Roohaniyat: 7-17-10. A very good morning to all the listeners, and welcome to the world of Roohaniyat.
They say God made man in His own image. We all were meant to live our lives with Humanity: being the main religion of mankind. If we all analyze ourselves, how much of humanity do we really practice?
An old man was sitting with his 25-year-old son in a train. The train was about to leave the station all passengers were settling down in their seats.
As the train started, the young man was filled with lots of joy and curiosity. He was sitting on the window side.
He put out one hand and feeling the passing air, he shouted, "Dad, see all the trees are going behind". The old man smiled and admired his son's feelings.
Besides the young man was one couple, sitting and listening to all the conversation between the father and son. They felt a little awkward with the attitude of the 25 year old behaving like a small child.
Suddenly the young man shouted again, "Dad see the pond and the animals. The Clouds are moving with the train".
The couple was watching the young man embarrassingly. Then it started raining and some of the water drops touched the young man's hand. He was filled with joy and he closed his eyes and shouted again," Dad it's raining, the water is touching me, see Dad".
The couple couldn't help themselves and asked the old man. "Why don't you visit the Doctor and get treatment for your son."
The old man said," Yes, We are coming from the hospital; Today, my son got his eye sight for first time in his life".
They say: Be extra nice to everyone that you come across, because everyone is going through something in their lives. We are not put on this earth for ourselves, but are placed here for each other. If you are always there for others, then in time of need, someone will be there for you. Putting and thinking for others first will help us to be better human beings.
One day a passenger hopped in a taxi and they took off for the airport. They were driving in the right lane when suddenly a silver car jumped out of a parking space right in front of them. Their taxi driver slammed on his brakes, skidded, and missed the other car by just inches! The driver of the other car whipped his head around and started yelling at them.
The taxi driver just smiled and waved at the guy and was really friendly. So the passenger asked, "Why did you just do that? This guy almost ruined your car and sent us to the hospital!" This is when the taxi driver taught him what he now calls, 'The Law of the Garbage Truck.'
He explained that many people are like garbage trucks. They run around full of garbage, full of frustration, full of anger, and full of disappointment. As their garbage piles up, they need a place to dump it and sometimes they'll dump it on you. Don't take it personally. Just smile, wave, wish them well, and move on. Don't take their garbage and spread it to other people at work, at home, or on the streets...
The bottom line is that wise people do not let garbage trucks take over their day. Life's too short to wake up in the morning with regrets, so...Love the people who treat you right and Pray for the ones who don't because Life is ten percent what you make it and ninety percent how you take it!
Until next week, this is Preet Sahi, hoping that you have a blessed, garbage-free day!
