Motivational Story Of Friendship

Two girls were best of friends, since their childhood. When they were small kids, they used to go to school together, play together and sometimes even stay at each other's places. They were next door neighbors and thus their parents were friends as well. The best friends graduated from school and went to pursue higher studies in the same college. Everyone knew that the girls were the best of friends. Nothing was hidden between the duo, because both knew each other inside out.

After some days, one of the friends found the other behaving in a very strange manner. She would remain withdrawn, sleep too much and turn violent, very often. At first, the other friend thought it was just the studies getting on to her. However, with time, she became even more moody and frustrated. Finally, her friend couldn't take it any longer and confronted her with the problem. She broke down into tears and confessed that she was going around with a guy, who was taking drugs and forced her to take them too.

The girl was not only forced to take drugs, but was also forced to bring money every now and then and was threatened with dire consequences, if she revealed the matter to anyone, even her best friend. Shocked by her story, the other friend consoled her. She then thought of a way to help her. Finally, she thought that she would come up straight to the point and tell her to leave this guy and get out of all the mess. She contacted the college counselor, who was a psychologist and narrated all the problem to her. She offered to help and said that matter would be kept under wraps.

The girl was then advised by her friend to leave this guy, as he was torturing her unnecessarily. Her friend reminded her of her dreams of becoming a successful professional, inspired her to set an example for others and reminded of what her parents would feel, if they found out what their daughter was up to. After a lot of persuasion, the girl finally agreed to leave him. She was given basic counseling and was weaned off drugs, with time. All this while, her friend never left her side and always stood by her.

Finally, they graduated and the friendship only grew stronger. They both went on to become successful professionals, but never let each other down by indulging themselves into bad habits. They lived happily ever after, as close friends. The story leaves the reader to think about the depth of friendship shared by the two girls. The moral of the story is that true friends are those, who inspire you to become the best you can ever be. They have full confidence in you. They would not leave you until your goal is accomplished.

Funny Story On Friendship

While walking down a busy street one day, a successful Human Resource Director was knocked down by a bus. She died and her soul came to Heaven. She met St. Peter at the Pearly Gates, who said that they never had an HR director before, so he had no idea what to do. She asked him if she could go inside and see for herself, but St. Peter declined saying that he had orders from higher authorities, not to allow any soul to enter without going through a test. He told her that she would have to live for a day in Hell and one day in Heaven and then choose between the two.

She was sent to Hell via the elevator. When the door finally opened, she was quite surprised to find a lush green golf course. In front of her were her friends and fellow colleagues, with whom she had worked when she was alive. They were all dressed in gorgeous gowns and lovely clothes and were cheering for her. She had a warm welcome and enjoyed every bit of her stay there. She talked of old times with them, relived old memories and had a splendid dinner. She was pleasantly surprised to see the Devil (who was actually handsome!) dressed up in a nice suit and talk to her very politely. Finally, it was time for her to bid farewell to her friends and go back to the Pearly Gates.

She got out of the elevator and found St. Peter waiting for her. He then told her that she would now spend 24 hours in Heaven. She was greeted with a beautiful sight in Heaven. She saw gorgeous angels and splendid clouds. She lounged the entire day on clouds and played the harp. She had a great time singing and entertaining herself and before she could realize her day was over. She met St. Peter again who asked her where she would like to go for eternity. She chose Hell, as she thought she had a better time there with her friends.

Therefore, she was sent back to Hell via the same elevator. When she reached, she had a shock awaiting her. Instead of the green golf course, she saw a dilapidated wasteland that was covered in filth. Her friends were dressed in rags and were picking up garbage. Finally, she saw the Devil who looked horrifying, instead of handsome. She asked him what happened here, as she was expecting something different. The Devil just smiled and said that yesterday, they were recruiting and today she was the staff!

Friendship Forever

Two inseparable friends, Sam and Jason, met with an accident on their way to Boston City. The following morning, Jason woke up blind and Sam was still unconscious. Dr. Berkeley was standing at his bedside looking at his health chart and medications with a thoughtful expression on his face. When he saw Sam awake, he beamed at him and asked." How are you feeling today Sam?" Sam tried to put up a brave face and smiled back saying, "absolutely wonderful Doctor. I am very grateful for all that you have done for me. "Dr Berkeley was moved at Sam's deed. All that he could say was, "You are a very brave man Sam and God will make it up to you in one way or another". While he was moving on to the next patient, Sam called back at him almost pleading, "promise me you won't tell Jason anything".
"You know I won't do that. Trust me." and walked away.
"Thank you " whispered Sam. He smiled and looked up in prayer " I hope I live up to your ideas...please give me the strength to be able to go through this..Amen"

Months later when Jason had recuperated considerably, he stopped hanging around with Sam. He felt discouraged and embarrassed to spend time with a disabled person like Sam.
Sam was lonely and disheartened ,since he didn't have any body else other than Jason to count on. Things went from bad to worse. And one day Sam died in despair. When Jason was called on his burial, he found a letter waiting for him. Dr Berkeley gave it to him with an expressionless face and said" This is for you Jason. Sam had asked me to give it to you when he was gone".

In the letter he had said: " Dear Jason, I have kept my promise in the end to lend you my eyes if anything had happened to them. Now there is nothing more that I can ask from God, than the fact ,that will see the world through my eyes. You will always be my best friend........Sam".
When he had finished reading Dr. Berkeley said " I had promised Sam to keep his sacrifice he made a secret from you. But now I wish I didn't stick it Because I don't think It was worthy it" .
All that was left for Jason while he stood there was tears of regret and memories of Sam for the rest of his life .

