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 I could
only 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,'Now that you can see the
world, 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 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 GOD for a companion.

Today
before you complain about life -
Think of someone who went
too early to heaven.

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.

And when
depressing thoughts seem to
get you down - Put a smile on
your face and think: you're alive and still

around.
