A TRUE LOVER STORY!!
A boy was born to a couple after eleven years of marriage. They
were a loving couple and the boy was the apple of their eyes. When the
boy was around two years old, one morning the husband saw a medicine
bottle open. He was late for work so he asked the wife to cap the bottle
and keep it in the cupboard. The mother, preoccupied in the kitchen,
totally forgot the matter.
The boy saw the bottle and
playfully went to the bottle and, fascinated with its color, 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, where he died. The mother was stunned. She was terrified how
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 four words.
What do you think were the four words?
The husband just said "I Love You Darling"
The
husband's totally unexpected reaction is 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 have taken time to
keep the bottle away, this will not have happened. No
point in
attaching blame. 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.
Sometimes we spend time asking who is responsible
or who to blame, whether in a relationship, in a job or with the people
we know. We miss out some warmth in human relationship in giving each
other support. After all, shouldn't forgiving someone we love be the
easiest thing in the world to do? Treasure what you have. Don't multiply
pain, anguish and suffering by holding on to forgiveness.
If everyone can look at life with this kind of perspective, there would be much fewer problems in the world.
Take
off all your envies, jealousies, unwillingness to forgive, selfishness,
and fears and you will find things are actually not as difficult as you
think.
