On an International flight, a middle-aged, well-off white Lady has found herself sitting next to a black man.
She called the air hostess and complained, "You've sat me next to a DIRTY BLACK KAFFIR. I can't possibly sit next to this disgusting human. Find me another seat!"
"Please calm down Madam." the hostess replied. "The flight is very full today, but I'll try if we have any seats available in club or first class."
The woman cocks a snooty dirty look at the outraged black man beside her. A few minutes later the hostess returns with the good news, which she delivers to the lady, who cannot help but look at the people around her with a smug and self satisfied grin:
"Madam, unfortunately, as I suspected, economy is full. I've spoken to the cabin services director, and club is also full. However, we do have one seat in first class."
Before the lady has a chance to answer, the hostess continues...
"It is most extraordinary to make this kind of upgrade, however, and I have had to get special permission from the captain. But, given the circumstances, the captain felt that it was outrageous that someone be forced to sit next to such an dirty obnoxious person."
With which, she turned to the black man sitting next to the woman, and said:
"So if you'd like to get your things, sir, I have your seat ready for you..."
At which point, apparently, the surrounding passengers stood and gave a standing ovation while the black man walks up to the front of the plane.
Remember:
... people will forget what you said ...
people will forget what you did ...
but people will never forget how you made them feel ...

Friends - in life have you ever thought that people around you are: "Slow Drivers", "Average", "Dumb", "Poor", "Dirty", "Low Class"???
Whenever you feel like this - look within yourself.
...and please never ever let them feel disgusted and insulted.
Whenever you feel like this - look within yourself.
...and please never ever let them feel disgusted and insulted.
Never forget - no one is any less - and if you have even 1% extra knowledge, smartness, or experience - it is a God's Gift.
Don't think that others are inferior - Don't make others FEEL inferior.
If you do that - one day God will take away all that extra that God has blessed you with.
