A man came home from work late, tired and irritated, to find his 5-year-old son waiting for him at the door...

Son: "Daddy, may I ask you a question"

Daddy: "Yeah sure, what it is?"

Son: "Dad, how much do you make an hour"

Daddy: "That's none of your business. Why do you ask such a thing?"

Son: "I just want to know. Please tell me, how much do you make an hour?"

Daddy: "I make Rs. 500 an hour"

"Oh", the little boy replied, with his head down.

Looking up, he said, "Dad, may I please borrow Rs. 300?"

The father was furious,
"if the only reason you asked that is so you can borrow some money
to buy a silly toy or other nonsense, then march yourself to your room and go to bed.
Think why you are being so selfish. I work hard everyday for such this childish behavior"

The little boy quietly went to his room and shut the door.

The man sat down and started to get even angrier about the little boy's questions.

How dare he ask such questions only to get some money?

After about an hour or so, the man had calmed down,
and started to think:

"May be there was something he really needed to buy with that Rs. 300 and he really didn't ask for money very often!"

The man went to the door of little boy's room and opened the door.
"Are you asleep, son?" He asked.
"No daddy, I'm awake," replied the boy.

"I've been thinking, may be I was too hard on you earlier", said the man,
"It's been a long day and I took out my aggravation on you.
Here's the Rs.300 you asked for"

The little boy sat straight up, smiling "oh thank you dad!" He yelled.

Then, reaching under his pillow he pulled some crippled up notes.
The man, seeing that the boy already had money, started to get angry again.

The little boy slowly counted out his money, then looked up at his father.

"Why do you want money if you already had some?" the father grumbled.
"Because I didn't have enough, but now I do," the little boy replied.
"Daddy I have Rs. 500 now. Can I buy an hour of your time?
Please come home early tomorrow. I would like to have dinner with you"

If thre is a god , and he is a creator, and we - each one of us has a part of him.
Then - this means that we are creators as well.
Then - this means that we are gods as well.
Then - if we are a part of one - the god , so - we are one aswell.
Then - if he is created everything around us - so -we are a part of it too.
Then - if we damage by anyway - with deeds , with work , woth fealing , with imaination something , then - we damage us.

We shall not pray to him , becouse we are him and his almight.
We shall spend our life in creating , of upgrading creations, of helping creations.

P.S. - the idea is besed on truly stoy - Our story.

Think abou it :
We have a whole new space unexplored to explore , but we are still here , on earth - fighting for pieces of ground , that we cal our - yes it's Our , and if we are one and same - why we fighting for ?
If there is possiblilty of paralel universes - acording to new phisics researches - what the hell we do with our days ?

i asked do you fit your lives into your dreams or do you alter you life because or through the power of dreams,my take on this question because of the experiences i have had with dreams, ican go and dream about what i wish if i have a problem, ican say to my self i will sort that out when im asleep, the solution to the problem as never not presented itself to me, thats not the same as interpretating those semiotics within the dream to arrive at a answer to fit the situation. is any one able to do this, i dont believe for a minute that i am alone with this ability.

How many of the germans before and during WW2 believed in what they were being told by the Nazis? You only have to see the latest movies to know that "film" or "digital film" technology has moved on since then. I think most would now say that germans films of that era show misguided adoring Germans listening to their leaders.

There are a lot of comments in this site about not believing the arabs/zionist/US/UK/pres/muslims/christians/jews..... or just about anything they dont like without offering cogent arguments..

Is it possible that we are not being told the whole truth or only allowed to see selected portions of it? Or are "we" just stupid and just stopped thinking for ourselves?

In sci-fi shows which involve the main characters travelling back into their own pasts, protagonists are often warned that touching their past selves will cause a paradox (for example, in the Doctor Who episode 'Father's Day'). If you accept that being part of your own timeline is possible without causing a paradox, why does the act of two versions of yourself from two different times touching cause one?

Being born means coming into reality, a harsh world of many things we must deal with. We find things that help us deal with life. The choice of death scares us. Simply not being born would mean the latter, of not death or life just simply non-existing

The purpose of life, did we simply get these purposes from society? and the world we live in? did we learn them from the media? These are purposes man made up. I'm sure the meaning of life had different meanings throughout time. However the true one should never be able to change.

Last night one of my questions got removed for the violation of rules. It was no question, just a simple message, I have no qualms about it. But, it had inspired some of the most beautiful answers I have read until now on Yahoo Answers.

You don't always need questions to arouse responses. Even a word or statement may lead to some fabulous insight into what others have to share on a particular situation.

So, is it better to ask questions like "How???" or "Ye???" and get three dozen answers such as "nope", "yup" or "maybe", or is it ok to be crucified for having got conveyed and shared some beautiful ideas?

How far do you think I was wrong in choosing the latter?
