3 PARROTS

A man wanted to buy his son a parrot as a birthday present.
The next day he went to the pet shop and saw three identical parrots in a cage.
He asked the clerk, "how much for the parrot on the right?
The owner said it was Rs. 2500.
“Rs. 2500.”, the man said. "Well what does he do?
“He knows how to use all of the functions of Microsoft Office 2000, responds the clerk.
“He can do all of your spreadsheets and type all of your letters.”
The man then asked what the second parrot cost.
The clerk replied, Rs. 5000, but he not only knows Office 2000,
but is an expert computer programmer.

Finally, the man inquired about the cost of the last parrot.
The clerk replied, “Rs. 10,000.”
Curious as to how a bird can cost Rs. 10,000, the man asked what this bird’s specialty was.
The clerk replies, "Well to be honest I haven’t seen him do anything.

But the other two call him " BOSS"!!

To Risk

To laugh is to risk appearing a fool.
To weep is to risk appearing sentimental.
To reach out to another is to risk involvement.
To expose feelings is to risk exposing your true self.
To place your ideas and dreams before a crowd is to risk their loss.
To love is to risk not being loved in return.
To hope is to risk pain.
To try is to risk failure.
But risks must be taken, because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing.

Mujhe Mobile bana dena

वह प्राइमरी स्कूल की टीचर थी |

सुबह उसने बच्चो का टेस्ट लिया था

और उनकी कॉपिया जाचने के लिए

घर ले आई थी | बच्चो की कॉपिया

देखते देखते उसके आंसू बहने लगे | उसका पति वही लेटे mobile देख रहा था |

उसने रोने का कारण पूछा ।

टीचर बोली , “सुबह मैंने बच्चो को

‘मेरी सबसे बड़ी ख्वाइश’ विषय पर कुछ

पंक्तिया लिखने को कहा था ; एक बच्चे

ने इच्छा जाहिर करी है की भगवन उसे

Mobile बना दे |

यह सुनकर पतिदेव हंसने लगे |

टीचर बोली , “आगे तो सुनो बच्चे ने

लिखा है यदि मै mobile बन जाऊंगा, तो

घर में मेरी एक खास जगह होगी और

सारा परिवार मेरे इर्द-गिर्द रहेगा |

जब मै बोलूँगा, तो सारे लोग मुझे ध्यान

से सुनेंगे | मुझे रोका टोका नहीं जायेंगा

और नहीं उल्टे सवाल होंगे |

जब मै mobile बनूंगा, तो पापा ऑफिस से

आने के बाद थके होने के बावजूद मेरे

साथ बैठेंगे | मम्मी को जब तनाव होगा,

तो वे मुझे डाटेंगी नहीं, बल्कि मेरे साथ

रहना चाहेंगी | मेरे बड़े भाई-बहनों के

बीच मेरे पास रहने के लिए झगडा होगा |

यहाँ तक की जब mobile बंद रहेंगा, तब भी

उसकी अच्छी तरह देखभाल होंगी |

और हा, mobile  के रूप में मै सबको  ख़ुशी

भी दे सकूँगा | “

यह सब सुनने के बाद पति भी थोड़ा

गंभीर होते हुए बोला ,

‘हे भगवान ! बेचारा बच्चा …. उसके

माँ-बाप तो उस पर जरा भी ध्यान नहीं

देते !’

टीचर पत्नी ने आंसूं भरी आँखों से

उसकी तरफ देखा और बोली,

“जानते हो, यह बच्चा कौन है? ………………………हमारा अपना बच्चा……

.. हमारा छोटू |”

सोचिये, यह छोटू कही आपका बच्चा

तो नहीं ।

मित्रों , आज की भाग-दौड़ भरी ज़िन्दगी

में हमें वैसे ही एक दूसरे के लिए कम

वक़्त मिलता है , और अगर हम वो भी

सिर्फ टीवी देखने , मोबाइल पर

खेलने और फेसबुक से चिपके रहने में

गँवा देंगे तो हम कभी अपने रिश्तों की

अहमियत और उससे मिलने वाले प्यार

को नहीं समझ पायेंगे।

Moral : Please spare some of your valuable time for your FAMILY.
