WHEN LIZARD CAN, WHY CAN'T WE?
This is a true story that happened in Japan.
In order to renovate the house, someone in Japan
Breaks open the wall.
Japanese houses normally have a hollow space
between the wooden walls.
When tearing down the walls, he found that there
was a lizard stuck there
because a nail from outside hammered into one of
its feet. He sees
this, feels pity, and at the same time curious, as
when he checked the
nail, it was nailed 10 years ago when the house was
first built.
What happened?
The lizard has survived in such position for 10
years! In a dark wall
partition for 10 years without moving, it is
impossible and mind boggling.
Then he wondered how this lizard survived for 10
years! without moving a
single step--since its foot was nailed!
So he stopped his work and observed the lizard,
what it has been doing,
and what and how it has been eating. Later, not
knowing from where it
came, appears another lizard, with food in its
mouth.
Ahh! He was stunned and touched deeply. For the
lizard that was stuck by
nail, another lizard has been feeding it for the
past 10 years...
Such help! such a beautiful love! Such
happened even with this tiny
creature ... What can help do? It can do wonders!
Help can do miracles!
Imagine? it has been doing that untiringly for 10
long years, without
giving up hope on its partner.
Think, will u do that to your partner ?
Think that will you do it to your Mom,
Who brought you after a big struggle of TEN long
months ?
Or at least to your Dad, Friends , Coworkers,
Brothers & and Sisters ?
Imagine what a small creature can do that a
creature blessed with a
brilliant mind can't.
I was touched when I heard this story and started
wondering about
relationships between family members, friends,
coworkers, brothers,
sisters.
As information and communication technology
advances, our access to
information becomes faster and faster. But the
distance between human
beings . . . is it getting closer as
well?
I ask you...please never abandon your loved ones.
HELP is an act, do it, let it go. LOVE is a gift,
take it, let it grow.
PATIENCE is a sign, we should wear, let it show.
