Something More Valuable



One of the most powerful rich men in Brazil made an announcement. He announced that he will be burying his million dollar rare Bentley car in the ground so that he could drive it even in his afterlife.


This received a lot of media attention and some even criticized him for wasting such a rare and precious commodity as he can donate it for charity.


Even after much criticism he received, he went on with the ceremony on the decided date. Media was present there to cover that event.


Ground was prepared for the burial of his Bentley. Just moments before lowering that car into the ground, he declared that he wouldn’t bury his car.


People present there were confused and questioned his announcement.


Just then he told everyone about his real motive for creating all the buzz and drama was to create awareness among people about Organ Donation..


He said, “People condemn me because I wanted to bury a million dollar Bentley, in fact most people bury something a lot more valuable than my car.


They bury hearts, livers, lungs, eyes, and kidneys. This is absurd. So many people are waiting for a transplant and you bury your healthy organs that could save so many lives..“

Mud: Tennessee Ghost Story

  Tennessee ghost story of a killer who encounters a strange old man along a dark road after burying his victim. What does this old man know about his crime? Find out in this short story by Andy Hinton. Although the walk should have been easier without the load, the adrenaline and whisky that had fuelled Jason earlier in the night is exhausted, and what energy remains is being used to shiver himself warm. As a result, it takes him half an hour to get back to the car. But time is relative, for what is half an hour in a night that never ends. Jason leans the shovel against the trunk and reaches into his right pocket for the keys; finding none, he goes to his left pocket and digs deeper. Then he runs both hands through all his pockets and rechecks them again. “Damn it.” Jason kicks the car, but the sound is muffled by the storm. He is angry enough, cold and worn out enough, to break a window, but he knows he needs the keys to drive home if he is ever to be done with this dreadful...

Mama Coon Coon: A Louisiana Swamp Folktale

  Now I’ll just bet that none of you have ever heard the story of Mama Coon Coon and the blue waters of the bayou, have you? Well, we know the story, and I think we need to tell it to you right now. Once upon a time, the waters of the bayou were black – as black as ink. Now, even though these waters were black, they were still filled with lots and lots of fishes, shrimp and crab. And all of the fishermen would wake up early in the morning, long before the sun had even come above the horizon, and they would cast their nets down into the deep, black water. And what a wonderful sight it was at the end of the day to watch those fishermen pulling in their nets overflowing with all kinds of fishes, shrimp and crab. Dulac Louisiana Bayou by  Clem .

You see, that is the name the local village children gav...
