6 LESSONS FROM THE HAPPIEST MAN ON EARTH BY EDDIE JAKU

1. There are many things more precious than money

It is easy to be enslaved by the mindset that money is the most imperative treasure in society. Money is always transient, just like most things in life. It comes and goes, but how much are you willing to pay for the fleeting pleasure? The consequences of a money-mentality are much more damaging than the value of money itself. Are you willing to put your mental, emotional, and physical well-being on the line? There are things more precious than money. Here are a few:
-Experiences
-Genuine connections
-A feeling of purpose
-Genuine concern for helping others
-Eddie says, “there are many things in this world that no amount of money will buy you, and some things are priceless beyond measure.”

2. Weakness can be turned into hatred

Weak people lack the ability to maintain any level of emotional intelligence. People who lack emotional intelligence and a strong sense of self are easily influenced to hate. Their values and convictions are not based on strong foundations; rather, they are proponents of radical causes. Hatred is a disease that consumes the human mind to the point of no return, causing significant harm to oneself and others.

“If enough people had stood up then come on Kristallnacht, and said, ‘enough what are you doing? What is wrong with you?’ then the course of history would have been different. but they did not. they were scared they were weak, and their weakness allowed them to be manipulated into hatred ” — Eddie Jaku

3. Tomorrow will come if you survive. one step at a time

The majority of people give up because they feel the suffering will never end. They relinquish control because their vision is clouded by minor inconveniences rather than the bigger picture.

“The closer you get to something, the blurrier it gets,” as the saying goes. Be well-rounded, logical, and foresighted. Nothing on it has the word “forever” written on it.

4. You can find kindness everywhere, even from strangers

If you take a step out of your own world for even a moment, you will notice that you are not alone. The most serious problem is that we cannot talk freely about ourselves, our lives, and our issues. You are not alone in the universe. There are people who would happily assist you if you were willing to be vulnerable.

5. One good friend

“The greatest thing you will ever do is be loved by another person” — repeat this sentence until you realise that love and friendship are the best medicine.

I cannot emphasise this enough, especially to young people. Without friendship, a human being is lost. A friend is someone who reminds you to feel alive.

6. Education is a lifesaver

I do not mean formal education when I use the word “education”. Yes, formal education is fantastic and brings great opportunities, but life education is much more critical. Understanding the laws of human nature, being mindful of worldviews, and knowing how to connect so that your voice is heard are all examples of life education. To be self-sufficient and not depend on others for a good life.

You may not be able to change the world because it is beyond your power, but you can change yourself. Change is possible, despite what you can believe, but it requires a lot of discipline.

It happened at a New York Airport. This is hilarious. I wish I had the guts of this girl. An award should go to the United

Airlines gate agent in New York for being smart and funny, while making her point, when confronted with a passenger who probably

deserved to fly as cargo. For all of you out there who have had to

deal with an irate customer, this one is for you.

A crowded United Airlines flight was canceled. A single agent was re-booking a long line of inconvenienced travelers.

Suddenly, an angry passenger pushed his way to the desk. He slapped his ticket on the counter and said, "I HAVE to be on this flight and it has to be FIRST CLASS."

The agent replied, "I'm sorry, sir. I'll be happy to try to help you, but I've got to help these folks first; and then I'm sure we'll be able to work something out."

The passenger was unimpressed. He asked loudly, so that

the passengers behind him could hear, "DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA WHO I AM?"

Without hesitating, the agent smiled and grabbed her public address microphone. "May I have your attention, please?", she began, her voice heard clearly throughout the terminal. "We have a passenger here at Gate 14 WHO DOES NOT KNOW WHO HE IS. If anyone can help him with his identity, please come to Gate 14".

With the folks behind him in line laughing hysterically,

the man glared at the United Airlines agent, gritted his teeth, and said, "F*** You!"

Without flinching, she smiled and said, "I'm sorry sir,

you'll have to get in line for that, too."

Life isn't about how to survive the storm, but how to dance in the rain.

Who is the most evil man in human history? What evil did he do? Where did he make his evil?


Idi Amin, often called the "Butcher of Uganda," ruled the East African nation from 1971 to 1979 with a reign of terror that left an indelible mark on the country's history. Born around 1925 in Koboko, Amin's rise from a cook in the British colonial army to a feared dictator is a story of ambition, brutality, and unrestrained power. His military coup in 1971 ousted President Milton Obote and was initially welcomed by many Ugandans, but the euphoria quickly turned to horror.


