Should you find it hard to get to sleep tonight;
Just remember the homeless family who has no bed to lie in.
Should you find
yourself stuck in traffic; don't
despair:
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 or woman 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 some third world
country, 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 didn'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 feel
depressed because of your
weight;
Remember, obesity
is curable; AIDS is
not.
It is
not our nature as humans to stop
mid stream and think of these
things when they are happening to
us!
God gives us minds to
think with and hearts with feeling.
He gives us the ability to love
and to share love with
others!
Although we should
be able to think of these things at
the appropriate moment we
don't...but that does not mean we
don't care!
Should you decide to
send this to a friend; You might
brighten someone's day!
