The Forward

The teacher was demonstrating in the class. He took a glass jar, and put some stones in.
"Is this jar full now?", he asked.
"No Sir, you can fit in some pebbles", a kid responded.

"Good idea", he put some pebbles in. The jar was filled to the brim.
"Is the jar full now?"

"No sir, you can fit in some gravel, and sand", said another kid.
"Smart thinking", teacher said, asked a kid to run and get some sand.

"Is the jar full now?"
"No sir, you can still add some water to replace the air"
The teacher added some water.

"Anything else?", the teacher asked, sounding frustrated
"Yes sir, you can add some color"

The teacher realized he had been taken for a ride. He was going to demonstrate a forward that he had received in email, on time management, how the larger stones were family, health etc, and how you had to fit in the important things first, and there would still be space for other smaller things.

However, he wasn't prepared for what came next. In habit, he asked, "So kids what did you learn from this, that large stones are the important things in your life..."

"Sir", a kid at the back benches interrupted

"This is the Indian Traffic. And we can make it freaking move".
