There
was once a blind girl who hated herself for no other reason
except that she was blind. She hated everyone, except her
loving boyfriend.
He
was always there for her. She said that if she could only see
the world, she would marry her boyfriend. One day, someone
donated a pair of eyes to her and then she could see
everything, including her boyfriend.
Her
boyfriend asked her, "Now that you can see the world,
will you marry me?"
The girl was shocked when
she saw that her boyfriend was blind. Not wanting to be
burdened by a 'blind' person, she refused to marry him. Her
loving, devoted and understanding boyfriend walked away in
tears. His heart obviously broken.
The girl who had been so
fortunate to have the world opened up to her, continued
enjoying it; day in and day out.... trying to never miss a
single pleasure life had to offer.
One day she received a
letter from her ex-boy friend which stated simply.......
"I
sincerely hope you enjoy your life. Your happiness was all
that ever mattered to me. I am so happy that you are
enjoying life as I always hoped you could. I would like to
ask one parting favor of you my dear. Just take care of my
eyes!"
This,
as sad as it may seem, is how the human brain changes when
our status changes. Only a few remember what life was like
before and who's always been there even in the most painful
situations.
Today
before you think of saying an unkind word -
Think of someone who can't speak.
Before
you complain about the taste of your food -
Think of someone who has nothing to eat.
Before
you complain about your husband or wife -
Think of someone who's crying out to God for a companion.
Today
before you complain about life -
Think of someone who went too early to heaven.
Before
you complain about your children -
Think of someone who desires children but they're barren.
Before
you argue about your dirty house, someone didn't clean -
Think of the people who are living in the streets.
Before
whining about the distance you drive -
Think of someone who walks the same distance.
Before
you think of pointing the finger or condemning another.
Remember that not one of us are without faults and we all
answer to one higher power.
When
depressing thoughts seem to get you down -
Put
a smile on your face and thank God you're alive and still
around.
Life
is a gift... Thank
God for it!!!
