News!

take time to read and realize.
Very touching ^^
SON: "Daddy, may I ask you a question?"
DAD: "Yeah sure, what is it?"
SON: "Daddy, how much do you make an
hour?"
DAD: "That's none of your business. Why
do you ask such a thing?"
SON: "I just want to know. Please tell me,
how much do you make an hour?"
DAD: "If you must know, I make $100 an
hour."
SON: "Oh! (With his head down).
SON: "Daddy, may I please borrow $50?"
The father was furious.
DAD: "If the only reason you asked that is
so you can borrow some money to buy a
silly toy or some other nonsense, then you
march yourself straight to your room and
go to bed. Think about why you are being
so selfish. I work hard everyday for such
this childish behavior."
The little boy quietly went to his room and
shut the door.
The man sat down and started to get even
angrier about the little boy's questions.
How dare he ask such questions only to get
some money?
After about an hour or so, the man had
calmed down, and started to think:
Maybe there was something he really
needed to buy with that $ 50 and he really
didn't ask for money very often. The man
went to the door of the little boy's room
and opened the door.
DAD: "Are you asleep, son?"
SON: "No daddy, I'm awake".
DAD: "I've been thinking, maybe I was too
hard on you earlier. It's been a long day
and I took out my aggravation on you.
Here's the $50 you asked for."
The little boy sat straight up, smiling.
SON: "Oh, thank you daddy!"
Then, reaching under his pillow he pulled
out some crumpled up bills. The man saw
that the boy already had money, started to
get angry again. The little boy slowly
counted out his money, and then looked
up at his father.
DAD: "Why do you want more money if
you already have some?"
SON: "Because I didn't have enough, but
now I do.
"Daddy, I have $100 now. Can I buy an
hour of your time? Please come home early
tomorrow. I would like to have dinner with
you."
The father was crushed. He put his arms
around his little son, and he begged for his
forgiveness. It's just a short reminder to all
of you working so hard in life. We should
not let time slip through our fingers
without having spent some time with
those who really matter to us, those close
to our hearts. Do remember to share that
$100 worth of your time with someone
you love? If we die tomorrow, the
company that we are working for could
easily replace us in a matter of days. But
the family and friends we leave behind will
feel the loss for the rest of their lives. And
come to think of it, we pour ourselves
more into work than to our family.
Some things are more important.

drama pre naiyak aq

 

huhuhuhu made me cry so hard huhu :'(

 

is not 100$ per hour a bit much?
anyway you need to work for living, so it does not matter how long you work or how you work, you should work

 

Very touching indeed! It's nice that someone post this kind of things on forum , not only raging ppl who lost their items,hackers....etc.

It's not about how much he gets per hour .... it's just an example/an amount of money.
And about "you should work" , this thread is for the ones who work too hard (like from the morning 'till night).

 

Exactly, though I don't think that's what you should get uot of this story. However, if the dad didn't work, they wouldn't have anything to eat for dinner.

 

thank you mr. obvious, so from your point people should abandon their works and die from poverty? this story made no sense to me and it's an utter sht for me

 

You obviously don't get it.

 

Its a nice story.

Is not about "not working" or being poor by choice, but to make the time to be with those that need you, that is all.

Each its own though.

 

it is what he doesn't get...

Actually it's a narrowed down version of an old moral message...
