got this email from someone .. hmm .. found it rather meaningful .. and uplifting .. so ya!. . sharing it with u guys!!
A boy was born to a couple after eleven years of marriage.
They were a loving couple and the boy was the gem of their eyes. When the
boy was around two years old, one morning the husband saw a medicine bottle
open. He was late for office 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 fascinated by its
color and 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.
He died.
The mother was stunned. She was terrified how she was going 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 five words.
QUESTIONS :
1. What were the five words ?
2. What is the implication of this story?

ANSWER :
The husband just said "I am with 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 happened.
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.
MORAL OF THE STORY
This story is really worth reading. Sometimes we spend time in asking who is
responsible or whom to blame, whether in a relationship, in a job or with
the people we know. By this way we miss out some warmth in human
relationship.
Have a nice and blessed day ...
