6.14.2001 (Thur) Sunny A pair of shoes, A pair of legs. No rose without a thorn. It's like you can never put up with EVERYONE around you. It must have someone to make you angry once in a while. At least one or two. To take care of a rose, you're NOT going to cut the thorn out, but to learn how to prevent to be pricked by the thorn. And....to prevent hurting the rose by your own thorn. A lot of things, when you missed them, you missed them. A pair of new shoes and a pair of legs "I always want to have a new pair of shoes until I saw a man without a pair of legs." Have you ever heard this story before? I heard this story a few years ago, and recently, a friend of mine told me this story once again. We always complain what we didn't have, but we never look back and see what we've already had. Even we're not handsome or pretty, good health is blissful. Beauty is just a plus. Just imagine, in the hospital, lots of patients can't even drink water. Even we don't have brilliance of mind, we've had a warm family. Somebody doesn't even have a home, and they also don't have anyone to care of them. It's hard to overcome ..Jealousy.. You will jealous, and I will as well. When you're jealous of other people's lucks, love, friendship, and wealth, have you treasured what you've got? Love is endless, but life is short. When you love a person, you had better not to complain what he/she didn't give you. You ought to treasure what he/she had already given you. Look further and deeper with your heart, not your eyes. Did you pay attention to the people and things around you? Do you think that you are actually very blissful? You have a pair of legs. You just don't have a new pair of shoes; however, somebody doesn't even have legs. :) Next time, when you are complaining, jealous, I hope you remember this story. HUGS* esp for all my friends.
