ONCE a professor asked his students :" Why do we shout in anger ? Why do people shout at each other when they are upset ?" The students thought for a while before one of them said :" We shout because we lose our calm ."
"But why shout when the other person is just next to you ? Isn't it possible to speak to him or her with a soft voice ?"
The students gave various answers , none of which satisfied the professor .
Finally he explained :" When two people are angry with each other , their hearts distance . To cover that distance they must shout to be able to hear each other . The angrier they are , the louder they will have to shout to hear each other through the great distance ."
Then he asked :" What happens when two people fall in love ? They don't shout at each other but talk softly . Why ? Because their hearts are very close . The distance between them is very small .
"When they love each other even more , what happens? They do not speak - they only whisper and get closer to each other in their love .
"Finally they do not even need to whisper . They only look at each other , that's all . That is how close two people are when they love each other ."
So ,when you argue , do not let your hearts get distant or say words that distance each other even more , or there may come a day when the distance is so great you will not find the path back to each other .
p/s : this tale is certainly a nice one coz it is so true and based on facts . Read these stories on THE START newspaper.:)
