Today's Story - The Friendship

 

Once upon a time there was a poor but very brave man called Ali.

He worked for Ammar, a rich old merchant.

One winter's night Ammar said:

“nobody can spend a night like this on top of the mountain without a blanket or food.

But you need money, and if you can manage to do that you will receive a great reward

If you don't, you will work for thirty days without pay”.

Ali answered: “tomorrow I shall do this test”.

But when he left the shop, he saw that a really icy wind was blowing and became scared, so he decided to ask his best friend, Aydi, if it was crazy of him to accept that bet.

After reflecting a while, Aydi answered:

“I shall help you

Tomorrow, when you are at the top of the mountain, look ahead.

I will be on the top of the mountain next to yours, where I will spend the whole night with a bonfire lit for you.

You look at the fire and think about our friendship – that will keep you warm

You will manage, and later on I shall ask you something in return.”

Ali won the test, got the money, and went to his friend's house:

“You told me you wanted some payment.”

Aydi answered: “Yes, but it isn't money

Promise that if at any time a cold wind passes through my life, you will light the fire of friendship for me.”

Funny - His Math Grades Had Been Steadily Declining

 

She decided to have a chat with Johnny about his disinterest in math, being more responsible with his studies, and the importance of bringing his grade up.

The next quarter ended, Johnny's report card came out, and his math grade was still low

So Johnny's mother decided to call his math teacher in an attempt to get to the root of the problem

Little Johnny's mother was hopeful that Johnny's math grade would finally improve.

But to her dismay, his grade had still not improved on his next report card.

In an act of desperation, little Johnny's mother decided to transfer him to the local Catholic school.

Immediately, she noticed that when Johnny came home from school, he wouldn't say a word, but would go straight to the table and begin doing his math homework

Johnny's mother was very pleased with this sudden change; and over the course of the next few weeks, it seemed little Johnny's math issue had finally been resolved.

Once again, Johnny's report card came; but this time he got an “A” in math.

Johnny's mother was overjoyed, yet a little perplexed.

She asked him, “What do they do so differently at the Catholic school that finally persuaded you to change your attitude and bring up your math grade?”

Little Johnny replied, “On the first day of math class, when I looked up and saw that guy hanging from the giant plus sign above the chalkboard, I knew they weren't messing around.”

Funny - A boy asks his father, "Dad, are bugs good to eat?" "That's disgusting. Don't talk about things like that over dinner," the dad replies. After dinner the father asks, "Now, son, what did you want to ask me?" "Oh, nothing," the boy says. "There was a bug in your soup, but now it’s gone."
