Very happy day to everyone,
I can't find anything better than sharing the story below with you:-
A Lovely Message
A boy was born to a couple after eleven years of marriage. They were a loving couple and the boy was the gem of their eyes. When the boy was around two years old, one morning the husband saw a medicine bottle open. He was late for office 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 fascinated by its color and drank it all. It happened to be a poisonous medicine meant for adults in small dosages. When the child collapsed 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 five words.
QUESTIONS:
1. What were the five words ?
2. What is the implication of this story?

ANSWER :
The husband just said, "I am with 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 had taken time to keep the bottle away, this would not have happened.
No one is 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.
MORAL OF THE STORY
This story is really worth reading. .....
Sometimes we spend time in asking who is responsible or whom to blame, whether in a relationship, in a job or with the people we know. By this way we miss out something

ReplyDeleteThank you, again. Your blog is a daily inspiration. Blessings.
ReplyDeleteI always seem to miss the message in those types of stories and get stuck on the sadness. Now I am crying.
ReplyDeleteThanks for dropping by and your sweet comment, Gillian.
ReplyDeleteCheffie-Mom, Thanks for your validation and this blog is created for that purpose. Blessings to you too.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your honest answer, Shane. You are not alone and I do miss the message in those types of stories sometimes. That's why it is vitally important to stay control of our own selves.
ReplyDeletenot the words i expected him to say. guess we are all pretty conditioned in the responses we expect. what a moral, well woth learning. thanks james.
ReplyDeleteThis would be a rare case which is certainly a very good case. Easier said than done think in most common scenario the husband would hit through the ceiling. Lesson I learn here is to follow Nike's "Do It Now". No procrastination! If she had done it immediately things would be different. Thanks James it's a good reminder.
ReplyDeleteShadow,
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your wise thought here. You need to be "reconditioned" our responses.
Cheah, you raise a valid point here and we need to act Now. Repetition is the key of mastery. As such, we need to repeat it until it become part of our habits. Thanks .
