“On a ship there was a pair of couple, suddenly
ship met with an accident and couple had to run
to life boat. After reaching there they realized that
there was space only for one person. At that
moment, husband pushed wife behind him and
jumped on to the lifeboat himself. His wife stood on the
sinking ship and shouted one sentence to her
husband.”
Teacher stopped and asked her students, “What
do you think  she shouted?”
Most students answered, “I hate you!!”
Now, after listening to all this reply she noticed
that there was a boy sitting silently throughout.
She asked him to answer for same.
Boy answered, “Teacher. I believe she would
have shouted – Take care of our child.”
Listening to this teacher was surprised and asked
boy, “Have you heard this story before?”
Boy shook his head in No and said, “No i haven’t
but that’s what my mother told my father before
she died because of disease.”
Teacher lamented, “Your answer is right.”
She continued, “The ship sank, Man went home
and bought up their daughter alone. Many years
later after the death of the man. Daughter was tiding
up all his belonging where she found out his
dairy. In  the dairy she found out that when her parents
where on the ship, her mother was already
diagnosed with terminal illness and at critical
moment (while ship was sinking) father rushed to
the only chance of survival.”
In his dairy the man (his fathet) wrote about how he wished he
could sink to the bottom of the ocean with his wife
but for the sake of their daughter he had to leave.
Story was finished and class was silent. Teacher
knew that students has understood the moral of
story.

Moral:

Of the Good and Evil in this world, There are
many complications behind them which are Hard
to Understand, So we should not really focus on
surface and Judge anyone without understanding
them first.

Losing everything in Anger!

Is the title of today's Inspirational message.

Questions &Answers (Q&A) with lad Ralph Twitter edition is this Friday Sept, 10,2016. It's strictly Direct Message (DM).

I READ THIS SOMEWHERE ON THE INTERNET SOME YEARS AGO I THOUGHT IT WISE TO SHARE WITH YOU. I HAVE NO IDEA WHO AUTHORED THIS PIECE.

A couple had been married for 10 years but they
didn’t had any child. They stayed with each other
and really hoped that they will have a child before
their 11th anniversary. Their family and friends
were pursuing them to get a divorce but they
didn’t wanted to get separated because of strong
love between them.
Months passed.
One day while husband was returning home from
work, he saw his wife walking down street with a
man. They were looking very happy. After a week
again husband saw his wife with same man
again. Husband saw them many times roaming
places with each other. Hugging each other.

One evening while husband was returning home,
He saw that man dropped her off with a good bye
kiss on her cheek. Husband got angry and sad.
After a hectic day at work, Husband was home.
While he was holding a glass jug to get water,
Phone rang. He received the call. As soon as he
picked the call voice came form other side saying,
“Hello dear, I will be coming to your home this
evening to see you as i promise, I hope..”
Husband hung up call before hearing any further.
Husband thought to himself, “It was male voice
and i am sure it’s same person i have seen with
my wife many times.” He thought he had lost his
wife to another man and thinking that glass jug
fell from his hand and shattered into pieces.
Listening to noise, his wife came running to him
and asked, “Is everything okay??”
In anger he pushed his wife. She fell and wasn’t
moving. Few seconds later husband realized that
she fell on the broken jug pieces and a large piece
has pierced her. Husband tried to feel her breath,
heartbeat but there wasn’t any.
His wife was dead. He saw an envelope in her
hand. He took it and read it. He was shocked by
what was written in it.
It reads :
“My loving husband, words can’t express how i
feel so… I had to write down this letter. I have
been seeing a doctor for over a week and i
wanted to be sure before giving you the big news.
Doctor have confirmed that i am pregnant. Our
baby is due 5 months from now. Doctor i have
been seeing is my long lost brother whom i
contacted after our marriage. He promised me to
take care of me and baby and will give us best
care without any fee.
He promised to have dinner with us tonight. I had
to write to you because i am so happy. Thanks
for staying by my side.
Your loving wife.”
Letter fell from his hands. At same time he heard
knock on the door it was same man he had seen
with his wife. He came in and said, “Hello, i am
John, your wife’s brother…….” Suddenly he notice
his sister lying in pool of her blood. He rushed
her to hospital where she was confirmed dead.

Moral:

We should not be Quick to Judge Other person.
In Relationships we should Try to talk and clear
things. We should not let our Anger control us
because Not everything we see or hear is true.

