Priceless!


A giant ship engine failed. The ship's owners tried one expert after another, but none of them could figure out how to fix the engine. Then they brought in an old man in his eighties who had been fixing ships since he was a young man. He carried a large bag of tools with him, and when he arrived, he immediately went to work. He inspected the engine very carefully from top to bottom. Two of the ship's owners were there watching this man and hoping he would know what to do. After looking things over, the old man reached into his bag and pulled out a small hammer. He gently tapped something. Instantly, the engine lurched into life. He carefully put his hammer away. The engine was fixed! A week later, the owners received a bill from the old man for ten thousand dollars. "What?!" the owners exclaimed. "He hardly did anything!" So they wrote the old man a note saying, "Please send us an itemized bill." The man sent a bill that read: Tapping with a hammer...... ......... $ 2.00 Knowing where to tap.......... ......... $ 9,998.00

A Story to live by...


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.'



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..



Life Is a
Gift




Today

before you say an unkind word - Think of someone who can't speak.



Before
you complain about the taste of your food - Think of someone
who has nothing to eat.



Before
you complain about your husband or wife - Think of someone
who's crying out to GOD for a companion.



Today
before you complain about life - Think of someone who died
too early
on this earth.



Before
you complain about your children - Think of someone who
desires children but they're barren.



Before
you argue about your dirty house someone didn't clean or
sweep - Think of the people who are living in the streets.




Before
whining about the distance you drive Think of someone who
walks the same distance with their feet.



And when
you are tired and complain about your job - Think of the
unemployed, the disabled, and those who wish they had your
job.



But
before you think of pointing the finger or condemning
another -
Remember that not one of us is without imperfection.



And when
depressing thoughts seem to get you down - Put a smile on
your face and think: you're alive and still
around.
