Rain, pouring from the sky!
From your lips
Just one smile,
Will bring
Laughter, echoing for a mile!

Poor beggar
His eyes are closing…closing…closed!
He is asleep now, fast asleep.
Him – no one can goad;
For he is in a world, too deep.
He lies on a carpet, dirty and small
It serves him now, as a bed
His chest does not rise, or fall;
For he is dead!

About honesty
You buy, say,about seventy sen’s worth of goods, give the shopkeeper a one ringgit note and start walking away, in the pretense that you have forgotten about the change of thirty sen. The shopkeeper, unhesitatingly calls after you and returns you the change. You, of course, accept it with a sheepish grin and a big, “Thank you”.
On another day, you shop another seventy sen’s worth of goods. This time you give the shopkeeper a ten ringgit note and walk away without the change. Only this time the shopkeeper doesn’t call after you. He, in fact, waits anxiously for you to disappear from sight. Where has the honesty gone? Well, thirty sen is one thing, but an easy nine ringgit and thirty sen is another thing altogether! Such is the honesty of the world.
Then, there is the case of a boy who wrote to world leaders to stop all wars and treaties at all cost because the history books were getting thicker!

Before marriage, “My life is empty without you.”
After marriage, “ My life is empty with you.”
There is uncertainty of God rewarding those who do good. But there is one thing you can never doubt. Those who sin are punished, surely.

Optician: Ma’am, how many birds can you see over there?
The lady: Well, let me see now, ..one..er..two…er..three…four! Am I right?
Optician: No, ma’am.You are wrong. There aren’t any.
You can kill more than two birds with one stone, too, if you choose a bigger stone and there are more birds in the bush. It is the same with life: you will receive more success with greater effort.
Optician: Sir, can you see the poster on that wall?
Man with poor eyesight: Wall? What wall?

Man on seeing the beggar to whom he had given a ringgit earlier, coming out from a bar:
I thought I told you not to drink whisky with the money I gave you!
The beggar: No, sir. It was brandy!”
Once the mouth said to the ear, ”You know what,” it boasted, “I am the most active organ on the head. I talk, yell, cry, laugh, whisper, whistle, jeer, sing, drawl, whoop, yelp, scream……..”
“Yeah, yeah,” cut in the ear, “but without me they are of no use.”

Of happiness
One who pretends to be happy can never be as happy as the one who pretends to be sad.
Happiness comes naturally to the poor. To the rich, it is forced every hour.
The happiness of the poor is real, natural and lasting for the while it lasts. That, of the men of riches, is merely temporary and of pretense.
The happiness of the wealthy comes from the feeling of pride; pride of possession of properties, of status. Hence, to them pride is happiness. To the man in want, happiness is happiness.
