Why human is self-centered

 It is mentioned once that there were three friends who were very fond of each other. People used to give examples of their friendship. All three friends grew up together studied in the same school and now used to do business together. They were very close friends. Their business was going very well. They were very hard working. But one day it happened and they started losing business. Their night sleep is forbidden. He tried hard to manage the business but gradually, the business came to a standstill.

Now the three of them were very worried and they were getting poorer day by day. They were unemployed and had no work to do. They thought they should go to the city and do business there. They packed their things and left for the city. Even on the way, there was a forest. The sun was setting and it was going to be night. The three of them thought why not stay here tonight. They put on their own beds and sat down. They were still sitting when after a while he saw a shining object.



As soon as they saw this shining object, they walked towards it and what they saw was nothing, but three gold bricks. They were very surprised but very happy. They saw hope to live. They thought that only now they will become rich and their household would be well-off. Now they could start a business out of it. So, they took one of their respective shares and went to their tents. The three friends divided bricks equally. As soon as it was time to leave, they were feeling very hungry. They decided that one of the three friends should go to town and bring food. A friend had gone to town to fetch food. And the other two friends sat in the forest and waited for him.



While going to a friend’s city, two friends sitting behind them became greedy. They thought why not kill the friend who had gone to the city and divided equally among themselves. Because in this way these three bricks will have two parts and we will be able to get maximum gold. So, both made a plan to kill him.

Similarly, the one who had gone to the city also started to get greedy in his heart. He thought why not kill the two friends sitting in this forest. So that he can keep more gold for himself. He mixed poison in the food. Now he was coming towards the forest with the food that the two friends were hiding to kill him who was already there. As soon as he arrived, these two friends attacked him and killed him. They divided the gold equally among themselves. After that, the two friends sat down and started eating. They could not bear the effect of the poison and pilled up there. Greed led to death. Those gold bricks remained there and were of no use to anyone.

 Everyone knows God has made man the best of creation. But it is wealth that makes a person selfish and greedy.

Why Hard work is Always Better than Begging

 Hard work is the key to success. nothing in this world is impossible for a person who targets to achieve with commitment and hard work. If we give a fried fish to a person without any of his efforts, then he will become habitual of doing nothing and aging the benefit without hard work, but if we teach him how to catch a fish, and use it as his food, then he will be more benefitted and will never try to beg in front of anyone. We can justify this statement by the following story. There was a school in a village, where children of mostly poor communities were getting their education. No uniform code was there in this school and students used to come in any of their available dresses. Education standards were reasonable but the teachers of this school were very much committed to their job in grooming their students, especially with respect to general ethics. The poor people were earning their livings hardly but were committed to educating the next generation for a better future. One ...

Where There is a Will There is a Way

Where there is a will there is always a way. If anyone puts full commitment and effort to achieve any target, destiny will help him/her to get it. It is upon the person how dedicated he/she is to the achievement of his goal. Nothing in this world is impossible if the person engaged in its fulfillment shows true spirit and d edication. We can get an example of "Where there is will there is a way" which is mentioned in succeeding paragraphs.  There was a person who was a very good journalist and always worked with zeal and zest for his newspaper. He was so dedicated to his job that he always remained the backbone of his network. He had a wish to write a book of his own but he never got time for that. His commitment to his job was always appreciated by his seniors and the owner of his newspaper. One day when he woke up to go for his duty, he tried to get out of his bed but surprisingly he was unable to move. He became totally disabled and his whole body except his brain beca...

Why Human is Ignorant of Basic Ethics

Humans are living creatures that are not only made of flesh and blood but have some feelings and thoughts, and are to follow certain rules and ethics. But they are running behind wealth, and fame and exhibit a materialistic approach, violating the basics, for which they are in this world. Loyalty is one of these basic values which humans are to adopt. If humans look at the loyalty and sincerity of an animal, like a dog, they will get ashamed of themselves. Such an example is given in the following paragraphs. Once upon there was a family of Bedouin, who were having a herd of sheep. This family used to travel far away in search of food for their sheep, keeping in view the weather changes. During winter this family always preferred to move to the plain and in summer towards the hilly areas. This family had a dog of a good breed which always moved with the herd of sheep for security purposes. This dog had a special affiliation with the Bedouin family and the sheep. It was winter season ...
