SOMETHING INSPIRATIONAL

yes ..forwarded mail AGAIN ..

I have in my hands two boxes,
Which God gave me to hold.
He said, "Put all your sorrows in the black box,
And all your joys in the gold."

I heeded His words, and in the two boxes,
Both my joys and sorrows I stored,
But though the gold became heavier each day,
The black was as light as before.

With curiosity, I opened the black,
I wanted to find out why,
And I saw, in the base of the box, a hole,
Which my sorrows had fallen out by.

I showed the hole to God, and mused,
"I wonder where my sorrows could be!"
He smiled a gentle smile and said,
"My child, they're all here with me.."

I asked God, why He gave me the boxes,
Why the gold and the black with the hole?
"My child, the gold is for you to count your blessings,
The black is for you to let go."


very true horh ..
constantly count our blessings and let go of our sorrows .. :D i've been trying to do tat .. and yup .. it really helps me to move on with life :)

The more you give, the more you get-
The more you laugh, the less you fret-
The more you do unselfishly,The more you live abundantly...
The more of everything you share, The more you'll always have to spare-
The more you love, the more you'll find that life is good and friends are kind...
For only what we give away enriches us from day to day.