Lesson of the story: No matter what If we make a friend, we should stick by him till the end. Life is meaningless without a friend.

A True Friend

In ancient Greece, Socrates was reputed to hold knowledge in high esteem. One day one fellow met the great philosopher and said, "Do you know what I just heard about your friend?". "Hold on a minute," Socrates replied. "Before telling me anything I'd like you to pass a little test. It's called the Triple Filter Test.". "Triple filter?". "That's right," Socrates continued. "Before you talk to me about my friend, it might be a good idea to take a moment and filter what you're going to say. That's why I call it the triple filter test. The first filter is Truth. Have you made absolutely sure that what you are about to tell me is true?" "No," the man said, "actually I just heard about it and...". "All right," said Socrates. "So you don't know if it's true or not. Now let's try the second filter, the filter of Goodness. Is what you are about to tell me about my friend something good?" . "No, on the contrary...". "So," Socrates continued, "you want to tell me something bad about him, but you're not certain it's true. You may still pass the test though, because there's one filter left: the filter of Usefulness. Is what you want to tell me about my friend going to be useful to me?" "No, not really." "Well," concluded Socrates, "if what you want to tell me is neither true nor good nor even useful, why tell it to me at all?"

Lesson:
Well we can always participate in loose talks to curb our boredom. But when it comes to you friends its not worth it. Always avoid talking behind the back about your near and dear friends.

My Best Friend

Today I found a friend,
Who knew everything I felt.
he knew my every weakness,
And the problems I've been dealt.

he understood my wonders,
And listened to my dreams.
he listened to how I felt about life and love,
And knew what it all means.

Not once did he interrupt me,
Or tell me I was wrong.
he understood what I was going through,
And promised he'd stay long

I reached out to this friend
To show him that i care
To pull him close and let him know
How much I need him there

I went to hold his hand
To pull him a bit nearer
And realized that this perfect friend I found
Was nothing but my mirror.

friends

A friend is like a flower,
a rose to be exact,
Or maybe like a brand new gate
that never comes unlatched.
A friend is like an owl,
both beautiful and wise.
Or perhaps a friend is like a ghost,
whose spirit never dies.
A friend is like a heart that goes
strong until the end.
Where would we be in this world
if we didn't have a friend.
- By Adrianne S

That little voice in your head.

Have you ever wondered who's that little voice in your head that
tells you,

"I'm not good enough yet, people will laugh at me if I do this, one
person can't make a difference, so why even try?"

His name is Fear. Most of the time, this Fear plays a major role is
our lives.

We must rid ourself of him using any means possible.

We're are often impressed by those who appear to be
fearless.

People who dare fly to the moon.

Swim with the sharks.

Enter dangerous war zones.

Speak in front of thousands of people.

Raise money for the needy and adopt a child that isn't their own
flesh and blood.

Noor, Why are we so inspired by them?

Its because deep down, we are them.

We all share the same human characteristics.

We're all divine.

Until Fear is gone, (and realize he may never
fully leave) make the decision to be courageous.

The world needs your story in order to be complete.

Money is the root of all Evil

1) Money is the root of all Evil
2) You have to work very hard to get rich
3) Your job is something you do earn money, and you have fun after
your work day ends.
4) Successful people are greedy and cunning.
5) You need to have a secure job if you want to be rich and happy.
6) If you are rich, people will become your friends just for the
money.

advice on how to treat people

1. don't give people a cold look even if you do not like them
2. treat them like you treat other people eventhough you want to avoid them
3. if you cannot do that, then just be honest and straightforward
4. humor is the best medicine to cheer others but careful, depend on the situation.
5. don't express ur thoughts bluntly. some things are better to remain unsaid.
6. be sensitive. notice that there are some things that people do not like u to touch or to make joke with (do not be like me, i regretted it)
7. be urself, but reveal it slowly (small step at a time, for me baby steps LOL)

life is simple, it's us who make it harder...;)

the Script-the man who can't be moved

"The Man Who Can't Be Moved"

Going Back to the corner where I first saw you
Gonna camp in my sleeping bag I'm not gonna move
Got some words on cardboard, got your picture in my hand
Saying, "If you see this girl can you tell her where I am?"

Some try to hand me money, they don't understand
I'm not broke I'm just a broken hearted man
I know it makes no sense but what else can I do
How can I move on when I'm still in love with you

'cause if one day you wake up and find that you're missing me
And your heart starts to wonder where on this earth I could be
Thinkin maybe you'll come back here to the place that we'd meet
And you'll see me waiting for you on our corner of the street
So I'm not moving, I'm not moving

Policeman says, "Son you can't stay here"
I said, "There's someone I'm waiting for if it's a day, a month, a year"
Gotta stand my ground even if it rains or snows
If she changes her mind this is the first place she will go

'cause If one day you wake up and find that you're missing me
And your heart starts to wonder where on this earth I could be
Thinking maybe you'll come back here to the place that we'd meet
And you'll see me waiting for you on our corner of the street
So I'm not moving, I'm not moving,
I'm not moving, I'm not moving

People talk about the guy that's waiting on a girl
There are no holes in his shoes but a big hole in his world

Maybe I'll get famous as the man who can't be moved
Maybe you wont mean to but you'll see me on the news
And you'll come running to the corner
'cause you'll know it's just for you
I'm the man who can't be moved

[Chorus 2x]

Going back to the corner where I first saw you
Gonna camp in my sleeping bag I'm not gonna move
