Last night i have the opportunity to be the first to watch the latest movie originated from Singapore called ‘Money No enough 2′.Well being the long time admirer of the producer,i dragged myself to watch this movie,after all it is hard to find good Hokkien movie nowadays.Not surprisingly,again the movie director managed to convey the necessary messages that are intended to be conveyed to the audiences.A lot of laughing and at the same time,tears flowed.I hope those who have the time,go and watch this movie and we will appreciate each other more especially the our loved one after that:)
I have another short story to share with you guys.This is a short story that are also very meaningful that are meant to remind us to share and appreciate whatever we have now.This story is not from the movie that i mentioned earlier,only some good short stories that maybe some of you have found on the internet itself.
The story goes like this…………
Two men,both seriously ill,occupied the same hospital room.
One man was allowed to sit up in his bed for an hour each afternoonto help drain the fluid from his lungs.
His bed was next the the room’s only window.
The other man on the other hand had to spend all his life flat on his back.This both talked for hours ranging from their families and wives,their involvement in military services and other topics as well.
Every afternoon,when the man near the window could sit up,he would pass the time by describing to his roommate all the things he could see outside the window.
The man in the other bed began to live for those one hour periods where his world would be broadenedand enlivened by all the activity and colour of the world outside.
The window overlooked a park with a lovely lake.
Ducks and swans played on the water while children sailed their model boats.Young lovers walked arm in arm amidst flower of every colour.As the man by the window described all this in exquisite details,the man on the other side of the room would close his eyes and imagine this scenery.
On warm afternoon,the man by the window described a parade passing by.Although the other man could not hear the band,he could see it in his mind’s eye as the gentleman by the window potrayed it with descriptive words.
Days ,weeks and months passed until one day the nurse found out the man on the window have passed away peacefully in his sleep.Everyone was very sad and arranged for a proper sending off ceremony.
As soon as it seemed appropriate ,the other man applied to be transferred next to window and his wish was granted by the management.After the switch was done ,the nurse left the man alone.
Slowly ,painfully he propped up himself on one elbow to look outside the window.It faced the blank WALL!
When the nurse returned,the man asked the nurse what could have propelled his deceased roommate to described such wonderful things outside .The man responded by saying the man was blind could not even see the wall.She said ‘Perhaps he just wanted to encouraged you’
There is tremendous happiness in making
others happy, despite our own situations.
If you want to feel rich, just count all the
things you have that money can’t buy.
Shared grief is half the sorrow, but
happiness when shared, is doubled.
I am sure many of you have heard this story but i guess it is good to read this again and again so we will grow up to be a useful and wonderful person not only to our family but to the nation as well.Happier minds and souls after all generate more incomes .Take care all:)
