Careful and careless
January 30th 2007 20:17
In a laboratorium, an old proffesor was holding a glass, within it is yellow liquid. "This is a urine sample from a diabetes patient," said the old teacher to all the students around him. When everybody's eyes were fixed to the glass of yellow water, he said while laughing, "Taste it a bit! Is it really sweet?" They looked unbelievably at one another, thinking that the teacher must be joking. Very unexpectedly, he dipped his index finger to the yellow water and tasted it. A moment later, he said, "As it is named, it is really sweet like candy! Come, every body can prove it by themselves!." Even the old teacher dared to try, why would not we youngster? That was what they thought. One by one they took turn tasting it. Everybody ended saying that it is really sweet.
The old teacher laughed and laughed at his students, "In learning, especially in such field where it concerns human life and death, we can not afford to be careless. We must re-examine very carefully and be cautious in making analysis so that fatal error shall not appear. Just a while ago, i used my middle finger to taste the yellow water, which in fact, the index finger was the one that i used to dip into the yellow water. I see that all of you didn't observe careful enough. (Everyone was shocked). Lucky for you all, this yellow water is not urine, but simply is a sugared water. Next time you all have to be more careful!"

Thanks for the feedback!
Yes, i have read many times that urine is very good for health. I have tried drinking my own urine in the past too,
slurp, slurp, slurpgurlp, gurlp, gurlp heheheThe biggest challenge in drinking urine is to break our firm rooted belief that urine is dirty and disgusting. It can be na good de-attachment and mental-breaking challenge for any spiritual seeker.

*lol* my eyes may well decieve me, but my taste buds wouldn't, I would have known I was duped the moment I tasted the "urine."
How do I know? Because I have a strong sense of smell and it would have instructed my taste buds ... or arounsed my sixth sense?
Either way, it would have been too late if it really was urine, hey ...*lol*
Can you trust your eyes?
