I came across this meaningful story and earnestly believe that what we get is a result of what we give !



A man and his son were walking in the forest. Suddenly, the boy trips and feels a sharp pain and screams, "Ahhhhh."



Surprised, he hears a voice coming from the mountain, "Ahhhhh!"



Filled with curiosity, he screams: "Who are you?", but the only answer he receives is: "Who are you?"



This makes him angry, so he screams: "You are a coward!", and the voice answers: "You are a coward!"



He looks at his father, asking, "Dad, what is going on?"



"Son", the man replies, "pay attention!" Then he screams, "I admire you!"



The voice answers: "I admire you!"



The father shouts, "You are wonderful!" and the voice answers: "You are wonderful!"



The boy is surprised, but still does not understand what is going on.



Then the father explains, "People call this an 'ECHO', but truly it is

'LIFE!' Life always gives you back what you give out! Life is a mirror of your actions. If you want more kindness, give more kindness! If you want understanding and respect. give understanding and respect! If you want people to be patient and respectful to you, give patience and respect!



Dissemination of knowledge through innovative teaching methods, industry interface, and creating a global mindset in the students goes a long way in shaping the young minds , and the reflection is a highly satisfied corporate , professor ,society and the student himself. Attitude, Skill and Knowledge instilled in the youth is bound to reflect in a better and productive economy. Prosperity of the nation is truly reflection of education!



Your life is not a coincidence, but a mirror of your own doings.

Hey Hi Rahul,

Thank you for the post !

This is a very wonderful and inspiring post.

But when I personally look into ma life, I do not find this thing happening...

As I hv alws been good to people n hv alws done good to them without any expectation n in turn ma frens only have done wrong to me so I just wan to say that gone are the days wen such things use to happen that " Life always gives you back what you give out! " bt nt now.

I though agree that it happens bt it happens at a very low level.

The greatest example I can quote is of Terrorist or say Exploited Ministers, I dnt see life giving them thrash as everyday I see them rising only.

So why I say gone are the days when such things happened what we can say is We are in KALYUG.............

Request you nt to take ma wrds by heart as its jst my personal opinion.

Warm regards,
Priyanka Singh

I strongly believe that the most beautiful moments in my life, the most treasured ones are those when I gave something, when I've been able to do something good for someone, even if it was only a small gesture.

True altruism is when you give because you feel happier this way, not when you give expecting something in return or waiting for a praise or a reward.

If by giving you felt pleased, peaceful in your consciousness than this is the real reward you allow yourself to receive. You can look to yourself in the mirror and feel good about yourself. You are able to go to sleep knowing that you haven't turned away from someone who needed a moment of your time, a friendly advice, a piece of your knowledge, a helping hand or just your presence...

Priyanka, never feel disappointed because someone didn't understood your gesture and didn't behave in consequence...you know you did what your consciousness, what your mind and soul told you to do...feel happy about it, feel pleased you've done your share. Some time, someone will really know how to appreciate it and respond in the same manner, learning form you, from your example.

I remember reading this nice fable of a story in my earlier days. It is true that U reap what U sow,But some people can reciprocate hatred even if they had received goodness and warmth.

"You can have everything in life that u want, if you just give enough other people what they want.........."

So here I agree with Rahul n Claudia and will try to develop the positive attitude towards life.

Though i dont expect anything from anyone but still..........

Warm regards,
Priyanka Singh

Thank you for the lovely Post Rahul !!

I believe with the quote “Love is Life”. Many of us love each other expecting to get it in return but it makes more meaning and sense if we love others without expecting anything from them.

As Priyanka said yes, we are in kaliyug but if we actually think about it and ask ourselves why we are facing such situations, the answer will be something like this that ..”We are the reason for our surroundings”

In simple terms it is -“What you sow so you reap”

Many of us feel rejected if not loved back but as Claudia said it really leaves a happiness within oneself if have a clear conscious that someone is helped out through us.

What happens if we are not appreciated from whom we expect to get.

Never knows where Life takes us but for sure there will be some one who will adore and respect you and if still if that doesn’t happen..Chill :)

God is there then why to worry, he’ll take care of the rest :)

LIVE AND LET OTHERS LIVE..TRY TO MAKE LIFE PEACABLE RATHER THAN MESSING IT.ITS ALL IN OUR HANDS HOW WE MOULD IT.
