This is wat i read this morning, very meaningful…
A boy was born to a couple after eleven years of marriage.
They were a loving couple and the boy was the gem of their eyes.
When the boy was around two years old, one morning the husband saw a medicine bottle open.
He was late for office so he asked his wife to cap the bottle and keep it in the cupboard.
His wife, preoccupied in the kitchen totally forgot the matter.
The boy saw the bottle and playfully went to the bottle fascinated by its color and 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. He died.
The mother was stunned. She was terrified how she was going 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 five words.
QUESTIONS:
1. What were the five words?
2. What is the implication of this story?
ANSWER:
The husband just said "I am with you Darling".
The husband’s totally unexpected reaction is a 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 had taken time to keep the bottle away, this would not have happened.
No one is to be blamed. 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. If everyone can look at life with this kind of perspective,
there would be much fewer problems in the world.
"A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step." Take
off all your envies, jealousies, unforgiveness, selfishness, and fears.
And you will find things are actually not as difficult as you think.
MORAL OF THE STORY
This story is really worth reading. Sometimes we spend time in asking
who is responsible or whom to blame, whether in a relationship, in a
job or with the people we know. By this way we miss out some warmth in human relationship.
After i read, it makes me realize that we always used to blame others when things went wrong, but actually it’s not. As the story mentioned, there is no point in finding fault with the mother, even when things go wrong in our life, there is no point to finding fault with others. Just be courage and positive, life will be full with colors and hopes…
Have a nice and blessed day…..
我对着blog,有百分百的认同!!!
people r always find who should b balme when meet problem or get into trouble.
people usually think tat when found out who make the problem then scold them,the problem will solve as they ask the one who make out the problem to solve it.
I 100% not agree with this,
no one is hope any problem happen, if someone makes a problem, i think the 1st thing should do is ::all help to solve the problem.
i sure tat the one will feel 内疚 eventhough no one scold him,
no one scold \ blame is equal to the most terible hukuman ady,i think the one will always remember the mistakes they did.
>in this blog
i think the husband did the right thing, he know tat if he blame his wife also cant change anything, n he also know tat it isn’t a mistakes of his wife at all.
this my comment abt this blog.
hope tat people will reliaze this soon…
always solve the problem 1st!
i know the one will know if they did mistakes…
