Moral of the Story

Not sure if it's already been post or not, but here goes...

An elderly man in Mumbai calls his son in New York and says,

'I hate to ruin your day son, but I have to tell you that your mother and I are getting a divorce; 35 years of marriage... and that much misery is enough!'

'Dad, what are you talking about?' the son screams.

'We can't stand the sight of each other any longer,' the old man says.

'We're sick of each other, and I'm sick of talking about this, so you call your sister in Hong Kong and tell her!'

Frantic, the son calls his sister, who explodes on the phone.

'Like heck they're getting divorced,' she shouts, 'I'll take care of this.'

She calls Mumbai immediately, and screams at the old man, 'You are not getting divorced. Don't do a single thing until I get there. I'm calling my brother back, and we'll both be there tomorrow. Until then , don't do a thing, DO YOU HEAR??' and she hangs up.

The old man hangs up his phone and turns to his wife.. 'Okay', he says, 'It's all set. They're both coming for our anniversary and paying their own airfare!!'

MORAL:

No man / woman is busy in this world all 365 days.

The sky is not going to fall down if you take few days LEAVE and meet your dear ones.

OFFICE WORK IS NOT EVERYTHING IN LIFE and MONEY MAKING IS NOT EVERYTHING IN LIFE.

1).Dont belive whom ever what they say, you investigate yourself and take decision accordingly.

2).RELATIONSHIP ALSO DEPENDS ON MONEY.

3).EVERYBODY HAVE THEIR OWN STOMACH.

4).PARENTAL AFFECTION HAS NO VALUE WHEN OLD.

5).DAUGHTERS ARE THE DECIDING AUTHORITY.

6).OLD IS GOLD

7).TELLING LIES FOR GOOD IS NOT A SIN

8).RESPECT OLD AGE PARENTS WISHES

9).DIVERCE IS NOT A SOLUTION

10).lOVE PARENTS.

Mother: They can't make it honey

Father: I have an idea, trust me

Son: Hmmm, I can't comment I need my sister (run out of money I know she will buy me ticket)

Daughter: I can handle this! (Counting how much will it cost together with her brother)

Father: I can't believe it they are coming..

Mother: Don't be so sure, your daughter is as smarter than you...

"learn to let go of the things you are afraid to loose....

because you might get a better one."

An alternative moral.

Stay out of business that is not your own, or you may end up in a situation that you don't want.

I would have said the moral of the story is that you're never smarter then your parents.
