There was a young lad who was the only son of a wealthy father. He spent all
his money on his friends lavishly. The father was old and on death bed told him
not to spend his money foolishly. This young lad had lots of friends who would
hover round him. One day the father told his son not to get disheartened and
sad if by chance you lose your wealth and the easy way is to hang yourself by
tying a rope round this beam which is here in this room. That beam was very low
and easy for the lad to tie a rope and hang himself. After the death of his
father he became a pauper. All his money that he had got over. His friends also
deserted him. One day he came to know that his most close friend was
celebrating his birthday in his own house. He had to go and wish his friend .He
did not have a proper gift to offer his friend except a duck. He took that and
started walking along the fields. On the lonely way he kept his duck on the
ground and went to answer nature’s call. On his return the fox ran away with
the bird. He was disappointed. He went to his friend and narrated his story.
“Nao podxer “(not possible ) said his friends. Why do you lie? He was in tears
n came home and took a rope and fixed it to the beam. He wanted to make sure
that he would really die and pulled the rope hard. Lo the beam broke and down
came notes of rupees bundled inside .They were in lakhs. He got his riches but
now he was a wise man. He understood the meaning of wealth. His friends came
back to him. One day he hosted a party .At the dinner he narrated an incident.
Last night as I went to sleep I kept my watch on the side table. In the middle
of the night I heard some funny sound. I saw that thousands of ants were taking
my watch away. “Podser podser came the chorus from his friends. O que podser ?
he shouted at that them. When I was poor and when fox had taken my bird you
idiots said “Nao podser, and today just because I am rich and I have told you
that ants have taken my watch you say Podser? He got them pasted black and
blue. This is a story for us. When I criticize the church and the clergy some
of the readers of goanet suggest that I take treatment from a psych. But when
others especially Edward Silva writes about Padre Pio that he is using carbolic
acid none said anything .Everyone said “PODSER SENHOR .!!!!!
Podser means “Possible .Nao Podser means not possible. Senhor means Mr.
