Spoken words can't be retrieved.
Don't let our generation go extinct.
Story by Laleh Chini.
There lived a fox with his mate near a village. The fox became the father of several cubs and as soon as they grew up he took them to the village to teach them how to obtain food. The father fox showed his cubs all the fruit gardens of the village. Everyday, he stole from a different garden so his cubs would learn how not to get caught. Days passed and the cubs were learning perfectly. One of the cubs got curious and asked: “We stole from all the gardens of the village except the garden with the blue door. We passed it carefully not to be seen. You didn’t look at that door and looked down until you passed even the garden wall. Why is that? Should we be afraid of this garden? Did anything happen at this garden?” The father fox said: “This fruit garden belongs to the religious leader of the village. At the end of each week, people gather in a special place to listen to his advice and they believe every thing he says and follow blindly. If he sees us stealing from his garden, as a form of revenge he will announce to the villagers that who ever hunts fox and eats its meat will go to heaven and will get a private garden there as a special reward. So trust me, you should avoid this garden even if you are starving or he will cause the extinction of fox generations.”
Film festival.
It was the film festival for short films and people were so interested to watch them one by one and describe or analyze each one as we all love to do. They saw a few 10-minute films and seemed like they enjoyed each and every one of them. The last short film was about to start and people got even more excited because after this last one they could vote for the best film. The prize of the best 10-minute short film depended on people’s votes. The film started with an image of a ceiling. Two minutes passed and people were waiting to see what would happen next. Four more minutes passed and the camera was still on the ceiling. Some of the spectators left the cinema with anger. Eight minutes of the 10-minute film passed and the camera never left the ceiling. It was really boring and frustrating. Everyone was mumbling and some were swearing. The film was going nowhere and it really didn’t seem like it would get any positive reviews or votes. When the film reached the 9-minute mark, the camera moved to a young child laying on a bed who was paralyzed from the neck down by an accident caused by a drunken careless driver. Then there came a writing: “This was just 10-minutes of my life and most of you weren’t patient enough to watch the film, now you know how the rest of my life looks like. Please be thankful for your health and abilities. Drive sober, other people care about their lives, if you don’t for yours.”

Let's have fun.
A group of young boys were passing by a fruit garden as they were hiking.
On their way they saw a pair of ripped shoes and a faded color shirt and worn out pants beside a tree.
Three of the boys laughed and pointed at the clothes and said who would wear that?
They made fun a lot and one of them said: “Let’s have some fun today. ”
The other boy said: “I think it belongs to a fruit picker labour.”
The third boy laughed hard and said: “Oh my God, these must be his best clothes and he changed into something worst then these!”
The first boy said: “Let’s take his clothes and hide behind a tree and see if he cries, that would be a great laugh."
The second boy said: “Let’s leave a frog in his shoes. That would be hilarious. ”
The forth boy was listening to all their conversations and smiled and said: “Do you know what would be more fun?”
All three boys were listening carefully.
Forth boy continued: “Seems like these shoes are the same size as mine so I could leave my shoes for him and wear his; just to go home and if you like we can hide behind a tree and watch if he gets happy?”
First boy who was embarrassed of his thinking compare to his friend’s fabulous idea; said: “I have a little money with me, we can leave it in your shoes for him too.”
The second and third boy said together: “We have money too. ”
All four boys left their money in the forth boy’s shoes and hid behind a tree and waited. A middle aged skinny man with severe sunburn came by the tree.
He noticed that his shoes were missing and saw the new pair of shoes, tears came in his eyes. He grabbed the shoes and saw that there was money in the shoes. He burst into cry and looked at the sky and said: “God I never doubt that you always watch over our shoulders. ”
