Hey guys,
I didn't know where to post this, so I just put it here, but feel free to move it! Basically, this is just an inspiring message for all TH users, creds to Agoraphobia♥ for finding it ![]() WORTH THE READ, I PROMISE A friend just posted this and I wanted to pass it on… A well-known speaker started off his seminar holding up a $20.00 bill. In the room of 200, 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. He then asked, “Who still wants it…?” Still the 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 the hands went into the air. “My friends, we have all learned a very valuable 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 ground into the dirt by the decisions we make and the circumstances that come our way. We feel as though we are worthless. But no matter what has happened or what will happen, you will never lose your value. Dirty or clean, crumpled or finely creased, you are still priceless to those who DO LOVE you. The worth of our lives comes not in what we do or who we know, but by WHO WE ARE. You are special-Don’t EVER forget it.” If you do not pass this on, you may never know the lives it touches, the hurting hearts it speaks to, or the hope that it may bring. Count your blessings, not your problems!! "Those 3 words are said too much, but not enough" <3 "Death is not the greatest loss in life. The greatest loss is what dies inside while still alive. Never surrender." PM/VM me if you ever need someone to talk to or just want to chat (: http://liveforthememories.tumblr.com/ |

Wow, that is inspirational.
And it's interesting that he used money, we always value money, but we don't always value people... *Goes away and ponders*

I like this! I've never heard that one before
"Once a little boy sent me a charming card with a little drawing on it. I loved it. I sent him a card and I drew a picture of a Wild Thing on it. I wrote, “Dear Jim: I loved your card.” Then I got a letter back from his mother and she said, “Jim loved your card so much he ate it.” That to me was one of the highest compliments I’ve ever received. He didn’t care that it was an original Maurice Sendak drawing or anything. He saw it, he loved it, he ate it." |

That's such an amazing idea, and it's just such a shame that people don't see this in themselves.
I'll definitely pass this on to people, I think it's wonderful, and you're wonderful for passing it onto us. Thank you for that, and thank you for making me think about it.
