This is a positive message that I wanted to share with all of you:
A blind boy sat on
the steps of a building with a hat by his feet. He held up a sign which said: "
I am blind, please help ." There were only a few coins in the hat.
A man
was walking by. He took a few coins from his pocket and dropped them into the
hat. He then took the sign, turned it around, and wrote some words. He put the
sign back so that everyone who walked by would see the new words.
Soon
the hat began to fill up. A lot more people were giving money to the blind boy.
That afternoon the man who had changed the sign came to see how things were. The
boy recognized his footsteps and asked, "Were you the one who changed my sign
this morning? What did you write?"
The man said, "I only wrote the truth.
I said what you said but in a different way."
What he had written was: "
Today is a beautiful day and I cannot see it. "
Do you think the first
sign and the second sign were saying the same thing?
Of course both signs
told people the boy was blind. But the first sign simply said the boy was blind.
The second sign told people they were so lucky that they were not blind. Should
we be surprised that the second sign was more effective?
Moral of the
Story: Be thankful for what you have. Be creative. Be innovative. Think
differently and positively.
Invite others towards good with wisdom. Live
life with no excuse and love with no regrets. When life gives you a 100 reasons
to cry, show life that you have 1000 reasons to smile. Face your past without
regret. Handle your present with confidence. Prepare for the future without
fear. Keep the faith and drop the fear.
Great men say, "Life has to be an
incessant process of repair and reconstruction, of discarding evil and
developing goodness?. In the journey of life, if you want to travel without
fear, you must have the ticket of a good conscience."
The most beautiful
thing is to see a person smiling?
And even more beautiful is, knowing
that you are the reason behind it!!!