Amin's regime was notorious for its brutality, with an estimated 300,000 Ugandans killed during his rule. Political opponents, ethnic minorities, intellectuals, and ordinary citizens all fell victim to his purges. The notorious State Research Bureau, Amin's secret police, carried out widespread torture and executions. Public executions and mass graves became terrifyingly common, instilling fear and suspicion across the nation.

One of Amin's most infamous acts was the 1972 expulsion of approximately 60,000 Asians from Uganda, primarily those of Indian descent. Given only 90 days to leave the country, their properties were confiscated, leading to economic collapse as the country lost its key business community. Amin's unpredictable and erratic behavior further isolated Uganda internationally, with bizarre actions such as declaring himself "President for Life" and challenging superpowers like the United States.


Amin's downfall came in 1978 when he ordered an ill-fated invasion of Tanzania. The Tanzanian army, alongside Ugandan exiles, launched a counterattack, capturing Kampala in April 1979 and forcing Amin into exile. He fled to Libya and eventually settled in Saudi Arabia, where he lived until his death in 2003. Amin's legacy is a chilling reminder of the destructive potential of unchecked power and the devastating impact of tyranny on a nation's soul.

John D. Rockefeller was the welthiest American of all time and was once among the richest man in the world. By age 25, he controlled one of the largest oil refineries in the US. By age 31, he had become the world’s largest oil refiner. By age 38, he commanded 90% of the oil refined in the U.S.

By 50, he was the richest man in the country. As a young man, every decision, attitude, and relationship was tailored to create his personal power and wealth.

But at the age of 53, he became ill. His entire body became racked with pain and he lost all of his hair. In complete agony, the billionaire who could buy anything he wanted, but he could only digest soup and crackers. An associate wrote, He could not sleep, would not smile and nothing in life meant anything to him. His personal, highly skilled physicians predicted he would die within a year.

As he approached death he awoke one morning with the vague realization of not being able to take any of his wealth with him into the next world. The man who could control the business world suddenly realized he was not in control of his own life. He was left with a choice.

So, he called his attorneys, accountants, and managers and announced that he wanted to channel his Assets to Hospitals, Research, and Charity work. John D. Rockefeller established his Foundation.

This new direction eventually led to the discovery of Penicillin, cures for Malaria, Tuberculosis and Diphtheria.

But perhaps the most amazing part of Rockefeller’s story is that the moment he began to give back a portion of all that he had earned, his body’s chemistry was altered so significantly that he got better. It looked as if he would die at 53 but he lived until 98 yrs. old.

Rockefeller discovered the power of gratitude and philanthropy, giving away the majority of his wealth. This act not only healed him but also made him whole. The happiness he felt in sharing his blessings is one thing that healed him.

In his later years, he reflected in his diary:

“God taught me that everything belongs to Him, and I am merely a channel to fulfill His wishes. My life has been a long, happy journey, full of work and play. I let go of worry, and God was good to me every day.”

YOUNG MEN LET ME BE HONEST WITH YOU TODAY.
You see that girl you are dating now, she has a higher chance of making it in life faster than you.
This is why you shouldn't spend all your youthfulness building relationship with a woman.

The truth is she can easily walk out of that relationship and go ahead and marry an already made man, a man who has figured his life out, who has money and enough resources and on the strength of her marriage with the already made man she has made it in life.
Whereas, you as a man is own your own, nobody is coming to save you, nobody cares about you, people don't even love you until you have value.

You see why investing all your youthfulness with a woman can be very dangerous and unhealthy for your future.

Women has more leverage early in life than man, like this like this, she's already winning you, the world is more fair to her than you and this is why you need to focus more on your purpose than you are focusing on her.
If you fail to make it in life, you will suffer in her hand, she will finally dump you for another man who didn't fail to make it.

Forget all those romantic bullishit she use to assure you " that she will be with you forever" its a lie, when jungle mature she will disappear.

The truth is most women are just managing your brokeness because they don't have a better option yet the moment a better option present itself she will abandon you and forget all your sacrifices and all her words, women knows nothing like loyalty.

This is why as a young man, you don't have to spend all your time focusing and chasing women up and down, women are big distraction to a man who is not purpose driven.

They will drain you and leave you.
Hustle for yourself, take your life more serious, read books, learn skills, develop and harness your masculine power, be more focus on becoming a better man, invest in your mind at the end of this is the only thing that will never leave you through thick and thin.

