This touched me.
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 only I could 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 “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 ALMIGHTY GOD for a companion.
Today before you complain about life – Think of someone who
died too young. 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 some people who are living on 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 then GOD you’re alive and still around. I am sharing this as it might change
someone’s thinking towards life.
Remain blessed.
