A well-known speaker started off his seminar holding up a R200 note.
In the room of 200 he asked, "Who would like this R200
note?" Hands started going up. He said, "I am going to give
this R200 to one of you, but first, let me do this. "
He proceeded to crumple up the R200 note. He then asked,
"Who still wants it...?" Still the hands were up in the air.
"Well," he replied, "What if I do this?" & he dropped it
on the ground & started to grind it into the floor with
his shoe. He picked it up, now crumpled & dirty. "Now,
who still wants it?" Still the hands went into the air.
"My friends, we have all learned a very valuable lesson. No
matter what I did to the money, you still wanted it because
it did not decrease in value. It was still worth R200. Many
times in our lives, we are dropped(n) , crumpled:( &
ground into the dirt:s by the decisions we make & the
circumstances that come our way.:O We feel as
though we are worthless.</3 But no matter what has
happened or what will happen, you will never lose your
value. ;;)
Dirty or clean, crumpled or finely creased, you are still priceless to those who DO LOVE you.<3 The worth of our lives comes not in what we do or who we know, but by WHO WE ARE. You are special - Don't EVER forget it. " If you do not pass this on, you may never know the lives it touches, the hurting hearts it speaks to, or the hope that it may bring.
Count your blessings, not your problems
