Finding that cranes were destroying his newly sown corn, a farmer one
evening set a net in his field to catch the destructive birds. When he
went to examine the net next morning he found a number of cranes and
also a stork.
"Release me, I beseech you," cried the stork, "for I
have eaten none of your corn, nor have I done you any harm. I am a poor
innocent stork, as you may see - a most dutiful bird, I honor my father
and mother. I..."
But the farmer cut him short. "All this may be
true enough, I dare say, but I have caught you with those were
destroying my crops, and you must suffer with the company in which you
are found."
One who enters the places of evil reputes has no right to complain against a man who talks evils of him. Imam Ali (as)
Moral of the Story: People are judged by the company (Friends) they keep. or Birds of the same Feather flock together. Also read Islam and Friends
Holy Prophet Muhammad (saw) was one day amongst his companions (Sahabah),
when he (saw) said, "Do not be like a housefly!" Surprised, the
companions asked, "And how can we be like a housefly O' Prophet of Allah
(SWT)?"
"Don't you see" Holy Prophet Muhammad (saw) replied, "a housefly always prefers to sit on dirt instead of a clean and pure place!"
What Holy Prophet Muhammad (saw) meant to say was that one should
never chose fellowship with bad people, but with those who are righteous
and good as companions in life.
let's share our knowledge,opinion and experiences. May we become better people for ourselves and for people around us.

Brassia Orchid
The Brassia orchid is native to the wet forests of tropical Central and South America and is named for a 19th century, British botanical illustrator, William Brass.
The spider-like look of Brassia orchids gives this plant a distinct
propagating advantage. To certain parasitic wasps these flowers resemble
spiders in a web, so the wasps lay eggs on the “spiders”, which are really the interior of the orchid’s blossoms. It’s a win-win situation. The wasps reproduce and the orchid gets pollinated.
Brassia orchids can be cultivated outside the tropics as long as specific growth requirements are met. Give your “spiders” high humidity (50 to 70%) and bright, non noon day light. Bright and diffuse light is perfect for these orchids.
Brassia orchids need a lot of water while producing flowers, but don’t like to get too wet. Good air circulation is important, too, otherwise you will see brown spots on the leaves. A small fan can be used to facilitate circulation, but never let the
fan blow directly onto the plant. Daytime temperatures should remain
between 65 and 75 degrees Fahrenheit. Night time temperatures are only
slightly cooler with a range of 55 to 65 degrees.
