WORTH
Dear Robert, I have this story to share with my neighbours. Please
forward to them. Thanks.
KNOW YOUR WORTH author
unknown
A well known speaker started off his seminar by holding up a $20
bill.....
In the room of 200, he asked, "Who would like this &20
bill?" Hands started going up. He said, "I am going to give this $20 to one
of you but first, let me do this...."
He proceeded to crumple the dollar
bill up. He then asked, "Who still wants it?" Still the hands were up in the
air. Well, he replied, "What if I do this?" And he dropped it on the ground and
started to grind it into the floor with his shoe. He picked it up, now crumpled
and dirty. "Now who still wants it?" Still the hands went into the
air. "My friends, you 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 $20."
Many times in our lives, we are
dropped, crumpled, and ground into the dirt by the decisions we make and the
circumstances that come our way. We feel as though we are worthless. 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 love you.
The worth of our lives come not in what we do or who we
know, but by WHO WE ARE. YOU ARE SPECIAL - DON'T EVER FORGET
IT.
May all of us be well and
happy.
Regards. Cheng Eng
