RESPECT THE “NO”

Once, a bird searched for a home to lay her eggs and shelter in the rainy season.
In her search, she saw two trees, and she went to ask for protection.

When she asked the first tree, it refused to give her shelter. With disappointment, she went to the second. And the second tree agreed.

She made her home and laid her eggs, and then the rainy season arrived.
The rain was so heavy that the first tree fell and was carried away by the flood.

The bird saw this and, in a taunting way, said: ”See, this is your karma, you didn’t offer me shelter, and now God has given you the punishment.”

The tree smiled for the last time and said :”I knew I’m not going to survive this rainy season. That’s why I refused you. I didn’t want to risk your and your children’s lives.“

The bird had tears as she now knew why she and the kids were alive !

Learning :

1. We should not always consider someone’s “NO” as their arrogance

2. You don’t know the whole picture.

3. Respect others’ decision whether it is in your favor or not.

5. We get so involved in our problems that we forget to view the other person’s point.

5. Without even trying to understand the motive, we make our judgments.

6. We should never judge others by their “No” because we don’t know their story.

7. You don’t know what good is hidden for you behind it.

Always RESPECT THE “NO.”
Pause, and think about it deeply before you pass any judgments about it in your mind.
