Taking Care



Story 1: Taking Care..!!


Once in an acrobats show, there was a little girl and young women. They used to perform in pairs. Young lady would teach tricks to the girl and the little girl would learn them obediently from her.


In the show, their act consisted of a young lady balancing a pole in her hand and the little girl would have to climb it up to the top. Once the girl would reach top and make her balance, the young lady would walk around with it.


During their act they both knew that complete focus is needed in order to maintain balance and prevent any injury from occurring.


One day a young lady said to a little girl, “Listen dear.. during our act, i will watch you and you watch me so that we can help each other maintain balance and prevent any accident from occurring and complete our act.


But the little girl replied, “Master.. I think it would be better for each of us to watch ourselves. To look after oneself means to look after both of us. That way I am sure we will avoid any accidents and complete our act.”


Moral: It’s important to Take care of Yourself first as taking care of yourself is the most important thing you can do to Take Care of Others.


Story 2: Getting Rid..??


A man used to love gardening and he took great pride in his lawn. One day he found a large number of dandelions spread in his lawn.


He got rid of them. After some time this happened again. He tried different methods to get rid of them for a long time but still time after time dandelions plagued his garden.


Fed up of this he wrote to the Department of Agriculture and told them about all the things he tried to get rid of dandelions. He asked them for some permanent solution asking, “What shall i do now??”


After some time a reply came which was,”We suggest you learn them..”


Moral: When something Problems Us and we can’t seem to Find any Solution then We should Just Make Peace with it.

McDow Hole – Anatomy Of A Texas Ghost Story

  Spooky Texas legend of the McDow Hole, where ghost sightings of pioneer woman Jenny Papworth and her baby have long been reported.  Written by Bob Hopkins . I first heard the legendary tale of the Ghost of the McDow Hole in the fifteenth year of my youth. It was near Halloween in October 1975 when a friend related the tale of the ghost that haunts a creek bed in rural Erath County and naturally I believed every word of it in the twilight of an evening spent with friends telling ghost stories. I would again hear the tale over the years while living in North Central Texas. It wasn’t until my chance encounter of meeting an author of the legend in 2002 that my curiosity began to peak and like any good investigator I felt it my duty to dig deeper into the hundred year old tale of pioneer folklore to see how much of the story was true and how much was fabricated. I would discover many similarities in fact and fiction that I believed would leave any reader with the same curiosity t...

Tsali: North Carolina Cherokee Ghost Story

  The year was 1838. As the first rays of early morning light crept through the dark and misty mountain valley, Tsali gazed out of his tiny cave with a heavy heart. As a young boy, he spent days running though the thick woods and scampering up the steep, rocky hillsides that surrounded his Cherokee village in western North Carolina. The mountains were his place of escape — a place where he could dream, and be alone with his thoughts. But now, as an ailing, 60-year-old man, Tsali was hiding in these hills for a very different reason. The white man had taken away the land that his ancestors had lived on for centuries. And they would not stop until even these majestic, sacred hills were theirs. Tsali looked out and saw his fellow villagers, who were also hiding in the tiny crevices that dotted the wooded hillside. Many were shivering in the early morning chill. In their haste to leave, they had had no time to pack their belongings. Some managed to smile back at Tsali, their teeth chat...

Lorenzo Dow’s Georgia Curse

  There comes a time in life when we all need a little guidance – a little helpful push to remind us what’s right and wrong. And for some folks, that guidance comes from some good old fashioned, fire and brimstone preaching. Now these days, you can’t turn on the TV without seeing one religious channel after another. But back in the old days when there wasn’t any TV – or cars for that matter – the traveling preacher was the only man of God some country folk got to see. Lorenzo Dow was one of the best-known traveling preachers back in the 1800s. He was a funny looking man from Connecticut – tall and skinny with wild eyes, long stringy hair, a thick beard, and a slight hunchback. But he also had a booming voice that made sinners across the country shake in their boots. “Repent now, my brothers and sisters! Repent!” he would scream in every town he visited, and many people did just that. Lorenzo loved the outdoors, and would rather sleep on cold, hard ground in the woods than the most ...
