Is quite touching and in fact not much people can do it and most of
the time anger will take up everything...
A boy was born to a couple after eleven years of marriage. They
were a loving couple and the boy was the gem of their eyes. When
the boy was around two years old, one morning the husband saw a
medicine bottle open. He was late for office so he asked his wife
to cap the bottle and keep it in the cupboard. His wife,
preoccupied in the kitchen totally forgot the matter. The boy saw
the bottle and playfully went to the bottle fascinated by its color
and drank it all. It happened to be a poisonous medicine meant for
adults in small dosages. When the child collapsed the mother
hurried him to the hospital. He died. The mother was stunned. She
was terrified how she was going to face her husband.
When the distraught father came to the hospital and saw the dead
child, he looked at his wife and uttered just five words.
QUESTIONS :
1. What were the five words ?
2. What is the implication of this
story?
ANSWER :
The husband just said "I am with you
Darling".
The husband's totally unexpected reaction is a proactive behavior.
The child is dead. He can never be brought back to life. There is
no point in finding fault with the mother. Besides, if only he had
taken time to keep the bottle away, this would not have happened.
No one is to be blamed. She had also lost her only child. What she
needed at that moment was consolation and sympathy from the
husband. That is what he gave her. If everyone can look at life
with this kind of perspective, there would be much fewer problems
in the world. "A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single
step." Take off all your envies, jealousies, unforgiveness,
selfishness, and fears. And you will find things are actually not
as difficult as you think.
MORAL OF THE STORY
This story is really worth reading.
Sometimes we spend time in asking who is responsible or whom to
blame, whether in a relationship, in a job or with the people we
know. By this way we miss out some warmth in human
relationship.

SPOILER: As if it is so easy if at all possible
to remove the 5 mentioned things?
Btw... The husband said more than 5 words...
