do u hate someone?


DO U HATE SOMEONE?

A Nice story with a good moral. Please go through.

A kindergarten teacher has decided to let her class play a game.

The teacher told each child in the class to bring along a plastic bag containing a few potatoes.

Each potato will be given a name of a person that the child hates,

So the number of potatoes that a child will put in his/her plastic bag will depend on the number of people he/she hates.

So when the day came, every child brought some potatoes with the name of the people he/she hated. Some had 2 potatoes; some 3 while some up to 5 potatoes. The teacher then told the children to carry with them the potatoes in the plastic bag wherever they go (even to the toilet) for 1 week.

Days after days passed by, and the children started to complain due to the unpleasant smell let out by the rotten potatoes. Besides, those having 5 potatoes also had to carry heavier bags. After 1 week, the children were relieved because the game had finally ended....

The teacher asked: "How did you feel while carrying the potatoes with you for 1 week?". The children let out their frustrations and started complaining of the trouble that they had to go through having to carry the heavy and smelly potatoes wherever they go.

Then the teacher told them the hidden meaning behind the game. The teacher said: "This is exactly the situation when you carry your hatred for somebody inside your heart. The stench of hatred will contaminate your heart and you will carry it with you wherever you go. If you cannot tolerate the smell of rotten potatoes for just 1 week, can you imagine what is it like to have the stench of hatred in your heart for your lifetime???"

Moral of the story: Throw away any hatred for anyone from your heart so that you will not carry sins for a lifetime. Forgiving others is the best attitude to take!

Have a good laugh

Physiotherapist

Ha ha, I believe some people may have 'problem' with spelling words like physiotherapist, psychiatry, psychology, and whatever 'psycho.. at some time. Perhaps the following would help with remembering one of it ..


*****************************************************************
Physio was an intelligent boy. After doing a physiotherapy course abroad for 3 years, he returned home and set up a clinic in his hometown.

He asked a designer to make a new name plate to be hung on the walloutside the clinic. The next morning when he went to his clinic, he was pleased to find that the name plate was already put up but he was greatly annoyed by the wordings on the plate : TUKANG URUT. He went to the designer and took him to task.


"How can you insult my profession? 'Tukang Urut' means masseur in Malay. I am a physiotherapist and not a masseur! Make sure you change the name right now! And see that the word is spelt correctly!" Physio said angrily.


The designer apologized and promised to make the changes immediately. Without further delay, he proceeded to change the name but found that the word "physiotherapist' was too long. So he broke it up into three words to make it easier to read.


The next morning, Physio hit the roof when he saw the new name. On the name plate were written : PHYSIO THE RAPIST

email dari seorg rakan.........

PERTOLONGAN ALLAH SANGAT DEKAT….

Pada suatu hari hujan cukup lebat melanda kota. Semua warga mengungsi menyelamatkan dirinya kecuali seorang ustadz dengan penuh keyakinan Allah akan menyelamatkan dirinya bila tetap tinggal di masjid,
disetiap detiknya dia memohon kepada Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala, sementara banjir sudah menggenangi teras masjid.
Sebuah perahu hendak menyelamatkan, mengevakuasi ustadz itu tetapi ditolaknya dan berkata, 'Terima kasih saya akan tetap bertahan dimasjid ini.'Hujan semakin lebat, banjir semakin tinggi dan
datanglah perahu kedua hendak menolong ustadz tetapi ditolak lagi, 'Terima kasih, saya percaya Allah akan tetap menolong saya.'Hujan tak kunjung berhenti sehingga keadaan sudah sangat gawat
tetapi
datang perahu ketiga, ustadz tak juga mau dievakuasi, 'Allah pasti menolong saya, jadi saya akan tetap disini.'
Akhirnya banjir itu menenggelamkan masjid dan ustadz tak lagi terselamatkan. Dihadapan Allah, sang ustadz protes kepada Allah. 'Ya Allah, saya adalah hambaMu yang beriman kepadaMu tetapi Engkau kenapa tidak menyelamatkan aku dari banjir?' Kenapa Engkau membiarkan saya menderita Ya Allah?'
Allah kemudian menjawab, 'Bukankah AKU telah mengirimkan tiga perahu untuk menyelamatkan dirimu?'
Pesan kisah diatas bahwa hadirnya pertolongan Allah kepada diri kita seringkali kita tidak pahami. Kita sudah curhat, berkeluh kesah kepada Allah, kita merasa doa kita tidak dikabulkan, masalah kita malah semakin berat seolah Allah tidak sayang kepada kita lagi.
Padahal pertolongan Allah senantiasa hadir dengan cara yang tidak terbatas.
Bisa jadi hadirnya pertolongan Allah itu dalam bentuk nasehat, tulisan, bantuan, guncangan, senyuman, sentilan, makian, tangisan, pujian atau dalam bentuk yang lain.
Ketika
kita sekarang sedang dirundung masalah, Apakah kita sudah cukup peka terhadap hadirnya pertolongan Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala yang ada dihadapan kita? Ataukah justru kita mengabaikannya?
Padahal pertolongan Allah itu sangat dekat,
sebagaimana firman Allah.'Ingatlah, sesungguhnya pertolongan Allah itu sangat dekat.' (QS. al-Baqarah: 214)

LOVE THIS PARABLE! LoL!

There was a man who had worked all his life, had saved all of his money, and was a real 'miser' when it came to his money. Just before he died, he said to his wife...

'When I die, I want you to take all my money and put it in the casket with me. I want to take my money to the afterlife with me..'
And so he got his wife to promise him, with all of her heart, that when he died, she would put all of the money into the casket with him.
Well, he died.

He was stretched out in the casket, his wife was sitting there- dressed in black, and her friend was sitting next to her. When they finished the ceremony, and just before the undertakers got ready to close the casket,

the wife said, 'Wait just a moment!'
She had a small metal box with her; she came over with the box and put it in the casket.

Then the undertakers locked the casket down and they rolled it away So her friend said,'Girl, I know you were not foolish enough to put all that money in there with your husband.'
The loyal wife replied,'Listen, I'm a Christian; I cannot go back on my word.

I promised him that I was going to put that money into the casket with him.'

You mean to tell me you put that money in the casket with him!?!?!?'
'I sure did,' said the wife. 'I got it all together, put it into my account, and wrote him a cheque.... If he can cash it, then he can spend it.'
