Title: "Love Is Blind"
Post by: tanu_12 on May 24, 2009, 12:56:34 PM
VERY GOOD PIECE TO READ AND SHARE.

There was a blind girl who hated herself just
because she's blind.

She hated everyone, except her loving boyfriend.
He's 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 can 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 is 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's 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.

Title: "Love and Time"
Post by: tanu_12 on June 29, 2009, 10:13:13 AM
Love and Time

 

Once upon a time, there was an island where all the feelings lived: Happiness, Sadness, Knowledge, and all of the others, including Love. One day it was announced to the feelings that the island would sink, so all constructed boats and left. Except for Love.

Love was the only one who stayed. Love wanted to hold out until the last possible moment.

When the island had almost sunk, Love decided to ask for help.

Richness was passing by Love in a grand boat. Love said,
"Richness, can you take me with you?"
Richness answered, "No, I can't. There is a lot of gold and silver in my boat. There is no place here for you."

Love decided to ask Vanity who was also passing by in a beautiful vessel. "Vanity, please help me!"
"I can't help you, Love. You are all wet and might damage my boat," Vanity answered.

Sadness was close by so Love asked, "Sadness, let me go with you."
"Oh . . . Love, I am so sad that I need to be by myself!"

Happiness passed by Love, too, but she was so happy that she did not even hear when Love called her.

Suddenly, there was a voice, "Come, Love, I will take you." It was an elder. So blessed and overjoyed, Love even forgot to ask the elder where they were going. When they arrived at dry land, the elder went her own way. Realizing how much was owed the elder,

Love asked Knowledge, another elder, "Who Helped me?"
"It was Time," Knowledge answered.
"Time?" asked Love. "But why did Time help me?"
Knowledge smiled with deep wisdom and answered, "Because only Time is capable of understanding how valuable Love is."

Fabulous quotes for Love, i liked the story of that blind man and of the sinking island. I read Love that is Blind (http://www.infibeam.com/Books/info/Ayrian-Stone/Love-That-Is-Blind/1933204699.html) and got few more practical Examples to support the quotation.
