There was a blind girl. She had a loving friend who was always there for her. She hated herself and everyone around her, just because she was blind.
Her friend asked her, "Do you want to marry me?". But she replied, "Only when I can see the world I will marry you."
One day, someone donated 2 eyes and after a long operation she could see everything, including her loving friend.
When he sat down on his knees, she asked, "Now you can see the world, you want to marry me now?" She looked at him for the first time seeing that he was blind too. She refused to marry him ....
He walked away sadly and some time later, he wrote this short note to his beloved girlfriend:
"Just take care of my eyes, dear"
Lessons :
This is how human brain changes when the status changed. Only few remember what life was before, and who’s always been there even in the most painful situations.
Life Is A Gift
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 is 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 or sweep – 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 with their feet.
And when you are tired and complain about your job – think of the unemployed, the disabled and those who wished they had your job.
But before you think of pointing the finger or condemning another – remember that not one of us are without sin .
And 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 – Live it, Enjoy it, Celebrate it, and Fulfill it.
