Light Bulb Wisdom of the wise man I

There was a young man going out of the village to the neighbouring village. As he reached the village lanmark stone, he spotted the wise old man meditating.

So he ask "Mr Senior, How long does it takes for me to get to the neighbouring village. The wise old man open up his eye and keep quiet. So the young man ask again "Mr Senior could you please tell me how long does it take for me to get to the neighbouring village?"

Once again, the wise old man kept quiet. The young man asked again with frustration "Please tell me how long does it take to get to the neighbouring village. I am in a hurry" However, the wise old man refused to answer.

This time the young man get really very angry and started to walk towords the neighbouring village. After 5 steps, suddenly, the wise old man answer, " Young man, it will take you about about 5 hours plus to 6 hours"

So, the young man get very curious and ask the wise old man "Why did you refuse to answer me the first 3 times?"

The wise old man answer " How do I know how long you will take if I do not know how fast you can walk? So how can I answer you before you started walking?"

So my friends, whenever you need to give advice to your friends please get to know their ability before you offer your advice to ensure that the advice you give will be a helpful one.

Love means nothing when its comes out from your mouth..

But it means everything when its comes from the heart..

I thought the man could save time by simply continuing walking rather then ask how long it would take =x

quite interesting

2 fall in love is always easy
2 start a relationship is always simple
2 build it, is always tough
2 maintain it, is better said than done
2 break off, is easier said than done
2 remain friends after u broke off, is never possible
2 forget the memories is always doing but never succeeding
2 heal the pain within is hard and tough and never near simple
but one has 2 try 2 heal your own heart
the heart belongs to u
memories will never be forgotten
the scar will never go
