Don't Blame

[Guest guest]

This is really worth reading.

 

Sometimes we spend time asking who is responsible or whom 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 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 four words.

1. What were the four words ?

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 had taken

time to keep the bottle away, this would not have happenned. 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.
