Senior Citizen

An old lady goes to her bank and presents a cheque for Rs 1000/- to the cashier.

Cashier: Dadi ji, you should withdraw such small amounts from the ATM outside. Don't waste a cheque leaf and my time.

Old lady: What's the problem with giving me Rs 1000/- cash?

Cashier: Sorry Dadi ji, can't be done. You either go to the ATM, or increase the amount to be withdrawn.

Old lady: Okay, I want to withdraw all money in my account, keeping a minimum mandatory balance.

The cashier checks her account balance and finds it to be  Rs 10 lakhs 10 Thousand.

Old lady: How much can you give me right now?

Cashier: (checks the bank's cash balance) Dadi ji, I can give you Rs 10 lakhs straight away.

The old lady tears off the earlier cheque of Rs 1000/-, writes a new one for Rs 10 lakhs and hands it to the cashier.

While the young girl is gone to the vault to get the cash, the old lady grabs a cash deposit slip from the public shelf and fills it up.

The young girl returns with the cash, meticulously counts out Rs 10 lakhs, gives it to the old lady and says_ "there you are, Dadi ji. Now you will have to carry this pile home on your own. But count your money before leaving the counter. I won't entertain any complaint later."

The old lady picks out two notes of Rs 500/- from the pile, puts them in her purse and says_ "I trust you, beta, I don't need to count. Now, here's a cash deposit slip. Please deposit Rs 9,99,000/- into my account and give me the stamped and signed counterfoil. And yes, count the cash in my presence."

Moral of the story: 
Don't mess with senior citizens!

Here’s to the wild ones. Here’s to you...

Here’s to the fallen, the broken and the shattered.  To the warriors who know that to be cracked is to let the light in deeper.  Who know that the best fruit is on the very tip of the branch and the brightest jewels are hidden within the roughest of surfaces. Here’s to the ones intoxicated by the burning of the winds of change in their lungs and who live in the lands that others fear to tread. Here’s to the ones who raise their voices to the heavens even though they don’t always know the words. Here’s to the rare beings who walk the road less travelled, taking the adventure that rises on this path with purpose and passion. Here’s to the rebels, the heartsick originals, and the bittersweet loneliness that fuels their spirit.  To the ones who won’t conform, back down or step aside.  To the ones who were not born to fit in but to gloriously stand out.  To those who are here to be midwives of the genuine. Here’s to the awakened ones whose purpose is to f...

6 situations in a relationship when it’s worth lying

  Sometimes lying. In some cases, lying can help you cheer up your partner or even may save your life. 1. When you leave an aggressive partner. If you have decided to get out of a destructive relationship and you’re preparing to step back, you’re free to lie. Your main task is to draw his attention to save money, to gather your things, to make contacts with people who will help you get out of this relation. The aggressor’s reaction is unpredictable if he understands that the victim is escaping. Therefore, it is better to stay alive and healthy than fair and honest. #2. When the partner asks, “Have you ever loved someone more than you love me?” If you have not previously agreed on absolute honesty, then answer “no”. Let’s admit that there was a stronger feeling in your life than the current one. Who will feel better if you tell the truth? #3. When you make a surprise Usually, the man who a surprise is being prepared may open his third eye and also the ability to see through the wall...

Approval...

I learned a long time that if you don’t fit into what people expect you to be, they don’t usually like you... and that’s fine by me. I’m not looking for approval or acceptance of the person that I am- I love the person that I’ve worked hard to become..every scar, scratch and flaw I have is original and earned- they all tell my story. That’s the thing: I’m not asking anyone to understand me, because there’s days that I don’t even understand myself. So, when they say I’ve changed or there’s something different about me..that’s not true at all. I just decided to stop hiding all the things I knew everyone wouldn’t like, understand or approve of. It took me a lot of soul searching and mustering up of my courage, but I couldn’t keep living under a pretense of what I wasn’t anymore. I’m going to shine with all of my true colors and people will still decide what to make of me, but I don’t care what anyone thinks of me, now or ever. It’s better to die an original than live as a fake...
