Guest guest Posted April 7, 2002 Report Share Posted April 7, 2002 found this on a site geeta told me about today. geeta is one of the silent members of this group. so thanks to her, i discovered a source of inspiring words. thank you very much geeta, and i follow the foot steps of my vanished brother in nepal. http://www.empowerthespirit.com/ Think about this: - Should you find it hard to get to sleep tonight, just remember the homeless who have no bed to lie in. - Should you find yourself stuck in traffic, know that there are people in this world for whom driving is an unheard of privilege. - Should you have a bad day at work, think of the man who has been out of work for the last three months. - Should you despair over a relationship gone bad, think of the person who has never known what it's like to love and be loved in return. - Should you grieve the passing of another weekend, think of the woman in dire straits, working twelve hours a day, seven days a week, for $15.00 to feed her family. - Should your car break down, leaving you miles away from assistance, think of the paraplegic who would love the opportunity to take that walk. - Should you notice a new gray hair in the mirror, think of the cancer patient in chemo who wishes she had hair to examine. - Should you find yourself at a loss and pondering what is life all about, what is my purpose? Be thankful, there are those who don't live long enough to get the opportunity. - Should you find yourself the victim of other people's bitterness, ignorance, smallness or insecurities, remember, things could be worse. You could be them! - Should you decide to send this to a friend, you might brighten someone's day. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ What Do Angels Look Like? From www.omegafaith.org/angelslooklike.htm - Like the elderly person who returned the money you lost yesterday. - Like the person who told you that your eyes light up the world when you smile. - Like the person whose eyes light up whenever they see you. - Like the small child who showed you the wonder in simple things. - Like the homeless person who asked for money to buy something to eat. - Or the one who did not, but who just watched you as you walked by trying to ignore him. - Like the person who showed you that it really is all possible, if only you believe. - Like the stranger who just happened to come along, when you had lost your way. - Like the person who touched your heart, when you didn't think you had one to touch. - God's messengers come in all sizes and shapes, all ages and skin types. - Some with freckles, some with dimples, some with wrinkles, some without. - They come disguised as friends, enemies, teachers, students, employers, employees, co-workers, and fools. - They don't take life too seriously, they travel light. - They leave no forwarding address, they ask nothing in return. - They wear sneakers with gossamer wings, they get a deal on dry cleaning. - They are hard to find when your eyes are closed. - But they are everywhere you look, when you choose to see.
