Tale of Mr. Zavere Poonawala & Ganga Datt

Mr. Zavere Poonawala, a well-known Parsee industrialist in Pune had a driver named Ganga Datt with him for 30 years driving his limousine, which was originally owned by Acharya Rajneesh.

 Mr. Poonawala was in Mumbai for some important work recently, while in Pune Ganga Datt passed away.

As soon as the news reached Mr. Poonawala, he cancelled all his meetings, requested the deceased's family to await him for the cremation , he reached Pune .

He got the limo decorated and requested Ganga Datt's family to allow Ganga Datt to be taken in the Limo that he had driven wherein  Mr. Poonawala himself drove Ganga Datt on his last journey.
He said ...
Everybody earns money which is nothing unusual in that, but we should always be grateful to those people who contribute to our success. This is the belief, we have been brought up with, which made me do, what I did”.

Growth is never by mere chance; it is the result of forces working together.

Why are zero scores in tennis called 'love'?

BECAUSE :
In France , where tennis became popular, the round zero on the scoreboard looked like an egg and was called 'l'oeuf,' which is French for 'an egg.' When tennis was introduced in the US , the Americans (mis)pronounced it ;)
as ...
'LOVE'

Innocence

A four year old kid kept telling excitedly to his teacher about his baby sister who was going to be born.
One day his mom made him feel the baby's movements by placing his palm on her stomach. The kid appeared serious and didn't say anything.

From that day onwards he stopped telling his teacher about his baby sister. Out of curiosity one day his teacher checked about his baby sister, the boy's eyes were filled with tears. He replied. My Mummy ate it!

What you want to convey and what gets conveyed may be very different – be sensitive. Innocent turn of events….

Dedicated to all daughters

A couple made a deal the night of their Marriage to NOT open the door of their room to anybody who comes knocking in the morning for any reason!In the morning the parents of the husband came & knocked on the door, the husband & the wife were looking at each other & as they agreed before, they didn't open the door.

After a while the parents of the bride came knocking at the door to check on them, the couple were looking at each other, then the bride dropped a tear & started crying she said: "I cannot keep them knocking & not open the door, I miss them already"

The husband didn't say anything & he let her open the door for her parents.

Years & years passed & the couple had 5 children, the first ones were boys & the 5th was a little girl, when she was born the father was extremely happy that Almighty blessed him with her, & he threw a huge party for her in grand style, people were so amazed with his joy & his happiness that they asked him, why are you so happy with her more than you were before with her older brothers?

He answered simply: "She is the one who will open the door for me"

Baby girls are the comfort of the eyes of their father!  They hold the key to their mothers hearts!
Daughters are really unique.   They care for their parents even after they are married.

Its rightly said, "A son is a son till he gets a Wife, a daughter is a daughter all her Life!"
