This is from a text message I received earlier. I thought of sharing it here:
"...a toy was given to a boy and he liked it a lot. As time passed by, the toy became dirty and old. The boy's birthday came and he received a new toy to play with. So he threw the old toy and played with the new one.
After a few weeks, the new toy started to break...he suddenly realized that the old toy was better...
now, he can never find the old toy and he had no toy to play with anymore.
Who do you think suffered much pain?"
* Sometimes, we never knew what we have until we lose them. That their presence seems unimportant to us...
We can never know the value of people around us unless they're out of sight. That their affection would never ran out. Somehow they do...
We can never make it a habit to get rid of old things and replace them with new ones...for you are not playing with toys...you are with the people who accepted you for who you are...cared for you the best way they could.
So, do not take anyone for granted.
One may also be hurting but remind yourself...
"When one leaves you, more tend to show up."
That the pain caused to you by one person is nothing as compared to the kindness others bring...
