... working....
This is the story of four people named Everybody, Somebody, Anybody and Nobody.
There was an important job to be done and Everybody was asked to do it.
Anybody could have done it, but Nobody did.
Somebody was angry about that because it was Everybody's job.
Everybody thought that Anybody could do it, but Nobody realised that Somebody wouldn't do it.
It ended up that Everybody blamed Somebody when Nobody did what Anybody could have done.

and :
THE TRUE MEANING OF LIFE:
"We are visitors on this planet
We are here for ninety
Or one hundred years at the very most.
During that period,
We must try to do something good,
Something useful with our lives.
If you contribute to other people's happiness,
You will find the true goal,
The true meaning of life."
(HH. the 14th Dalai Lama)
and a prayer:
Help me to be
Cheerful when things go wrong;
Persevering when things are
Difficult; and serene when things
Are irritating.
Enable me to be
Helpful to those in difficulties;
Kind to those in need;
Sympathetic to those whose hearts
Are sore and sad.
and
Always ask a busy man when you want a job done well.
The others haven't the time.
The last one is particularly true...
