Today's Story - Thomas Girlfriends

Thomas is 32 years old and he is still single.

One day a friend asked, “Why aren’t you married? Can’t you find a woman who will be a good wife?”

Thomas replied, “Actually, I’ve found many women I wanted to marry, but when I bring them home to meet my parents, my mother doesn’t like them.”

His friend thinks for a moment and says, “I’ve got the perfect solution, just find a girl who’s just like your mother.”

A few months later they meet again and his friend says, “Did you find the perfect girl? Did your mother like her?”

With a frown on his face, Thomas answers, “Yes, I found the perfect girl. She was just like my mother. You were right, my mother liked her very much.”

The friend said, “Then what’s the problem?”

Thomas replied, “My father doesn’t like her.”

Learn why the world wags and what wags it. That is the only thing which the mind can never exhaust, never alienate, never be tortured by, never fear or distrust, and never dream of regretting. Learning is the only thing for you. Look what a lot of things there are to learn. T. H. White

Quotes by Martin Luther King Jr - I have decided to stick with love. Hate is too great a burden to bear.

 

He who passively accepts evil is as much involved in it as he who helps to perpetrate it. He who accepts evil without protesting against it is really cooperating with it.

Let us not seek to satisfy our thirst for freedom by drinking from the cup of 

bitterness and hatred.

He who is devoid of the power to forgive is devoid of the power to love.

Forgiveness is not an occasional act; it is a constant attitude.

You know, a lot of people don’t love themselves. And they go through life with deep

 and haunting emotional conflicts. So the length of life means that 

you must love yourself. And you know what loving yourself

 also means? It means that you’ve got to accept yourself.
