Monkey Mind

I read a fuuny but thought provoking story . There was a zoo where the zookeeper fed the monkeys with 10 peanuts in the morning and 4 peanuts in the evening per monkey-head. It seemed the monkeys were disgruntled because they were given much less peanuts in the evening munch-time! There was a meeting between them and the zookeeper about this quantiy discrimination issue. Next day the zookeeper gave the monkeys 4 in the morning and 10 in the evening. The monkeys were glad their quota was increased in the evening though they would oneday fight for more nuts in the morning. Our minds too are akin to these revolting monkeys, always claiming more, protesting without satisfaction, demanding unreasonably. But nature knows her economy of things.

Even that is boring!

A few of us friends were chatti.g idly on a sunday.After exhausting all tpoics, the talk became pretty boring. I asked themto avoid boring topics and start some lively subject. Aftsr a pause, someone broached the topic of his well , water problems, bore the well etc..I quipped: its again " boring "!

Better it was lost!

My wife"s sister, who also happens to be my sisterinlaw ( just joking!) Reported an incident .it seems her hubby lost his purse on the way to office. Fortunatdly someone picked it ip and was honest enough to find out the address to handover it. Looks like a serious anecdote? Wait...as Mr.Honesty handed over the missing purse containing 123 Rs, the jubiliant hubby honoured his act with a sweet pocket ( Rs.78..) ,a wall clock gift ( Rs . 70 ) and to and fro auto fare ( From perambur to saidapet..Rs. 420 ) all amounting to a total of Rs.568! Better the purse be ,once lost, alwys lost, sobbed my sisterinlaw¡

Idly...

My daughter once ran to me asking whether Americans liked our Tamilnadu special eating stuff, Idli. Wondering ,i asked her why such a question. She showed me a book, telling me its wfitten here that even Kennedy ate idli. I looked at the print which read: kennedy sat back in his chair and started eating idly...(leisurely!).
