TOUCHING SAD STORY
A boy was born to a couple after eleven
years of marriage. They were a loving couple and the
boy was the apple of their eyes.
When the boy was around two years old,
one morning the husband saw a medicine bottle
open. He was late for work so he asked the wife to
cap the bottle and keep it in the cupboard.

The mother, preoccupied in the kitchen,
totally forgot the matter.
The boy saw the bottle and playfully went to
the bottle and, fascinated with its color, 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,
where he died. The mother was stunned.
She was terrified
how 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 four words.
What do you think were the four words?
The husband just said
.

“I Love You Darling”

MORAL LESSON:
The husband’s totally unexpected reaction is
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 have taken time to keep
the bottle away, this will not have happened. No
point in attaching blame. 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.

NOTE:
Sometimes we spend time asking who is
responsible or who to blame, whether in a
relationship, in a job or with the people we know.
We miss out some warmth in human relationships,
in giving each other support. After all, shouldn’t
forgiving someone we love be the easiest thing in
the world to do? Treasure what you have.
Don’t multiply pain, anguish and suffering by holding on to
forgiveness. If everyone can look at life with this kind of
perspective, there would be much fewer problems
in the world.

It’s amusing when you pull all of your efforts,
to help someone.
But when you need help,
they don’t even take a glance at you.