Steve Jobs, billionaire, in his last days before he died at 56 thought of these:

- After all, wealth is just a life experience I've had the opportunity to know. At this moment, as I lay sick in bed reminiscing my entire life, I realize that all the recognition and wealth I achieved are insignificant and lack higher meaning in the face of impending death...

So,

take my advice and be courteous and considerate of others. As we get older, we become smarter and we gradually realize that a $30 watch and a $300 watch show the same time...

Whether we wear $30 or $300 purses, the same amount of money can fit in both..

Whether we drive a $150,000 car or a $30,000 car, the journey and the distance are the same, we always reach the same destination

ONE MISTAKE EVERY MAN MUST AVOID.

1. Do not build your life around a woman.

That's the greatest mistake a man can ever make in his life, you loose your relevance, authority, leadership delegation on a woman once you start building your life around a woman.

Relationship or marriage is meant for the woman to build her life around a man and not the other way round.

You loose everything as a man if you start that project of building your life around a woman.

Don't mistake foolishness for love.

No woman, I repeat, not even your mother deserve such power, do not give any woman that power at all.

A woman should not be the source of your strength, peace, love, happiness and joy.

Rather Outsource it from your God, yourself and your purpose. That's the primary design, then your woman own is secondary.

If you allow a woman dictate how you live and how you feel and how you react to things then your life is totally ruin.

A man must be 89% independent of his woman's help, superior in everything aside adopting a feminine frame.

Don't give any woman such power all in the name of love.

Don't sell your throne all for puccy, be the king and rule purposely.

Let your woman build her life around you while you build your life around God, your standard and purpose that's the most healthy way to be in a relationship and marriage.

Be wise.

Confident people do not let that stop them. They know that avoiding fear suffocates personal growth and creates unnecessary anxiety.

Truly confident people have learned that the only way to improve their lives, and to change things for the better, is to actively take control of their lives and make things happen.
Confident people make it clear with their words and their actions what is going on, where you stand with them, and what they plan or desire.

Confident people understand that if they say yes to everything and everyone, they are not being true to themselves and their own goals.
Confident people have learned resilience, and how to keep going when the going gets tough.
Truly confident people don’t waste time on chastising themselves for their mistakes.
Confident people know that one of the best ways to learn more about a subject, or understand someone better, is to listen more.
Confident people know that they don’t have all the answers, no-one does, and they are not afraid to admit this.

Confident people create actionable plans in order to achieve their long term goals. They don’t put it off until next week until they feel less rushed, they don’t wait for the right moment.

The truth is, opportunities are all around us, and confident people take advantage of those opportunities, not because they think they will do great at it, but because they know it’s a great stepping stone to something else. Their confidence comes not from their ability to complete a task, but their belief that they have the mental resilience to learn as they go, in order to complete the task.

A Maasai man walked into a bank in Nairobi to ask for a loan. He told the clerk that he was going to Dubai on business for four weeks and needed to borrow $45.

The loan officer replied that although it is a small loan, the bank will need collateral to disburse it. So the Masai gentleman gave him the keys to a brand new Mercedes Benz S 500, parked on the street in front of the bank.

The Masai showed the vehicle documents and everything was correct. So the loan officer accepted the car as collateral.

The bank manager and his associates mocked the Masai customer for using a Mercedes Benz worth $133,000 as collateral for a $45 loan.

A bank employee then parked the Mercedes Benz in the bank's underground car park. Four weeks later, the Masai gentleman returned to the bank and repaid the $45 loan plus 1 euro and 50 cents in interest.

The agent then said, "Sir, we were very happy to have dealt with you. This transaction went very well but we are a little perplexed. While you were gone, we looked at your file and found that you he's a multimillionaire, so we wondered why he needed to borrow $45?”

The Maasai replied: “Where else in Nairobi could I park my car for four weeks for just $1.30 and expect it to be there when I return?

SOMEONE YOU TAKE FOR IGNORANT MAY SOMETIMES BE SMARTER THAN YOU. ALWAYS CULTIVATE MODESTY AND HUMILITY.

Be the Best that You Can Be

There was an old carpenter who was going to retire, and because his boss could not bear to let him go, he asked the old carpenter to build a house before he leaves. Although the old carpenter agreed, his heart was already not on his job – he used lousy materials, and the house he built was one of his worst projects. When the house was ready, the boss told him that it was his parting gift to him. The old carpenter was saddened and ashamed to learn that the house he built was actually for himself.

Morale of the story: Everything we do in life, we are actually doing it for ourselves, so we must make sure we do the best we can.

