Short Story: The Slapping Numbers

Once all numbers from 0 to 9 are sitting in a group and suddenly number 9 slaps number 8. Being so confused, 8 asks 9 why did you slap?; to which 9 replies "I'm greater than you and I can do whatever I want"

Number 8 wanted to do the same thing to number 7, and it slapped 7 hard. 7 was so puzzles by what number 8 did to it and asked the reason for such behavior, number 8 replied the same thing number 9 told it "I'm greater than you and I can do whatever I want".

Now, number 7 also wanted to do the same thing to number 6 and replied the same words as spoken by 8 and the tradition continued till number 6 slapping to number 5 and till number 2 slapping number 1.

Number 1 wanted to teach everyone a lesson, so instead of slapping 0 it kindly placed 0 beside it and suddenly number 1 became number 10 and now it's greater than number 9. Seeing what number 1 did to 0, all other numbers felt ashamed and apologized for their rude behavior.

Similarly our human lives are mixture of abilities and strengths of each other. No one is stronger nor weaker. We need to embrace weaker people with kindness and convert their weaker ability to stronger agility.

Life gives everyone a chance to show what they are and what we meant to our fellow society, never disrespect weaker ones and never under estimate their true potential. Character and Kindness towards others is what separates you from rest of world.... Remember, to reach the power of Number 1, you need to be ODD !! that odd...everyone takes a blood of inspiration from you.
