a mousetrap in the house!" The cow said, "Wow, Mr.Mouse. I'm sorry for you, but it's no skin off my nose." So, the mouse returned to the house, head down and dejected, to face the farmer's mousetrap alone.
That very night a sound was heard throughout them house -- like
the sound of a mousetrap catching its prey. The farmer's wife rushed to see what was caught. In the darkness, she did not see it was a venomous snake whose tail the trap had caught. The snake bit the farmer's wife. The farmer rushed her to the hospital, and she returned home with a fever.
Everyone knows you treat a fever with fresh chicken soup, so the farmer took his hatchet to the farmyard for the soup's main ingredient. But his wife's sickness continued, so friends and neighbours came to sit with her around the clock. To feed them, the farmer butchered the pig.

The farmer's wife did not get well, she died. So many people came for her
funeral, the farmer had the cow slaughtered to provide enough meat for all of
them.
The mouse looked upon it all from his crack ! in the wall with
great sadness.

So, the next time you hear someone is facing a problem and think
it doesn't concern you, remember -- when one of us is threatened, we are all at risk.
We are all involved in this journey called life. We must keep an eye out for one another and make an extra effort to encourage one another.
One of the best things to hold onto in this world is a friend.