The terms "motherland" and "fatherland" are often used interchangeably to refer to one's homeland or native country. However, there can be subtle differences in their connotations.

"Motherland" can evoke a sense of nurturing and protection, emphasizing the country as a source of comfort, support, and belonging. It may be used in a more sentimental or emotional way, reflecting a deep connection to one's homeland.

On the other hand, "fatherland" may carry more of a sense of strength, authority, and patriotism. It can be associated with ideas of duty, sacrifice, and loyalty to one's country.

Overall, the choice between "motherland" and "fatherland" may be influenced by cultural, historical, or personal factors, but they generally convey similar meanings of national identity and allegiance.

GREAT LESSON OF THE DAY👌

In 1990, Shina Peters built a house with N20 million naira; the same year Jim Ovia started Zenith Bank (in Nigeria) with the same amount.

Today, you and I don't have a room in Shina's house but I have an account in Jim's bank and probably you do too.

Shina's house was built in Iju Lagos and remains there till date.

Jim's bank started in a corner and now has over 500 branches in Nigeria, and many international branches.

Millions upon millions transact business in Jim's bank daily.

Shina's house is becoming dilapidated...in 2015, he SPENT more money to renovate the house and bought a Nissan Pathfinder with N10 million...additional liability, while in the same 2015, Jim's bank MADE a profit of N105.7 billion.

Zenith Bank employs hundreds of thousands, and feeds their families.

This is the difference between Assets and Liability. If you buy a car for N20 million today, in 20 years time, you will be ashamed to drive it.

On the other hand, if you invest that same amount in a lucrative business or in an asset, it may be worth billions in 20 years. ( Jim Ovia is now worth $980 million dollars, with the official dollar rate of N320, that means he is worth N313 BILLION NAIRA because of an investment of N20 million).

Spend the little money you have today wisely. Some people driving expensive cars today, are not aware that they are driving their future and the future of their children.

Some people carrying iPhone 12 today, may not be aware that they are carrying their future.
When you are young, don't spend money. Invest it.

Every penny in your hand is like a seed, you can decide to eat it, or sow it. When you sow it, it will bear much more seeds later in future.

THINK TWICE AND SPEND WISELY 👌

STAY BLESSED 🙏❤️

25. By age 25, you should be smart enough to:
→Celebrate the success of others

→Avoid assumptions
→Act with intention
→Practice gratitude
→Speak honestly

" One day a rich man gave a basket full of rotten food to a poor man.
The poor man smiled and left the palace with the basket, ....emptied the basket of it's content and cleaned it,
Put beautiful flowers in it and returned it to the palace and gave it to the rich man.
The rich man was surprised and asked the poor man, "Why "?
" I gave you a basket full of rotten things and you bring it back filled with beautiful flowers. "
The poor man replied the king:
" Every human being gives what is in his heart. "
What is inside you is what you give out. Be kind always.
You don't need to first become rich to be kind, kindness is free! Whether rich or poor ... all can be kind, what you only need is ...
" A RICH HEART "!
Kindness matters.....

Once upon a time in a small town, there lived a young woman named Sarah. Sarah was known for her beauty and kindness, but she was also known for her determination to stay true to her values and morals.

One day, Sarah was approached by a charming young man named Jack. Jack was smooth-talking and charismatic, and he quickly caught Sarah's attention. He invited her out on a date, and despite feeling a strong attraction to him, Sarah hesitated. She knew that Jack had a reputation for being a player and engaging in illicit activities.

Despite her doubts, Sarah agreed to go out with Jack. As the night went on, Jack's behavior became more and more aggressive. He made inappropriate comments and tried to pressure Sarah into engaging in sexual activities. Sarah knew that this was not what she wanted, and she firmly told Jack to stop.

Angry and frustrated, Jack tried to manipulate Sarah into giving in to his demands. But Sarah stood her ground, refusing to be swayed by his sweet words and promises. In the end, Jack stormed off in a fit of rage, leaving Sarah feeling relieved and proud of herself for sticking to her principles.

From that day on, Sarah made a vow to never again succumb to the pressures of illicit sex. She focused on building strong and healthy relationships based on mutual respect and understanding. And as time went on, Sarah found true happiness and fulfillment in her decision to say no to illicit sex.

