A blind boy sat on the steps of a building with a hat by his feet. He held up a sign which said: 'I am blind, please help.' There were only a few coins in the hat.
 
A man was walking by. He took a few coins from his pocket and dropped them into the hat. He then took the sign, turned it around, and wrote some words. He put the sign back so that everyone who walked by would see the new words.
 
Soon the hat began to fill up. A lot more people were giving money to the blind boy. That afternoon the man who had changed the sign came to see how things were. The boy recognized his footsteps and asked, 'Were you the one who changed my sign this morning? What did you write?'
 

The man said, 'I only wrote the truth. I said what you said but in a different way.'
What he had written was: 'Today is a beautiful day and I cannot see it.'
 
Do you think the first sign and the second sign were saying the same thing?
 
Of course both signs told people the boy was blind. But the first sign simply said the boy was blind. The second sign told people they were so lucky that they were not blind. Should we be surprised that the second sign was more effective?
 
 
 

Moral of the Story: Be thankful for what you have. Be creative. Be innovative. Think differently and positively.
 
Invite others towards good with wisdom. Live life with no excuse and love with no regrets. When life gives you a 100 reasons to cry, show life that you have 1000 reasons to smile. Face your past without regret. Handle your present with confidence. Prepare for the future without fear. Keep the faith and drop the fear.
 
Great men say, 'Life has to be an incessant process of repair and reconstruction, of discarding evil and developing goodness�? In the journey of life, if you want to travel without fear, you must have the ticket of a good conscience.'
THANKS

NOBODY LOSES ALL THE TIME
 

Nobody loses all the time.
Remember, this statement is true.
I know they'll be times in your life,
When you think nobody's a loser but you
 
But everyone has their ups and downs
And, though you feel you're as low as can get,
You must keep your chin up and hold your head high;
Cause you haven't hit rock bottom yet.
 
Have faith in yourself and never give up!
No matter how hurt you maybe,
Just keep telling yourself, when you're feeling blue,
"There are others worse off than me."
 
Then you'll realize your problems
Aren't all that bad,
And that others, around you,
Are much more sad.

You can

There are many perfectly logical and understandable reasons why you can't. Yet even so, you can. There are difficult obstacles standing in your way, and you do not now know how you'll get beyond them. Yet even so, you can. Others may persuade and convince you that you can't. Yet even so, you can. If you can dream it, if you can imagine it, then you can be it, you can do it. If it is meaningful enough, and you commit the energy of your passion, you will.Many of the things you now take for granted were once considered impossible. Many of the things now considered i mpossible you'll one day take for granted. Go ahead and dream, go ahead and imagine, then get busy bringing those dreams to life. You can, if only you will.
Ralph Marston
