The live´s year

A worried woman went to her gynecologist and said:

'Doctor, I have a serious problem and desperately need your help! My baby is not even 1 year old and I'm pregnant again. I don't want kids so close together.'

So the doctor said: 'Ok and what do you want me to do?'

She said: 'I want you to end my pregnancy, and I'm counting on your help with this.'

The doctor thought for a little, and after some silence he said to the lady: 'I think I have a better solution for your problem. It's less dangerous for you too.'

She smiled, thinking that the doctor was going to accept her request.

Then he continued: 'You see, in order for you not to have to take care of 2 babies at the same time, let's kill the one in your arms. This way, you could rest some before the other one is born. If we're going to kill one of them, it doesn't matter which one it is. There would be no risk for your body if you chose the one in your arms.'

The lady was horrified and said: 'No doctor! How terrible! It's a crime to kill a child!'

'I agree', the doctor replied. 'But you seemed to be OK with it, so I thought maybe that was the best solution.'

The doctor smiled, realizing that he had made his point.

He convinced the mom that there is no difference in killing a child that's already been born and one that's still in the womb. The crime is the same!

A very good example of friendship

Anything for a Friend

                    Once upon a time there was a little boy that was very ill. He was so ill that he had to stay in bed the whole day, and because his illness was a very contagious one, his friends couldn’t visit him. The only thing the little boy could do was to look through the window in his room.

                 One day, the little boy saw something quite strange through the window. Outside there was a penguin, and it was holding a slice of salami! You can imagine that when he saw this he thought, “Well, I must be really very ill!” but that explained what he had seen, and so he calmed down and kept looking through the window. Then he saw something even stranger… A monkey wearing diapers that was blowing up a balloon! And thus the little boy kept seeing very weird things, as for instance, an elephant in a trampoline or a dog wearing glasses that spoke only about politics. The boy couldn’t stop laughing.

                  This cheerfulness helped the boy to get better, and after a while he was able to go back to school. Once there, talking to his best friend, he noticed that something was sticking out from inside his friend’s backpack. He asked him what it was, but his friend wouldn’t tell. After insisting several times, his friend agreed to show him what he had inside the backpack, and the boy was very happy when he saw that there was nothing less than all the animal costumes his friend had used to cheer him up when he was ill.

                  The two friends embraced each other, and the little boy promised that from then on he would never let any boy be alone and sad.