The moral of the story is clear: it is important to stand up for what you believe in and say no to anything that goes against your values and morals. Illicit sex may seem tempting, but ultimately, it can lead to regret, heartache, and even danger. So, let Sarah's story be a reminder to everyone to always choose the path of integrity and self-respect. Say no to illicit sex, and say yes to a life filled with happiness and fulfillment.

A man was asked to paint a boat. He brought his paint and brushes and began to paint the boat a bright red, as the owner asked him.

While painting, he noticed a small hole in the hull, and quietly repaired it.

When he finished painting, he received his money and left.

The next day, the owner of the boat came to the painter and presented him with a nice check, much higher than the payment for painting.

The painter was surprised and said “You've already paid me for painting the boat Sir!”

“But this is not for the paint job. It's for repairing the hole in the boat.”

“Ah! But it was such a small service... certainly it's not worth paying me such a high amount for something so insignificant.”

“My dear friend, you do not understand. Let me tell you what happened:

“When I asked you to paint the boat, I forgot to mention the hole.

“When the boat dried, my kids took the boat and went on a fishing trip.

“They did not know that there was a hole. I was not at home at that time.

“When I returned and noticed they had taken the boat, I was desperate because I remembered that the boat had a hole.

“Imagine my relief and joy when I saw them returning from fishing.

“Then, I examined the boat and found that you had repaired the hole!

“You see, now, what you did? You saved the life of my children! I do not have enough money to pay your 'small' good deed.”

So no matter who, when or how, continue to help, sustain, wipe tears, listen attentively, and carefully repair all the 'leaks' you find. You never know when one is in need of us, or when God holds a pleasant surprise for us to be helpful and important to someone.

Along the way, you may have repaired numerous 'boat holes' for several people without realizing how many lives you've save. ❤️

Make a difference.

A man leaves his house situated near a lake. Although not familiar with the lake, the wife decides to take the boat out, since it is such a beautiful day. She motors out a short distance, anchors, and reads her book.

Along comes a Game Warden in his boat. He pulls up alongside the woman and says," Good morning, Ma'am, what are you doing"?

"Reading a book," she replies, (thinking, "Isn't that obvious"?)

"You're in a Restricted Fishing Area," he informs her.

"I'm sorry, officer, but I'm not fishing, I'm reading."

"Yes, but you have all the equipment. I'll have to write you up a ticket."

"For reading a book"? she replies.

"You're in a Restricted Fishing Area," he informs her again.

"But officer, I'm not fishing, I'm reading."

"Yes, but you have all the equipment. For all I know you could start at any moment. I'll have to write you up a ticket and you'll have to pay a fine."

"If you do that, I'll have to charge you with sexual assault," says the woman.

"But I haven't even touched you," says the Game Warden.

"That's true, but you have all the equipment. For all I know you could start at any moment."

"Have a nice day ma'am," and he immediately departed.

MORAL: Never argue with a woman who reads. It's likely she can also think.

Sure, God created man before woman. But then you always make a rough draft before the final masterpiece!!”

It's possible for any man to ask for sёx in a relationship, but is left for you as a lady to know that sёx, can't keep him..(Sёx isn't enough)

There are two major factors ladies complain about sёx in a relationship:

(1) After giving him my body he left me..

(2)He left because I refused to have sёx with him..

NOTE: Both those who gave and those who refused to give are complaining...

( Whats the difference)

Ladies Listen, Sёx isn't enough, its not the only thing you can offer a man.

If You Don't Have Anything To Offer A Man Outside Sёx, Please remain Single...

A man can't stay with you because his having sёx with you....

Relationship is not buying and selling.

There are much to life than Monkey style, Doggy style, Missionary style, Apple n juice style, step pillows style, etc ...

Are you sound intellectually? Spiritually? Physically? Mentally? Emotionally?

Men love intelligent ladies...

Men love ladies with ideas..

Men love respectful ladies...

Men respect ladies that know what domestic work is

Men love and appreciate a woman who is good and excellent in multi-tasking

Men respect and honor ladies that wakes up very early in the morning to make sure that the kitchen is set.

Men respect ladies that keep their eyes at home than those that their eyes are always outside

Men love bravo ladies

Sёx is very cheap these days, anybody can buy it.

You need to build yourself beyond sёx.

Leave make-ups and be a productive lady.

Men are looking for ladies with ideas and solution not those who paint their faces with different colours.

*What some man wants is beauty with brain not make ups with boobs or hips. Because all these will fail but what you have upstairs will remain.

