Introduction There was a little girl and her father who were crossing a bridge. The father was kind of scared so he asked his little daughter, Sweetheart, please hold my hand so that you dont fall into the river. The little girl said, No, Dad. You hold my hand. Whats the difference? Asked the puzzled father. Theres a big difference, replied the little girl. If I hold your hand and something happens to me, chances are that I may let your hand go. But if you hold my hand, I know for sure hat no matter what happens, you will never let my hand go.
