Worth reading...

This is really worth reading. Got it from a buletin...

Sometimes we spend time asking
who is responsible or who to blame,
whether in a relationship,
in a job or
with the people we know.
We miss out some warmth in human relationship to give each other support.
Treasure what you have.
Just a little story ....

A boy was born to a couple after eleven years of
marriage. They were a loving couple and the boy
was the apple of their eyes. When the boy was
around two years old, one morning the husband
saw a medicine bottle open. He was late for work
so he asked his wife to cap the bottle and keep it
in the cupboard. His wife, preoccupied in the
kitchen totally forgot the matter. The boy saw the
bottle and playfully went to the bottle and
fascinated by its color, drank it all. It happened to
be a poisonous medicine meant for adults in small
dosages. When the child collasped the mother
hurried him to the hospital, where he died. The
mother was stunned. She was terrified how to face
her husband.When the distraught father came to
the hospital and saw the dead child, he looked at
his wife and uttered just four words.





QUESTIONS :
1. What were the four words ?

2. What is the implication of this story?









ANSWER :

The husband just said "I Love You Darling"




The husband's totally unexpected reaction is a
proactive behavior. The child is dead. He can never
be brought back to life. There is no point in finding
fault with the mother. Besides, if only he have
taken time to keep the bottle away, this will not
happen. No one to be blamed. She had also lost
her only child.What she needed at that moment
was consolation and sympathy from the husband.
That is what he gave her.

If everyone can look at life with this kind of
perspective, there would be much fewer problems
in the world.
"A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step."
Take off all your envies, jealousies, unforgiveness, selfishness, and fears.
And you will find things are actually not as difficult
as you think.
" A successful marriage requires falling in love many times ----- with the same
person."

wow...