THE THREE DOLLS

Is the title of today's Inspirational message.

*ATTENTION*
On behalf of the team #TeamRalph I wish to personally thank everyone who participated in the Q&A on whatsApp, we say Ayekoo (Welcome) next week is the Twitter edition.

A sage presented a prince with a set of three small
dolls. The prince was not amused.
“Am I a girl that you give me dolls?” – He asked.
“This is a gift for a future king,” Said the sage. “If
you look carefully, you’ll see a hole in the ear of
each doll.”
The sage handed him a piece of string. “Pass it
through each doll.” – He said.
Intrigued, the prince picked up the first doll and put
the string into the ear. It came out from the other
ear. “This is one type of person,” said the sage,
“whatever you tell him, comes out from the other
ear. He doesn’t retain anything.”
The prince put the string into the second doll. It
came out from the mouth. “This is the second type
of person,” said the sage, “whatever you tell him,
he tells everybody else.”
The prince picked up the third doll and repeated
the process. The string did not come out. “This is
the third type of person,” said the sage, “whatever
you tell him is locked up within him. It never
comes out.”
“What is the best type of person?” – Asked the
prince.
The sage handed him a fourth doll, in answer.
When the prince put the string into the doll, it
came out from the other ear.

“Do it again.” – Said the sage.
The prince repeated the process. This time the
string came out from the mouth. When he put the
string in a third time, it did not come out at all.
“This is the best type of person,” said the sage.
“To be trustworthy, a man must know when not to
listen, when to remain silent and when to speak
out.”

Thomas Edison tried two thousand different
materials in search of a filament for the light bulb.
When none worked satisfactorily, his assistant
complained, “All our work is in vain. We have
learned nothing.”
Edison replied very confidently, “Oh, we have come
a long way and we have learned a lot. We know
that there are two thousand elements which we
cannot use to make a good light bulb.”
There's this Chinese proverb  which goes " Failure is the only opportunity to begin more intelligently" never stop trying.

HOW THE POOR LIVE!

Is the title of today's Inspirational message.

NOTICE

Questions &, Answers (Q&A) with Lad Ralph on WhatsApp comes off tomorrow

9pm - 3pm

Which question to ask?

Any question goes, as far as you ask, it will be answered
The WhatsApp line will be communicated later.

One day, a father of a very wealthy family took
his son on a trip to the country with the firm
purpose of showing his son how poor people
live. They spent a couple of days and nights on
the farm of what would be considered a very
poor family. On their return from their trip, the
father asked his son, “How was the trip?”
“It was great, Dad.”
“Did you see how poor people live?” the father
asked.
“Oh yeah,” said the son.
“So, tell me, what did you learn from the trip?”
asked the father.
The son answered, “I saw that we have one dog
and they had four. We have a pool that reaches
to the middle of our garden, and they have a
creek that has no end. We have imported
lanterns in our garden, and they have the stars
at night. Our patio reaches to the front yard, and
they have the whole horizon. We have a small
piece of land to live on, and they have fields
that go beyond our sight. We have servants
who serve us, but they serve others. We buy
our food, but they grow theirs. We have walls
around our property to protect us; they have
friends to protect them.”
The boy’s father was speechless.
Then his son added, “Thanks, Dad, for showing
me how poor we are.”
Lessons

How much money we may
have, a person who live his life
in scarce resources happily is a true
achiever in his live.

We people like to
limit ourselves. God gave us the world to
live in, we created borders, visa, passports,
all these are limitations. THE TIME OF
PASSWORD…  will come where a
password will be required to enter a
church, and we call it advance, I call it
limitation.

Richness or poverty is on the eye of the
beholder.

We think that giving material things is what
make our children happy but all children
really want is to be free run with the
chickens and run there feet in the stream
and eat an apple off the tree and read them
a story for bed that's being rich and happy.

Material things don’t matter in life.
Family, Friends are the people that
matters in life.

Juggle Balls

Is the title of today's Inspirational message.

NOTICE
Questions and Answers (Q&A) with Lad Ralph on WhatsApp comes off this Friday 
9am-3pm


Which Question to ask?

As far as you ask, it will be answered.
The WhatsApp line will be communicated to you later.

