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 You either go to the ATM, or increase the amount to be withdrawn.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...

Harnessing the Power f words...

Have u ever noticed that during those times you were convinced something would go wrong, it usually did? “I’m going to mess this speech up; they’re not going to like me; I am not good enough.” On the other hand, in those times when you were convinced you couldn’t fail, things tended to go smoothly and successfully. “I can’t lose; I just know there is a connection; I have what it takes.” While we all have varying degrees of psychic knowing, these self-fulfilling prophecies have more to do with mindset than intuitive premonitions. ​ Negative self-talk comes in many forms. It may sound factual, “I won’t get the raise,” prudent, “If I try, I’ll fail,” or like a realistic observation, “I am all alone.” Negative self-talk hinders our healing, growth, evolution, and ascension, creating adverse outcomes for ourselves and our lives.   We all have an occasional dark cloud floating across our clear mental skies. However, it can’t rain every day! The more negative thoughts we have, the more ne...
