Surprises...


This web site harbors a few gems and surprises. This page contains a little surprise.


Perspective



There's a man who has 87 cents and two kids. One is ill and needs medication. 87 cents are not enough to buy the medication and the man is very unhappy. Someone who sees the man's unhappiness and has never known anyone to have 87 cents concludes that the 87 cents must be the source of the man's unhappiness and takes them away.

(In case you didn't get it, this of course means the man now also is unable to buy a loaf of bread for his children.)







Cooked up at the end of September or the start of October in 2009

Background
So many things are a matter of perspective and maybe the best thing a person can do is to develop the ability to look at things from all possible angles, not just his or her own.
