તમે જ માણસ બની જાવ ને...

ઉનાળાની બળબળતી બપોરે એક ભીખારી જેવો માણસ બજારમાં આમતેમ આંટા મારી રહ્યો હતો એને ખુબ જ તરસ લાગી હતી અને એ પાણી શોધી રહ્યો હતો પરંતુ તાપ એટલો બધો હતો કે બધા જ દુકાનદારો પોતાની દુકાન બંધ કરીને જતા રહ્યા હતા.

તરસથી વ્યાકુળ થયેલા પેલા માણસની નજર છેવાડાની એક દુકાન પર ગઇ. એ દુકાન ખુલ્લી હતી પેલો માણસ ઝડપથી એ દુકાન સુધી પહોંચ્યો ત્યાં જઇને જોયુ ત, દુકાનમાં બીજુ કોઇ તો નહોતું પરંતું શેઠ થડા પર બેઠા-બેઠા હિસાબ કરતા હતા.

ભીખારી જેવા આ માણસે પેલા શેઠને કહ્યુ , "શેઠ બહું તરસ લાગી છે થોડું પાણી પાશો ?"

શેઠે કહ્યુ , "માણસ બહાર ગયો છે થોડી વાર ઉભો રહે."

પેલો ભીખારી ત્યાં જ ઉભો રહ્યો.

10 મિનિટ જેવો સમય થયો એટલે ભીખારી એ ફરીથી કહ્યુ કે, "શેઠ થોડું પાણી આપોને ગળું સુકાય છે."

પેલા શેઠે કહ્યુ કે હજુ માણસ નથી આવ્યો આવે એટલે તને પાણી આપે.

વળી થોડો સમય પસાર થયો એટલે ફરી પેલા ભીખારીએ કહ્યુ, "શેઠ એક પ્યાલો જ પાણી આપોને, જીવ જાય છે હવે તો આ તરસને કારણે."

શેઠે ખીજાઇને કહ્યુ , "એલા તને કેટલી વાર કહેવું કે માણસ નથી એ આવે એટલે તને પાણી પાશે."
 ભીખારીએ શેઠની સામે જોઇને એટલું જ કહ્યુ, "શેઠ બસ થોડીવાર માટે તમે જ માણસ બની જાવ ને!"

---

સાલુ આપણું પણ આ શેઠ જેવું જ છે ! ડોકટર , વકીલ , એંજીનિયર , અધિકારી , કર્મચારી, ખેડુંત , ઉધોગપતિ તો રોજ હોઇએ છીએ ક્યારેક ક્યારેક માણસ પણ બની જોઇએ !

Thought for the day - 28/11/2017

  • Silence is a true friend who never betrays. ---Confucius
Silence works where nothing else works. It is our best friend because in the state of silence we can go very close to our self. When we reach close enough, we can find solutions to all the problems. That is why silence is very important in life. When you find yourself in deep-deep trouble try to go in the silent state, you will surely find the solution.

Thought for the day - 27/11/2017

  • Life is like riding a bike, to keep balance you must keep moving. ---Albert Einstein
  • Never discourage anyone who continually makes progress, no matter how slow. ---Plato
  • If you can run, run; if you can walk, walk; if you can crawl, crawl; but try to reach your destination. - Unknown
In life, we have to move on because there is no checkpoint, no setbacks; we only need to travel in a forward direction with all good and bad experiences. More important is, how we keep up the balance in life. If we are unable to help others, we should not be a hurdle for them by discouraging the work they are doing. Some people believe that timeliness is more important than quality other belief in reverse. However, both people are correct in their own way but they need not cross each others path.

Ant and Grasshopper - Indian Version of story

Original Story:
The Ant works hard in the withering heat all summer building its house and laying up supplies for the winter. The Grasshopper thinks the Ant is a fool and laughs dances plays the summer away. Come winter, the Ant is warm and well fed. The Grasshopper has no food or shelter so he dies out in the cold.

Indian Version:
The Ant works hard in the withering heat all summer building its house and laying up supplies for the winter. The Grasshopper thinks the Ant's a fool and laughs dances plays the summer away.

Come winter, the shivering Grasshopper calls a press conference and demands to know why the Ant should be allowed to be warm and well fed while others are cold and starving.

NDTV, BBC, CNN show up to give pictures of the shivering Grasshopper next to a video of the Ant in his comfortable home with a table filled with food.

The World is stunned by the sharp contrast. How can this be that this poor Grasshopper is allowed to suffer so?

Arundhati Roy stages a demonstration in front of the Ant's house.

Medha Patkar goes on a fast along with other Grasshoppers demanding that Grasshoppers be relocated to warmer climates during winter.

Mayawati states this as 'injustice' done on Minorities.

Amnesty International and Koffi Annan criticize the Indian Government for not upholding the fundamental rights of the Grasshopper.

The Internet is flooded with online petitions seeking support to the Grasshopper (many promising Heaven & Everlasting Peace for prompt support as against the wrath of God for non-compliance).

Opposition MPs stage a walkout. Left parties call for 'Bengal Bandh' in West Bengal and Kerala, demanding a Judicial Enquiry.

CPM in Kerala immediately passes a law preventing Ants from working hard in the heat so as to bring about equality of poverty among Ants and Grasshoppers.

Lalu Prasad allocates one free coach to Grasshoppers on all Indian Railway Trains, aptly named as the 'Grasshopper Rath'.

Finally, the Judicial Committee drafts the 'Prevention of Terrorism Against Grasshoppers Act'[POTAGA], with effect from the beginning of the winter.

Arjun Singh makes 'Special Reservation' for Grasshoppers in Educational Institutions in Government Services.

The Ant is fined for failing to comply with POTAGA and having nothing left to pay his retroactive taxes, it's home is confiscated by the Government and handed over to the Grasshopper in a ceremony covered by NDTV, BBC, CNN.

Arundhati Roy calls it 'A Triumph of Justice'.

Lalu calls it 'Socialistic Justice'.

CPM calls it the 'Revolutionary Resurgence of the Downtrodden'

Koffi Annan invites the Grasshopper to discuss the UN General Assembly.



Many years later...

The Ant has since migrated to the US and set up a multi-billion dollar company in Silicon Valley,
100s of Grasshoppers still die of starvation despite reservation somewhere in India,

....AND

As a result of losing a lot of hard working Ants and feeding the grasshoppers, India is still a developing country...!!

P.S. I have no idea whose creative mind this has come out from, but this piece is awesome.
