A SHORT STORY FROM GOOGLE BARD

Today I started using Google Bard.

I asked for a short story about universal love.

This is what I got in seconds. I liked it and hope you also like it.

Sure, here is a short story about universal love:

The year is 2042. The world is a very different place than it was just a few decades ago. Technology has advanced to the point where it is now possible to communicate with people all over the world in real time. This has led to a greater sense of global community and understanding.

In this new world, love is no longer limited to one person or one group of people. It is now possible to love everyone, regardless of their race, religion, or nationality. This is the power of universal love.

One day, a young woman named Anya was walking through the park when she saw a homeless man sitting on a bench. She felt a pang of compassion for him and decided to sit down and talk to him. The man's name was John, and he told Anya about his life. He had lost his job and his home, and he was struggling to make ends meet. Anya listened to John's story with empathy, and she felt a connection with him. She realized that he was just like her, a human being who was struggling to find happiness.

Anya and John talked for hours, and by the end of the day, they had become friends. They started meeting in the park every day, and they quickly fell in love. Anya's love for John helped him to turn his life around. He got a job and found a place to live, and he was finally able to start rebuilding his life.

Anya and John's story is a reminder that love is a powerful force that can change the world. It is the love between two people that can bring them together and help them to overcome any obstacle. It is the love between people from different cultures and backgrounds that can bring peace and understanding to the world. And it is the love between all of humanity that can create a better future for everyone.

Universal love is not just a dream. It is a reality that we can all create. When we open our hearts to love, we open ourselves to the possibility of a better world. A world where everyone is loved and respected. A world where everyone has the opportunity to reach their full potential. A world where everyone is happy.

So let us all choose to love. Let us choose to love ourselves, our families, our friends, our neighbors, and our fellow human beings. Let us choose to love the world around us. And let us choose to love the universe that we are all a part of.

When we choose to love, we choose to create a better world. A world where everyone is loved and respected. A world where everyone has the opportunity to reach their full potential. A world where everyone is happy.

COW & THE TIGER

Once upon a time, a cow went out to graze in the jungle. Suddenly, she noticed a tiger racing towards her. She turned and fled, fearing that at any moment the tiger would sink his claws into her. The cow desperately looked for someplace to escape and at last, saw a shallow pond. Barely evading the tiger’s reach, she jumped into the pond, and in the heat of the chase, the tiger blindly leaped after her.

To the surprise of them both, the pond was extremely shallow yet filled with deep recesses of mud. After toppling over each other, the cow and the tiger found themselves a short distance apart, stuck in the mud up to their necks. Both had their heads above water but were unable to free themselves no matter how much they writhed.

The tiger repeatedly snarled at the cow and roared, “I am going to enjoy the sound of crunching your bones between my teeth!”

He thrashed about in fury but soon became fretful as he found no prospect of escape.

The cow thoughtfully laughed as the tiger struggled to free himself and asked him, “Do you have a master?”

The tiger disdainfully replied, “I am the king of the jungle. Why do you ask me if I have a master? I myself am the master!”

The cow said, “You may be the king of the jungle, but here all your power has failed to save your life.”

“And what about you?” retorted the tiger. “You are going to die here in this mud too!”

The cow smiled mildly and said, “No, I am not.”

“If even I, the king of the jungle cannot free myself from this mud”, snapped the tiger, “then how can you, an ordinary cow?”

The cow gently replied, “I cannot free myself from this mud, but my master can. When the sun sets and he finds me absent at home, he will come looking for me. Once he finds me, he will raise me up and escort me home sweet home.”

The tiger fell silent and coldly glared at the cow.

Soon enough, the sun set and the cow’s master arrived. He immediately recognized the plight she was in and lifted her to safety. As they walked home, the cow and the master both felt renewed gratitude for one another and pitied the tiger they both would have been happy to save if only the tiger had allowed them.

*The cow represents a surrendered heart, the tiger represents an egoistic mind, and the master represents the Guru or the Lord. The mud represents the world, and the chase represents the struggle for existence therein.*

Let's hold on to our faith & know that He will come to take us home.

STORY OF THE DAY : DO NOT ARGUE WITH DONKEYS

DO NOT ARGUE WITH DONKEYS (Fable)

 The donkey said to the tiger:
 - "The grass is blue."

 The tiger replied:
 - "No, the grass is green."

 The discussion heated up, and the two decided to submit it to arbitration, and for this they went before the lion, the King of the Jungle.

 Even before reaching the clearing in the forest, where the lion was sitting on his throne, the donkey began to shout:
 -"His Highness of him, is it true that the grass is blue?".

 The lion replied:
 - "Right, the grass is blue."

 The donkey hurried up and continued:
 - "The tiger disagrees with me and contradicts and annoys me, please punish him."

 The king then declared:
 - "The tiger will be punished with 5 years of silence."

 The donkey jumped happily and continued on his way, happy and repeating:
 - "The grass is blue"...

 The tiger accepted his punishment, but before he asked the lion:

 "Your Majesty of him, why has he punished me, after all, the grass is green."

 The lion replied:
 - "In fact, the grass is green."
 The tiger asked:

 - "Then why do you punish me?"
 The lion replied:

 - "That has nothing to do with the question of whether the grass is blue or green. The punishment is due to the fact that it is not possible for a brave and intelligent creature like you to waste time arguing with a donkey, and on top of that come bother me." me with that question.

 The worst waste of time is arguing with the fool and fanatic who cares not for truth or reality, but only for the victory of his beliefs and illusions.  Never waste time in discussions that don't make sense... There are people who, despite many evidences and proofs that we present to them, are not able to understand, and others are blinded by ego, hatred and resentment, and the only thing that They want is to be right even if they are not.

 When ignorance screams, intelligence is silent.  Your peace and tranquility are worth more.
