“The best way to keep one’s word is not to give it.  ~Napoleon Bonaparte”

Another great article from Franciskong.com, a story came from the internet by an anonymous author…. (Anonymous is so great!), When i first read this story felt the shiver in my spine… Such an inspiration…

I just need to share this on my site as well…

With Eyes But Cannot See

Anonymous

A repost from franciskong.com

There was a blind girl who hated herself because she was blind. She hated everyone, except her loving boyfriend. He was always there for her. She told her boyfriend, “If I could only see the world, I will marry you.”

One day, someone donated a pair of eyes to her. When the bandages came off, she was able to see everything, including her boyfriend.

He asked her, “Now that you can see the world, will you marry me?”

The girl looked at her boyfriend and saw that he was blind. The sight of his closed eyelids shocked her. She hadn’t expected that. The thought of looking at them the rest of her life led her to refuse to marry him.

Her boyfriend left in tears, and days later wrote a note to her saying: “Take good care of your eyes, my dear, for before they were yours, they were mine.”

The sacrifice has been made but the gratitude was never there.

This is how the human brain often works when our status changes. Only a very few remember what life was like before, and who was always by their side in the most painful situations.

I have gone through this and so have you. How easy it is for people to forget. The sacrifices, the friendship, the love, the moments of help you have extended yet today, not only were they forgotten, the very people you have helped and loved have turned against you, hate you and even do their best to destroy you. Such is the state of the sinful heart. This is why Scriptures warn us against our own hearts. That the heart is hopelessly wicked and is bent towards plotting evil.

Just think about this. God has always been good yet people refuse to accept Him and continue to live a life that defies His Will and His Ways. All of us are ungrateful people and only by the Grace and Mercies of God are we delivered from ourselves.The moment one turns to Christ, God replaces the stony heart with a tender one and puts the indwelling Spirit and sets up residence in the life of the person. And this is the only way why and how people can truly change into a brand new life.

My Point of View….

Yes, It is one imperfection of a Human Soul, I have seen and encountered people, friends and love ones whenever their status change they just forget to look back and remember the life they used to have before…. There are times those people that helped them made them what they are now, they had given such sacrifices for you to reach whatever is your goal… and yet we tend to neglect what they have done. Appreciation is just enough…

Yup, Francis Kong is correct… Do not be ungrateful.

Just Be happy, you have a companion in life, a boyfriend, a girlfriend, a husband or wife, a son or daughter, a great circle of friends, supportive parents and family, a good job … and most of all, you have GOD.

Nothing could go wrong…. Just Smile…
