Story Time....!

This is one of my favourite story. I read this in Shivkhera's book "You Can Win". Enjoy reading this. If we all think like this little kid, we will surely have a great life. Show consideration and have a caring attitude... Now lets go to the story...
One day a ten year-old boy went to an ice cream shop, sat at a table and asked the waitress, "How much is an ice-cream cone?" She said, "seventy-five cents". The boy started counting the coins he had in his hand. Then he asked how much a small cup of ice-cream was. The waitress impatiently replied, "sixty-five cents". The boy said, "I will have the small ice-cream cup". He had his ice-cream, paid the bill and left. When the waitress came to pick up the empty plate, she was touched. Underneath were ten one-cent coins as tip. The little boy had consideration for the waitress before he ordered his ice-cream. He showed sensitivity and caring. He thought of others before himself.

Nice story. I like the positive outlook in this blog.

Do you know that Shiv Khera has started a political party?

How can you say that? The boy could have...

a)Been told that God would punish him if he did not give any tips as giving tips was a law

b)The boy wanted to act all grown up and was merely imitating his father or some other elder when he saw them paying the bill

explanation b) seems to be more plausible..
