hhmm.. todays cold as hell joe! but mostly wind... wells while i was cruzin around myspace i found this:
A well-known speaker started off his seminar by holding up a 20$ bill. In the room of 200 people, he asked, "Who would like this 20$ bill?" Hands started going up. He said, "I am going to give this 20$ to one of you but first, let me do this. He proceeded to crumple up the 20$ bill and then he asked, "Who still wants it?" Still hands were up in the air. Well, he replied, "What if i do this?" And he dropped it on the ground and started to grind it into the floor with his shoe. He picked it up, now crumpled and dirty. "Now, who still wants it?" Still hands went into the air. He said.
"My friends, we have all learned a very valuble lesson. No matter what I did to the money, you still wanted it because it did not decrease in value. It was still worth 20$."
Many times in our lives we are dropped, crumpled and grounded into the dirt by the decisions we make and the circumstances that comes our way. We feel as though we are worthless. But no matter what happends or what will happen, you will never loose your value.
Dirty, clean, crumpled or finely creased, you are still PRICELESS to thoes who DO LOVE YOU! The worth of our lives comes not in what we do or who we know, but by WHO WE ARE. Everyone is special and "DONT EVER FORGET IT!"
If you do not passt his on, you may never know the lives it could touch and the hurting hearts it speaks to, or the HOPE that it can bring. Count your blessings, not your problems. And remember: amateurs built the ark but professionals built the Titanic.
If GOD brings you to it-- He will bring you through it.
