Heart of
Gratitude
A blind boy sat on the steps of a building with a hat by
his feet. He held up a sign which said: "I am blind, please help." There were
only a few coins in the hat.

A man was walking by. He took a few coins from his
pocket and dropped them into the hat. He then took the sign, turned it around,
and wrote some words. He put the sign back so that everyone who walked by would
see the new words.
Soon the hat began to fill up. A lot more people were
giving money to the blind boy. That afternoon the man who had changed the sign
came to see how things were. The boy recognized his footsteps and asked, "Were
you the one who changed my sign this morning? What did you write?"

The man said, "I only wrote the truth. I said what you said but in a different
way."
I wrote: "Today is a beautiful day but I cannot see it."
Both signs told people that the boy was blind. But the
first sign simply said the boy was blind. The second sign told people that they
were so lucky that they were not blind. Should we be surprised that the second
sign was more effective?

Moral of the Story:
Be thankful for what you have. Be creative. Be innovative. Think differently and
positively.
When life gives you a 100 reasons to cry, show life that
you have 1000 reasons to smile
Face your past without regret. Handle your present with confidence. Prepare for
the future without fear. Keep the faith and drop the fear.
The most beautiful thing is to see a person smiling…
And even more beautiful is, knowing that you are the
reason behind it!!!
Enjoy your day with a heart of gratitude .
