A story about two brothers , each had a different path (journey) in this life. And how there choices affected there children afterwards.
Both are Libyan , one decided to immigrate to Canada and the other stayed in libya .... well time passes and both got old , while the one in libya as after the revolution thing's got harder and harder...... pension funds stuck at the bank, the long rows of everything sometimes bread other's fuel , at the bank ... And stuck in the loop off depreciating currency and hyperinflation .

In Canada life opened her arm's wide and the other brother got so rich his money is now by the millions , he had an only daughter , and didn't forget to teach her a thing or two about Islam , so when he died she had it in her self and
Divided the inheritance as Islam applied ..... if the deceased father had only daughters and no male son ... The inheritance is divided between daughter and closest male relative in this case her only uncle . (Details don't remember exactly)
So she higherd a lawyer and the cut was couple of million dollar's *8 = a lot more couple of millions in Libyan dinars which means super rich ........ the uncle got the money but ha only for a month and he died......

Haha tragic
this story was told in front of me when a person i know handed money to a contractor who was building him a house , and the contractor had his sons work with him and the person that I knew wanted to make him a joke (the contractor with his son's besides him) so he told him this story and at the end said ( spend this money , give some TO your son's don't save it all you don't know when you're gonna die)
And then a nephew of the contractor said to him... uncle let me hold the money & I'll bring it to home , And the contractor said to him now you say uncle ha .

And we all laughed.

Please share your thoughts ......

And do you think .... this could have been avoided if The rich had leaned a hand to his brother , or the poor checked with his brother even if there were problems between them.....

We call it in Islam #selat alrahem# means you don't discard your family ,father , mother ,brother,sister uncle ant grand parents ....and if don't have any the closest the closest don't be like someone who is cut off a tree.
At this age of time the least you can do is pic up the phone and check with everyone and see how they are doing... that's what holidays are for TO bring people together.

A wise text you are sharing with the Steemian family))) which makes us a little wiser and more acceptable encountering curves and unexpected twists and turns on our way to … ourselves…

Thanks , you go in life praying not to fall in one of these pitfalls .... remember that the one line twist took a life time , so you need to wake up before someone writes the dot .

Pitfalls and traps can be set for a human everywhere like nets to catch fish… for example, getting a tattoo, afterwards, eventually, some, led you towards a twisted curve you’ll actually will need to have one more life to correct bruises and scars got by any addiction somebody drowned you into…
