Funny Side of Inspiration: Everyone is Right
Friday, December 29, 2006
From last few days, I was thinking of creating a section of funny and interesting tales, and share it with all of you. We know that ‘Laughter is the best medicine’ and it makes us light-hearted. This is a short story, and again it was a gift from my grand mom. It is about an interesting guy called Naseeruddin Hodja. I am sure you will enjoy it.
The story
One day when Naseeruddin Hodja was resting at his home with his family, one of his neighbours came to him with a complaint and it was against another neighbour.
So, Hodja comforted his neighbour and listened to his complaints carefully. After the neighbour has finished Hodja said to him, “Yes I agree with you, you are right.”
Then, a second neighbour came to Hodja with a similar complaint and it was against the first neighbour. So, this time Hodja did the same. He comforted the second neighbour and listened to his complaints carefully. After the neighbour has finished Hodja said to him, “Yes I agree with you, you are right.”
Hodja’s wife listened what Hodja has said to both neighbours, and she became confused. When the second neighbour has left, she said to Hodja, “Both men cannot be right”.
Then, Hodja replied to his wife in a loving tone, “Yes dear, I agree with you, you are right.”
