Morale of the Story !!

A young lady was waiting for her flight in the boarding room 3 hours to take, As she would need to that long hours, she decided to buy a book to spend time with while she wait. She also bought a packet of cookies. She then sat down on an armchair, in the VIP boardingroom of the airport, to rest and read in peace......Beside the armchair where the packet of cookies lay, a man sat down in the next seat, opened his magazine and started reading. When she took out the first cookie, the man took one also....She felt irritated but said nothing....She just thought: “What a nerve! If I was in the mood I would punch him for daring!” For each cookie she took, the man took one too. This was infuriating her but she didn’t want to cause a scene. When only one cookie was left in the pack, she thought: “ah... What would this abusive man do now?” Then, the man, taking the last cookie, divided it into half, giving her one half. Ah! That was too much! She was much too angry now! In a huff, she insulted the man, took her book, her things and stormed out.. When she sat down in her seat, inside the plane, she looked into her bag to take her eyeglasses, and, to her surprise,....her packet of cookies was there, untouched, unopened! She felt so ashamed!! She realized that she was wrong... She had forgotten that her cookies were in her bag. The man had shared his cookies with her, without feeling angered or bitter.

...while she had been very angry, thinking that she was sharing her cookies with him. 

And now there was no chance to explain herself...nor to apologize.” 

There are 4 things that you cannot recover. 

The cake...

...after it's eaten! 

The word...

...after it’s said! 

The occasion...

... after the loss! 

The time...

...after it’s gone!

 

BE MINDFUL ALWAYS

Any guy will do the same, if the the person next to him is female.

The man is commendable he didn't say anything maybe because he felt violated but because of a good heart he didn't say anything & let the girl share his cookie...

Maybe he was about to start a conversation when he divided the last cookie, but the girl changed his mind by being rude.

i find the man strange. he didn't engage in a conversation with a girl that seemingly must be interested in him! a woman sat next to him and ate from his cookies, what is he waiting for? that she invites him for a coffee?

Nice, In general I try hard to examine the situation first before I speak but sometimes I can't help it...