Imagine life as a game in which you are juggling
some five balls in the air. You name them – work,
family, health, friends and spirit and you’re keeping
all of these in the air. You will soon understand
that work is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will
bounce back. But the other four balls – family,
health, friends and spirit are made of glass. If you
drop one of these, they will be irrevocably scuffed,
marked, nicked, damaged or even shattered. They
will never be the same. You must understand that
and strive for balance in your life. How?
Don’t undermine your worth by comparing
yourself with others. It is because we are
different that each of us is special.
Don’t set your goals by what other people deem
important. Only you know what is best for you.
Don’t take for granted the things closest to your
heart. Cling to them as you would your life, for
without them, life is meaningless.
Don’t let your life slip through your fingers by
living in the past or for the future. By living your
life one day at a time, you live ALL the days of
your life.
Don’t give up when you still have something to
give. Nothing is really over until the moment you
stop trying.
Don’t be afraid to admit that you are less than
perfect. It is this fragile thread that binds us each
together.
Don’t be afraid to encounter risks. It is by taking
chances that we learn how to be brave.
Don’t shut love out of your life by saying it’s
impossible to find. The quickest way to receive
love is to give; the fastest way to lose love is to
hold it too tightly; and the best way to keep love
is to give it wings.
Don’t run through life so fast that you forget not
only where you’ve been, but also where you are
going.
Don’t forget that a person’s greatest emotional
need is to feel appreciated.
Don’t be afraid to learn. Knowledge is weightless,
a treasure you can always carry easily.
Don’t use time or words carelessly. Neither can
be retrieved. Life is not a race, but a journey to
be savored each step of the way.

The Loser Who Never Gave Up

Is the title of today's Inspirational message.

NOTICE
Questions & Answers with Lad Ralph on WhatsApp comes off September 02,2016.
Watch out for details soon

When he was a little boy his uncle called him
“Sparky”, after a comic-strip horse named Spark
Plug. School was all but impossible for Sparky.
He failed every subject in the eighth grade. He
flunked physics in high school, getting a grade of
zero. He also flunked Latin, algebra and English.
And his record in sports wasn’t any better.
Though he did manage to make the school’s golf
team, he promptly lost the only important match of
the season. Oh, there was a consolation match; he
lost that too.
Throughout his youth, Sparky was awkward
socially. It wasn’t that the other students disliked
him; it’s just that no one really cared all that
much. In fact, Sparky was astonished if a
classmate ever said hello to him outside of school
hours. There’s no way to tell how he might have
done at dating. He never once asked a girl out in
high school. He was too afraid of being turned
down… or perhaps laughed at. Sparky was a loser.
He, his classmates… everyone knew it. So he
learned to live with it. He made up his mind early
that if things were meant to work out, they would.
Otherwise he would content himself with what
appeared to be his inevitable mediocrity.
One thing WAS important to Sparky, however —
drawing. He was proud of his artwork. No one else
appreciated it. But that didn’t seem to matter to
him. In his senior year of high school, he
submitted some cartoons to the the yearbook. The
editors rejected the concept. Despite this brush-
off, Sparky was convinced of his ability. He even
decided to become an artist.
So, after completing high school, Sparky wrote
Walt Disney Studios. They asked for samples of
his artwork. Despite careful preparation, it too was
rejected. One more confirmation that he was a
loser.
But Sparky still didn’t give up. Instead, he decided
to tell his own life’s story in cartoons. The main
character would be a little boy who symbolized the
perpetual loser and chronic underachiever. You
know him well. Because Sparky’s cartoon
character went on to become a cultural
phenomenon of sorts. People readily identified with
this “lovable loser.” He reminded people of the
painful and embarrassing moments from their own
past, of their pain and their shared humanity. The
character soon became famous worldwide: “Charlie
Brown.” And Sparky, the boy whose many failures
never kept him from trying, whose work was
rejected again and again,… is the highly
successful cartoonist Charles Schultz. His cartoon
strip, “Peanuts,” continues to inspire books, T-
shirts and Christmas specials, reminding us, as
someone once commented, that life somehow
finds a way for all of us, even the losers.
Sparky’s story reminds us of a very important
principle in life. We all face difficulty and
discouragement from time to time. We also have a
choice in how we handle it. If we’re persistent, if
we hold fast to our faith, if we continue to develop
the unique talents God has given us, who knows
what can happen? We may end up with an insight
and an ability to inspire that comes only through
hardship. In the end, there are no “losers” with
God. Some winners just take longer to develop!
