Life is a present....

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 bf, 'if i could only see the world, i'll marry you'. One day, someone donated a pair of eyes to her.  When d bandages came off, she was able to see everything, including her bf. He asked her, now that you can see the world, will u marry me?  The girl looked at her bf and saw that he was blind. The sight of is 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 bf left 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 ur partner - think of someone who's crying our for a companion
before you complain about life -think of someone who went too early to the grave
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,
depressing thoughts seem to get you down - put a smile on your face and think; you're alive and still around...


We only live once, but if we live carefully, once is enough.... Count your blessing....
