There was a blind girl who hated herself because
she was blind. She hated everyone, except her
loving boyfriend. He was always there for her. She
told her boyfriend, 'If I could only see the world, I
will marry you.'
One day, someone donated a pair of eyes to her.
When the bandages came off, she was able to see
everything, including her boyfriend.
He asked her,'Now that you can see the world,
will you marry me?'
The girl looked at her boyfriend and saw that he
was blind. The sight of his closed eyelids shocked
her. She hadn't expected that. The thought of
looking at them the rest of her life led her to refuse
to marry him.
Her boyfriend left her in tears and days later wrote
a note to her saying: 'Take good care of your eyes,
my dear, for before they were yours, they were
mine.'
This is how the human brain often works when our
status changes.
Only a very few remember what life was like
before, and who was always by their side in the
most painful situations.
Life Is a Gift
Today before you say 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 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 wish they had your job.
But before you think of pointing the finger or condemning another - Remember that not one of us is without sin and we all answer to one MAKER.
And when depressing thoughts seem to get you down - Put a smile on your face and thank GOD you're alive and still around.