Your husband complains because you think that you know it but you don't know it. Just do what your own husband wants and not what men want. Hope it help our generations

Mike Tyson - Fact of Life :
"I had my oldest son who was 16 telling me he wanted to become a professional boxer. But stop there, you're stup!d, you went to a private school! You can't be a boxer, you've taken trips to Europe, you've been around the world. You can't be a fighter with that. You want to fight guys like me? Animals? I don't want my kids to go through that, it's degrading.

Boxing, you do it when you have nothing. It's a lot of sacrifices, pain, suffering. I took the blows so that my children wouldn't have to do it. When I look at them, I see middle-class children, who went to school, who do what they want. Boxing means wanting to be the best, to dominate everyone.

Some of the Lessons I’ve Learned in Life


1. A good laugh or cry always makes you feel better.



I don’t know why it is, but letting go of emotions always makes me feel a sense of relief. There is nothing better than laughing out loud with friends or family, even if it is laughing at the most ridiculous things.



On the other hand, a good cry through whatever adverse situation you are going through also releases the built up emotions that have been bottled up inside. I always feel a sense of calm after facing situations and dealing with the emotions, good or bad, that go with them.



2. We are all going to fail at some point. Don't miss the lesson the failure is meant to teach you.



It’s inevitable, we all fail sometimes. What is important about the failure is how you deal with it. It takes a while to learn to take a step back from a failure and ask yourself: “What am I supposed to learn from this?”



Maybe the answer is as simple as learning to pick yourself up and start over. Maybe it's an opportunity to give you a reason to try harder. Whatever the lesson may be, it is there to help shape us and mold us into the person we are meant to be. When you view failure as a positive experience, you will decrease the negative feelings that failure can bring.



3. Not everyone will like you, and that's OK!



This was a hard lesson for me to learn because I have always looked at myself as a “likable” person. I always try to be friendly and welcoming, but that doesn't always equate to being liked. It’s hard to accept that there are just some people who do not like me, for whatever reason.



As I get older, I realize that whoever these people are, they have their reasons for the way they feel and they are free to feel that way. As long as I know that I do my best keep my integrity and treat others respectfully, they cannot affect who I am if I do not let them.

YOU are accountable for your actions and choices…and NO ONE else!



I have been trying to instill this fact in my children since they were old enough to understand. A lot of people are very quick to blame others for their misfortunes, bad choices, and situations when in reality, they need to take a good look in the mirror. For some people, it is always someone else’s fault.



The truth is, each of us is responsible for ourselves and need to accept the outcome of our actions and choices. Accountability for your own actions is an important part of maturity and understanding that each choice you make has a consequence is something you can never forget.

It’s best to take a deep breath and pause before you show your anger.



This has been a struggle for me. Sometimes I can be quick tempered and it is something I work on every day. I think that I have gotten better as I get older. Honestly, I know from experience that it is always best to take a step back and collect yourself and your thoughts before lashing out. I always try to remind myself that I cannot take back words or actions once I've let them out.



The same goes for sending a nasty email or text. Never send an email or text when you are angry. Write it if you must, but never hit send until you have time to cool down!

A lady worked at a meat distribution factory.

One day, when she finished with her work schedule, she went into the meat cold room (Freezer) to inspect something, but in a moment of misfortune, the door closed and she was locked inside with no help in sight.

Although she screamed and knocked with all her might, her cries went unheard as no one could hear her. Most of the workers had already gone, and outside the cold room it's impossible to hear what was going on inside.


Five hours later, whilst she was at the verge of death, the security guard of the factory eventually opened the door.

She was miraculously saved from dying that day.

When she later asked the security guard how he had come to open the door, which wasn't his usual work routine.

His explanation: "I've been working in this factory for 35 years, hundreds of workers come in and out every day, but you're one of the few who greet me in the morning and say goodbye to me every night when leaving after work. Many treat me as if I'm invisible.

Today, as you reported for work, like all other days, you greeted me in your simple manner 'Hello'. But this evening after working hours, I curiously observed that I

had not heard your "Bye, see you tomorrow".

"Hence, I decided to check around the factory. I look forward to your 'hi' and 'bye' every day because they remind me that I am someone.

"By not hearing your farewell today, I knew something had happened. That's why I was searching every where for you."

Be humble, love and respect those around

you. Try to have an impact on people who

cross your path every day, you never know

what tomorrow will bring..

Stay Blessed.

Reading is a discount ticket to everywhere.

Reading brings us unknown friends.

"A book is a dream that you hold in your hands." - Neil Gaiman

Books are a uniquely portable mystery.
