Amer tells a story

Amer tells a story about a lecturer who began a seminar holding up a one dollar bill, and asking:

Who wants this dollar bill?

Several hands went up, but the lecturer said: before handing it over, there’s something I must do.

He furiously crushed it, and asked again: who still wants this bill?

The hands continued raised and what if I do this?

He threw it against the wall, letting it fall to the floor, kicked it, stamped in it and again held up the bill all dirty and crumpled.

He repeated the question, and the hands continued to be held high.

You mustn’t ever forget this scene said the lecturer no matter what I do with this money, it’ll still be a one dollar bill.

“Many times in our lives, we are crushed, stamped on, kicked, maltreated, offended; however, in spite of this, we are still worth the same.”
