The story of a blind girl

There was a blind girl who hated herself just because 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 too, and refused to marry him. Her boyfriend walked away in tears, and later wrote a letter to her saying:

“Just take care of my eyes dear.”

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 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.

Life is a gift – Live it, Enjoy it, Celebrate it, and Fulfill it.

The important things in life

A philosophy professor stood before his class with some items on the table in front of him. When the class began, wordlessly he picked up a very large and empty mayonnaise jar and proceeded to fill it with rocks, about 2 inches in diameter.

He then asked the students if the jar was full. They agreed that it was.

So the professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured them into the jar. He shook the jar lightly. The pebbles, of course, rolled into the open areas between the rocks.

He then asked the students again if the jar was full. They agreed it was.

The professor picked up a box of sand and poured it into the jar. Of course, the sand filled up the remaining open areas of the jar.

He then asked once more if the jar was full. The students responded with a unanimous “Yes.”

“Now,” said the professor, “I want you to recognize that this jar represents your life. The rocks are the important things – your family, your partner, your health, your children – things that if everything else was lost and only they remained, your life would still be full. The pebbles are the other things that matter – like your job, your house, your car. The sand is everything else, the small stuff.”

“If you put the sand into the jar first,” he continued, “there is no room for the pebbles or the rocks. The same goes for your life. If you spend all your time and energy on the small stuff, you will never have room for the things that are important to you. Pay attention to the things that are critical to your happiness. Play with your children. Take your partner out dancing. There will always be time to go to work, clean the house, give a dinner party, or fix the disposal.”

“Take care of the rocks first – the things that really matter. Set your priorities. The rest is just sand.”

Why are people the way they are? We are all humans, and we all have different feelings each day depending on what's going on in our lives.

Don't try to justify your choices. You don't owe anyone explanations and excuses when it comes to your life. If you like a dress, wear it. You don't have to explain that it's cute because its clour is nice. If you want to get something then get it, you don't owe anyone its meaning.

Make peace with yourself and don't ever let someone make you feel bad for being you.

Taking a Stand

Taking A Stand

You cannot please everybody all the time. 

Always try to stand firm on your words and actions after ensuring that those actions are deemed right in the eyes of God, your principles and general morality.

Once upon a time, a man and his son embarked on a journey with their donkey. The following events occurred:The son sat on the donkey and the man walked beside it. People who passed them abused the boy of disrespect because he was sitting while his father walked.

They decided to listen to the advice of the people and so the father sat on the donkey and the son walked. Again, they passed some set of people who expressed their shock at the supposed cruelty of the father, because he sat while his son walked along in the scorching desert sun.

Once more, they gave in to the talk of the people and this time around, both father and son sat on the donkey. Animal lovers and activists who saw them as they journeyed along were very vocal in condemning the two, whom they described being wicked and mean to the poor donkey

Rather than be labeled as mean, the pair decided to show their animal loving , by carrying the donkey on their heads. Imagine the sight of two men carrying their means of transport, rather than the other way round!

                           
These time around all the sets of people who had passed them from the start of their journey to the present time, all had a hard time standing still from laughter and mockery at the father and son. Their act of madness and foolishness according to these sets of 'Advisers' was unequalled!

Moral of the Story
