A POUND OF BUTTER

There was a farmer who sold a pound of butter to the baker. One day the baker decided to weigh the butter to see if he was getting a pound and he found that he was not. This angered him and he took the farmer to court. The judge asked the farmer if he was using any measure. The farmer replied, amour Honor, I am primitive. I don’t have a proper measure, but I do have a scale.” The judge asked, “Then how do you weigh the butter?” The farmer replied “Your Honor, long before the baker started buying butter from me, I have been buying a pound loaf of bread from him. Every day when the baker brings the bread, I put it on the scale and give him the same weight in butter. If anyone is to be blamed, it is the baker.”

What is the moral of the story?

” We get back in life what we give to others.”

Whenever you take an action, ask yourself this question: Am I giving fair value for the wages or money I hope to make? Honesty and dishonesty become a habit. Some people practice dishonesty and can lie with a straight face. Others lie so much that they don’t even know what the truth is anymore. But who are they deceiving? Themselves.

Turia Pitt,Inspirational story ,Quotes – Inspirational Quotes, Pictures and Motivational ThoughtsMeet Turia Pitt, this is an extraordinary woman you should know.

Less than three years ago doctors said the ultra-marathon runner wouldn’t live to see another day after she was caught in a bush fire and suffered burns to 65% of her body.

Turia spent 864 days in hospital, went through over a 100 surgeries and had fingers amputated. Then the woman who ran marathons had to learn to walk again.

Turia is amazing, in the past six months alone she rode her bike from Sydney to Uluru, swam a 20 kilometre race in Western Australia and walked the Great Wall of China.

Turia is the ultimate survivor, and we wish more magazines would be brave enough to put her, and other people like her that truly inspire, on their covers.
