Judging others

A doctor entered the hospital in hurry after being called in for an urgent
surgery. He answered the call asap, changed his clothes and went directly
to the surgery block. He found the boy's father pacing in the hall waiting
for the doctor. On seeing him, the father yelled, "Why did you take all
this time to come? Don't you know that my son's life is in danger? Don't
you have any sense of responsibility?"

The doctor smiled and said, "I am sorry, I wasn't in the hospital and I
came as fast as I could after receiving the call and now, I wish you'd calm
down so that I can do my work."

"Calm down?! What if your son was in this room right now, would you calm
down? If your own son dies while waiting for doctor than what will you
do?", said the father angrily. The doctor smiled again and replied, "We
will do our best by
God's grace and you should also pray for your son’s healthy life."

"Giving advice when we're not concerned is so easy", murmured the father.
The surgery took some hours after which the doctor went out happy, "Thank
goodness! your son is saved!" And without waiting for the father's reply he
carried on his way running by saying, "If you have any questions, ask the
nurse."

"Why is he so arrogant? He couldn't wait some minutes so that I ask about
my son's state?" asked the father when seeing the nurse minutes after the
doctor left. The nurse answered, tears coming down her face, "His son died
yesterday in a road accident, he was at the burial when we called him for
your son's surgery. And now that he saved your son's life, he left running
to finish his son's burial."

*Moral:* *Never judge anyone because you never know how their life is and
what they are going through.*
