 Interesting Read


1.    Our priorities are wrong:

·         instead of loving the people and using the things, we are loving the things and using the people

·         instead of tough on gun trotters and soft on pen weilder we are soft on guns and tough on pen.

·         instead of imbibing moral values and shedding barbarism, we are shedding morality and imbibing barbarism.

·         instead of people being kind hearted and laws being tough, people are rough and laws are senile.

·         instead of concentrating on leaving better kids for the planet, we are striving for better planet for the kids.

·         Instead of being strict to yourself and gentle to others we are gentle to ourselves and strict to others.

Instead of amalgamating politics with religion we are pouring politics in religion.

The word is "ONLY".

The Message:
1. ONLY I hit him in the eye yesterday. (No one else did)
2. I ONLY hit him in the eye yesterday. (Did not slap him)
3. I hit ONLY him in the eye yesterday. (I did not hit others)
4. I hit him ONLY in the eye yesterday. (I did not hit outside the eye)
5. I hit him in ONLY the eye yesterday. (Not other organs)
6. I hit him in the ONLY eye yesterday. (He doesn't have another eye)
7. I hit him in the eye ONLY yesterday. (Not today)
8. I hit him in the eye yesterday ONLY. (Did not wait for today)

This is the beauty and complexity of the English language
