    Each Day Is A Gift

  • The 92-year-old, petite, well-poised and proud lady, who is fully dressed each morning by eight o'clock, with her hair fashionably coifed and makeup perfectly applied, even though she is legally blind, moved to a nursing home today.

    Her husband of 70 years recently passed away, making the move necessary.

    After many hours of waiting patiently in the lobby of the nursing home, she smiled sweetly when told her room was ready.

    As she maneuvered her walker to the elevator, I provided a visual description of her tiny room, including the eyelet sheets that had been hung on her window. "I love it," she stated with the enthusiasm of an eight-year-old having just been presented with a new puppy.

    "Mrs. Jones, you haven't seen the room .... just wait."

    "That doesn't have anything to do with it," she replied. "Happiness is something you decide on ahead of time. Whether I like my room or not doesn't depend on how the furniture is arranged, it's how I arrange my mind. I already decided to love it. It's a decision I make every morning when I wake up. I have a choice; I can spend the day in bed recounting the difficulty I have with the parts of my body that no longer work, or get out of bed and be thankful for the ones that do. Each day is a gift, and as long as my eyes open I'll focus on the new day and all the happy memories I've stored away, just for this time in my life."

    She went on to explain, "Old age is like a bank account, you withdraw from what you've put in. So, my advice to you would be to deposit a lot of happiness in the bank account of memories Thank you for your part in filling my Memory bank. I am still depositing."

    Moral:
    Each day is a gift.

  • Invaluable Words

  • A husband wakes up at home with a huge hangover.

    He forces himself to open his eyes and
    the first thing he sees is a couple of aspirins and a glass of water on the side table.

    He sits down and sees his clothing in front of him, all clean and pressed.
    He looks around the room and sees that it is in perfect order, spotless, clean.
    So is the rest of the house.

    He takes the aspirins and notices a note on the table.
    “Honey, breakfast is on the table, I left early to go grocery shopping. Love You!”

    Totally shocked with the note , he goes to the kitchen and sure enough there
    is a hot breakfast and the morning newspaper.

    His son is also at the table, eating.

    He asks, “Son, what happened last night?”

    His son says, “Well, you came home around 3 AM, drunk and delirious.

    Broke some crockery, puked in the hall, and gave yourself a black eye when you
    stumbled into the door”.

    Confused, the man asks, “So, why is everything in order and so clean,
    and breakfast is on the table waiting for me? I should expect a big quarrel with her!”

    His son replies, “Oh, that! Mom dragged you to the bedroom, and
    when she tried to take your clothes n shoes off, you said,

    “LADY LEAVE ME ALONE! I’M MARRIED!”
    Justify Full
    Moral:

    Self-induced hangover – $ 400.00
    Broken crockery – $ 800.00
    Breakfast – $ 10.00
    Saying the Right Thing While Drunk – "PRICELESS"
    ...

    There are truly some things that MONEY CAN'T BUY.

    Personality Developments


  • Don't compare yourself with any one in this world, If you compare, you are insulting yourself.

    No one will manufacture a lock without a key, Similarly God won't give problems without solutions.

    Life laughs at you when you are unhappy...., Life smiles at you when you are happy..., Life salutes you when you make others happy...

    Every successful person has a painful story, Every painful story has a successful ending.
    Accept the pain and get ready for success.

    Easy is to judge the mistakes of others. Difficult is to recognize our own mistakes.
    It is easier to protect your feet with slippers than to cover the earth with carpet.

    No one can go back and change a bad beginning; But anyone can start now and create a successful ending.
    If a problem can be solved, no need to worry about it.
    If a problem cannot be solved what is the use of worrying?


    If you miss an opportunity don't fill the eyes with tears. It will hide another better opportunity in front of you .

    "Changing the Face" can change nothing. But "Facing the Change" can change everything.
    Don't complain about others; Change yourself if you want peace.

    Mistakes are painful when they happen, But year's later collection of mistakes is called experience, which leads to success.

    Be bold when you loose and be calm when you win. Heated gold becomes ornament. Beaten copper becomes wires. Depleted stone becomes statue. So the more pain you get in life you become more valuable.
