Got this from a friend,would like to share with you all
A little girl had been shopping with her Mom in Target. She must have been 6
years old, this beautiful red haired, freckle faced image of innocence. It was
pouring outside. The kind of rain that gushes over the top of rain gutters, so
much in a hurry to hit the earth it has no time to flow down the spout. We all
stood there under the awning and just inside the door of the Target.
We waited, some patiently , others irritated
because nature messed up their hurried day. I am always
mesmerized by rainfall. I got lost in the sound and sight of the heavens
washing away the dirt and dust of the world. Memories of running, splashing so carefree as a child came pouring in as a
welcome reprieve from the worries of my day.
The little voice was so sweet as it broke
the hypnotic trance we were all caught in ‘Mom let’s run through the rain,’ she
said.
‘What?’ Mom asked.
‘Lets run through the rain!’ She repeated.
‘No, honey. We’ll wait until it slows down a
bit,’ Mom replied.
This young child waited about another minute and repeated: ‘Mom, let’s run
through the rain,’
‘We’ll get soaked if we do,’ Mom said.
‘No, we won’t, Mom. That’s not what you said this morning,’ the young girl said
as she tugged at her Mom’s arm.
This morning? When did I say we could run
through the rain and not get wet?
‘Don’t you remember? When you were talking t o Daddy about his cancer, you
said, ‘If God can get us through this, he can get us through anything!’
The entire crowd stopped dead silent. I swear you couldn’t hear anything but
the rain. We all stood silently. No one came or left in the next few minutes.
Mom paused and thought for a moment about what she would say. Now some
would laugh it off and scold her for being silly. Some might even ignore what
was said. But this was a moment of affirmation in a young child’s life. A time when innocent trust can be nurtured so that it
will bloom into faith.
‘Honey, you are absolutely right. Let’s run through the rain. If GOD let’s us
get wet, well m aybe we just needed
washing,’ Mom said.
Then off they ran. We all stood watching, smiling and laughing as they darted
past the cars and yes, through the puddles. They held their shopping bags over
their heads just in case. They got soaked. But they were followed by a few who
screamed and laughed like children all the way to their cars.
And yes, I did. I ran. I got wet. I needed washing.
Circumstances or people can take away your material possessions, they can take
away your money, and they can take away your health. But no one can ever take
away your precious memories…So, don’t forget to make time and take the
opportunities to make memories everyday. To everything there is a season and a time
to every purpose under heaven.
I HOPE YOU STILL TAKE THE TIME TO RUN THROUGH THE RAIN.
They say it takes a minute to find a special person, an hour to appreciate
them, a day to love them, but then an entire life to forget them.
Can anyone think of the link between plane and love ?
When I came across this, I also cannot figure out the linkage.
When i get to know the relationship/similarities in both,I realize it is such a good parable.
Love is like the crystal plane
It is hard when it takes off
You will lose your way in the cloud
You cannot change airline nor air route until you reach your destination
Four friends, who hadn’t seen each other in 30 years, reunited at a
party.
After several drinks,
one the men had to use the rest room. Those who
remained talked about
their kids.
The 1st guy said: "My
son is my pride and joy. He started working at
a successful company at
the bottom of the barrel. He studied
Economics
and Business Administration and soon began to climb the
corporate ladder. He is
now the president of the company. He became
so rich that he gave his
best friend a top of the lie Mercedes for his
birthday."
The 2nd guy said: "Darn,
that’s terrific! My son is also my pride and
joy. He started working
for a big airline, and then went to flight
school to become a
pilot. Eventually he became a partner in the
company, where he owns
the majority of its assets. He is so rich that
he gave his best friend
a brand new jet for his brithday."
The 3rd man
said: "Well, that’s terrific! My son studied in the best
universities and became
an engineer. Then he started his won
construction company and
is now a multimillionaire. He also gave away
something very nice and
expensive to his best friend for his birthday
- a 30,000 square foot
mansion."
The 3 friends
congratulated each other just as the 4th returned from
the restroom and asked:
"What are all the congratulations for?"
One of the 3 said: "We
were just talking about the pride we feel for
the successes of our
sons. ….. What about your son?"
The 4th man
replie! d: "Oh, my son is gay and makes a living dancing
as a stripper at a
nightclub."
The 3 friends said:
"What a shame ….. What a disappointment."
The 4th man replied:
"No! I am not ashamed. He’s my son and I love
him. He hasn’t done too
badly either. His birthday was 2 weeks ago and
he received a beautiful
30,000 square foot mansion, a brand new jet
and a top of the line
Mercedes from his 3 boyfriends."
i rarely watch animation films.i got to watch this film by chance and i found that it is a good movie.sometimes it is good to just redirect our mind from human thinking which is complicated all the time.it is such a grace to just live a simple life,don’t you think so?
MY DEAREST,
HAPPY BIRTHDAY
MAY ALL YOUR DREAMS COME TRUE
MAY GOD BLESS YOU ALWAYS
MAY GOD ANSWER ALL YOUR PRAYER ON YOUR SPECIAL DAY(MAKE SURE YOU MAKE MORE WISHES YA!!HAHA!)
HAVE A BLESSED DAY TODAY AND STAY YOUNG AND WISE ALWAYS!!

端午节快乐
So sad!!!this year no one makes "zong zi"(bak chang) for me.Although i dont really like to eat but i want it today because today is "Duan Wu Jie"…. sob.sob.sob…..anyone?courier for me?…..sob.sob.sob….
You thought it is happening or had happened but it actually not…….can see and can change the situation….which is real?…what is going to happen NEXT?
There was a blind girl who hated herself just because she
was blind. She hated everyone, except her loving boyfriend.He was always there
for her.She said that if she could only see the world,she would marry her
boyfriend.
One day,someone donated a pair of eyes to her and then she
could see everything,including her boyfriend.Her boyfriend asked her,"now that
you can see the world,will you marry me?"The girl was shocked when she saw that
her boyfriend was blind too,and refused to marry him.
Her boyfriend walked away in tears,and later wrote a letter
to her saying."JUST TAKE CARE OF MY EYES PLEASE"
This is how humans change when their status changes.Only few
remember what life was before,and who has always been there in the most painful
situations.
This is not the first time i read this short story but everytime when i read it,it makes me stop and think.Sometimes we as human,we may do the same as what the girl has done.We forget to help the poor when we are rich;we forget to teach the junior staff when we become their senior; we forget to appreciate the good job that our subordinates have done when we become their superior;we forget the staff’s contribution and hard work when we become their boss…..there are moments that we may have forgotten that someone has helped us when we were poor,how our senior has spent their time to teach and train us patiently,how our superiors and bosses have encouraged and rewarded us for our good job.
Some may say no one has done all those to me.It does not matter.I would say you are the blessed one because you are rich(not only in monetary term).So,you may start to help,bless,teach,learn to appreciate and encourage others,playing the role as the "blind boyfriend".You bless others,God will bless you abundantly.
