“ A young lady was waiting her flight in the boarding room of a big airport.
As she would wait for many hours, she decided to buy a book to spend her time. She also bought a packet of cookies.
She sat down on a airmchair, in the VIP room of the airport, to rest and read in peace.
Beside the airmchair there was the packet of cookies, a man sat down, opened his magazine and started reading.
When she cought the first cookie, the man cought one also. She felt herself infuriate but didn’t say anything. She just thought: “What a nerve! If I was in the mood I would punch his eye not to forget this daring!”
To each cokkie she cought, the man cought one either. That was letting her infuriated but she couldn’t react.
When remained only one cookie, she thought: “ah... What this abused man will do now?” Then, the man, divided the last cookie in the middle, giving her the half.
Ah! That was too much! She was too much angry! Then, she caught her book, caught her things and headed to the boarding place.
When she sat down in an armchair, inside the plane, she looked into her purse to catch her eyeglasses, and, to her surprise, her packet of cookies was there, untouched, closed!
She felt so much ashamed!! She realized that she was the wrong one... She had forgotten that her cookies were kept into her purse.
The man divided his cookies with her, wihtout feeling infuriated, nervous or mad...
...while she was been very mad, thinking that he was dividing her cookies with him. but there was no more time to explain herself... Nor to apologizes!”
The stone... ...after shot!
The word... ... ...after pronounced!
The occasion... ... after lost!
The time... ...after gone!

An emotional response clouds our judgment and creates guilt. There is no embarrassment in falling down, but problem is with not getting up and moving on is LIFE. POSITIVE ATTITUDE
BUILDING POSITIVE ATTITUDE • Look for goodness in people • Build a positive Self Esteem • Avoid Negative Influences • Work on Continuous Self Development
