This story (actually a forked version of what I had read few years ago, sorry don’t remember the source) was liked a lot on google buzz, thought to share on my blog as well:


On some weird day, a scientist Dr. X puts 5 monkeys in a cage. And, he attaches some of bananas at the ceiling of the cage. Now, whenever any monkey jumps for the bananas, Dr. X throws super hot/cold water on all of the monkeys. So after sometime, the monkeys understood the fact that if they don’t jump to grab the bananas, Dr. X won’t torture them with hot/cold water.


Then, Dr. X replaces one of the monkeys with a new monkey. As the new one did not know anything about the torture, seeing the bunch of bananas hanging at the ceiling of the cage, first he mocks the rest of the monkeys being too lazy as he wonder why none of them are going after the bananas and then jumps to grab them all for himself. Meanwhile, Dr. X decides to stop throwing water at them. But, anyway it made the old monkeys angry so they beat the crap out of the new one, until the new one understands that there is something wrong with reaching for the bananas.


Then again, Dr. X replaces one of the original old monkeys with another new monkey. And the same thing happens, but this time, the 1st new monkey joins the old/original monkeys and beat the crap out of the 2nd new monkey just for fun, remember that he (the 1st new monkey) does not know the reason why the older monkeys were doing that


Eventually, Dr. X replaces all the old/original monkeys, one by one, with new ones. By now, the cage has 5 new monkeys none of which are the original ones. The scenario now is that whenever any of them jumps to reach for the bananas, others beat the crap out of the *jumper* and none of them know why they are doing that.

Moral: There are a lot of things in life we do and we don’t know why we are doing them. So, it’s up to us, would we continue to do them or question them and use our brain; make our own lives

The woman in your life…very well expressed


Tomorrow you may get a working woman, but you should marry her with these facts as well.


Here is a girl, who is as much educated as you are; Who is earning almost as much as you do;


One, who has dreams and aspirations just as you have because she is as human as you are;


One, who has never entered the kitchen in her life just like you or your Sister haven’t, as she was busy in studies and competing in a system that gives no special concession to girls for their culinary achievements


One, who has lived and loved her parents & brothers & sisters, almost as much as you do for 20-25 years of her life; One, who has bravely agreed to leave behind all that, her home, people who love her, to adopt your home, your family, your ways and even your family ,name


One, who is somehow expected to be a master-chef from day #1, while you sleep oblivious to her predicament in her new circumstances, environment and that kitchen


One, who is expected to make the tea, first thing in the morning and cook food at the end of the day, even if she is as tired as you are, maybe more, and yet never ever expected to complain; to be a servant, a cook, a mother, a wife, even if she doesn’t want to; and is learning just like you are as to what you want from her; and is clumsy and sloppy at times and knows that you won’t like it if she is too demanding, or if she learns faster than you;


One, who has her own set of friends, and that includes boys and even men at her workplace too, those, who she knows from school days and yet is willing to put all that on the back-burners to avoid your irrational jealousy, unnecessary competition and your inherent insecurities;


Yes, she can drink and dance just as well as you can, but won’t, simply Because you won’t like it, even though you say otherwise


One, who can be late from work once in a while when deadlines, just like yours, are to be met;


One, who is doing her level best and wants to make this most important, relationship in her entire life a grand success, if you just help her some and trust her;


One, who just wants one thing from you, as you are the only one she knows in your entire house – your unstinted support, your sensitivities and most importantly – your understanding, or love, if you may call it.


But not many guys understand this……


Please appreciate “HER”


Send this to all girls to make their day and to all guys who can handle it.
