A Few Words From A Wise Old Man
An old dying man was once asked what shocked him most about humankind and the reflection of his own life...
"That we get bored of being children, are in a rush to grow up, and then long to be children again.
That we lose our health to make money and then lose it to restore our health.
That by thinking anxiously about the future, we forget about the present, such that we have lived neither for the present nor the future.
That they live as if they will never die, and die as if they had never lived.
Then was asked what he felt the most important lessons of life were...
To learn that you cannot make anyone love you. What you can do is let yourself be loved.
To learn that what is most valuable is not what you have but who you have.
To learn that it is detrimental to compare yourselves to others. All will be judged individually and on their own merit.
To learn that a rich person is not the one who has the most, but who needs the least.
To learn that it only takes a few seconds to open profound wounds in persons we love, and many years to heal them.
To learn to forgive by practicing forgiveness.
To learn there are persons that love you dearly, but simply do not know how to express their emotions.
To learn that money can buy everything but happiness and your salvation.
To learn that two people can look at the same situation and see it totally differently.
To learn that a true friend is one who knows the intricacies of your faults and loves you anyway.
To learn that it is not always enough that you are forgiven by others, you must also forgive yourself.
People will forget what you said,
People will forget what you did,
People will never forget how you made them feelÂ…
