Saving the big fish
A CEO of a huge company planned to build a factory that would kill all the fish in a certain lake, while putting all the local fishermen out of work. The night before the meeting to okay this decision he finds a message on his computer screen, it says: “What makes your children truly smile at you?” He withdraws the plan the next day.
Someone who knew a guide asked, why this was not done more often. The guide said sadly, “How often do you think such a man in such a position, can look through his blindness and be awakened to his light from within?”
