What goes around.....

We all know that every good deed never goes 'unrewarded'. In that respect, allow me to tell you about the following event.

A man and his wife are awakened at 3 o'clock in the morning by a loud pounding on the door....

The man gets up and goes to the door where a drunken stranger, standing in the pouring rain, is asking for a push.
"Not a chance," says the husband, "It is three o'clock in the morning."

He slams the door and returns to bed.

"Who was that?" asked his wife.
"Just some drunken guy asking for a push" he answers.
"Did you help him?" she asked
"No. I did not. It is three in the morning and it's pouring rain outside!"

His wife said:"Can't you remember about three months ago when we broke down and those two guys helped us? I think you should help him, and you should be ashamed of yourself!"

The man does as he is told... (of course), gets dressed and goes out into the pouring rain. He calls out into the dark, "Hello? Are you still there?"

"Yes" comes back the answer.

"Do you still need a push?" calls out the husband.

"Yes Please!" comes the reply from the darkness.

"Where are you?" asks the husband.

"Over here on the swing!!"

“Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember. Involve me and I learn.”

These words are almost spiritual, you know...

Hi Zakman

That's what I thought too. And in a way they are, no matter what subject you're 'learning'.
Why don't we turn it into a mantra and keep growing, mentally ;-)
