A Great story to learn from

[Guest guest]

Dear All,

 

A man feared that his wife wasn't hearing as well as

she used to, and he thought she might need a hearing

aid. Not quite sure how to approach her, he called the

family Doctor to discuss the problem. The Doctor told

him there is a simple informal test the husband could

perform to give the Doctor a better idea about her

hearing loss.

Here's what you do, " said the Doctor, " stand about 40

feet away from her, and in a normal conversational

speaking tone see if she hears you. If not, go to 30

feet, then 20 feet, and so on until

you get a response. "

That evening, the wife is in the kitchen cooking

dinner, and he was in the den. He says to himself,

�I'm about 40 feet away, let's see what happens. "

Then in a normal tone he asks, 'Honey, what's for

dinner? "

No response.

So the husband moves to closer to the kitchen, about

30 feet from his wife and repeats, " Honey, what's for

dinner? "

Still no response.

Next he moves into the dining room where he is about

20 feet from his wife and asks, Honey, what's for

dinner? "

Again he gets no response so, He walks up to the

kitchen door, about 10 feet away.

" Honey, what's for dinner? " Again there is no

response.

So he walks right up behind her. " Honey, what's for

dinner? "

" James, for the FIFTH time I've said, PASTA! "

 

 

Dear friends, Simple humor of the life teaches us a

lot. This story tells a lot about how we respond in

life like

 

1) We tend to look to heal in others problems or

issues that are actually ours.

 

2) What concerns us in our minds, we try to project

onto others

 

3) Sometimes the best way to learn is to turn the mind

inwards rather than outwards - if one finds themselves

posing judgment on another or getting agitated by

another's actions, the simple test is to turn the

judgment/agitation inwards and see if it is actually

an internal conflict & most likely it is. Perhaps the

judgment on another is on the exact subject that we

lack in ourselves, therefore, the judgment is simply a

consequence of our own anger at oneself.

 

4) We believe that the entire world is going on in our

head, what occurs externally is just the final movie

that everyone gets to watch. Yet, what goes on inside

includes the cast, the characters, their

relationships, the conflicts, the living out of every

single scene and the decisions which we take ( In Life

) finally makes the movie worth or not worth watching.
