shall share a story which is told by my teacher. i tink its quite a meaningful one.

A woman arrived at the airport earlier before the expected time of her flight. so she went to buy a book to read to pass time. as she passed a cookie shop, she decided to buy some and munch as she reads.
she found herself a good seat n settle down to start reading. and the bag of cookies placed beside her, n beside the cookie was a man, also waiting for his flight's departure time.
she reached out for the 1st piece of cookies. she noticed that the man also took a piece and started eating. she took a second one and realise the man reached out for another one too.
she realise that whenever she had one, the man took one too. she was infuriated. finally, it came to the last piece. she wonders what that man would do. finally the man took it and break it into half and gave 1 half to her. she couldn't stand it anymore. she scolded him and stormed off to board the plane.
on the plane, she wanted to rest. so she opened her handbag to find her eye mask to cover. to her horror, she found her bag of cookies in her bag, unopened n realised she had left them in her bag all the while!
she felt ashamed of herself suddenly.. that man shared his cookies with her, and did not mind halfing his last piece to give her but she blamed him for eating hers.
she wanted to offer her sincere apologies to him, but its too late...

words spoken cant be retracted, so think carefully before speaking, be it intentionally or accidentally lest it hurts somebody.
