To read is to know. Read the story below and get to know the author who wrote it although isn’t really my story, but I had to share it with you. Just before I close my eyes last night, I read a very touching story and gave a lesson. This story touches me and I hope it touches you, reaches out to you and perhaps even makes a difference in your life. This a true story.
A story fought is told about a soldier who was finally coming home after having a battle in
“ Sure,” they replied, “ We’d love to meet him”
“ There’s something you should know” the son continue. “ He was hurt pretty badly in the fighting. He stepped on a land mine and lost a leg and a hand. He has nowhere else to go, and I want him to come and live with us”.
“I’m sorry to hear that, son. Maybe we can help him find somewhere to live.” Mother said.
“No, Mom. I want him to live with us.”
“Son,” said the father, “you don’t know what you’re asking. Someone such handicap would be terrible burden for us. We have our own life to live and we can’t let something like this interfere our life. I think you should just come back and forget about this guy. He’ll find a way live on his own” at the moment, the son hung up the phone. The parents heard nothing more from him.
A few days later, the parents of the soldier received a call from the police and they were told that their son had died after falling down from a building. The police believed it was suicide. The grief-stricken parents flew to the capital city of
The parents in this story are like many of us. We find it easy to love those who are good looking or fun to have around but we don’t like people who inconvenience us or make us feel uncomfortable. We could rather stay away from people who aren’t as healthy, beautiful, or smart as we are. Thankfully. There’s someone who won’t treat us that way. Someone who loves us with unconditional love and welcomes us into the forever family.
Regardless of how messed up we are. After reading this, make a little prayer that Allah will give you the strength that you need to accept people and be more understanding of everyone especially the person you don’t like!!!!
Friends make you smile and encourage you to succeed. They lend an ear, share your tears, give a word of praise and open their hearts to you. If you want to show how much you care for them, take this and give it to him/her and say “Read”
