When you think of them that way......
A depressed man once told the monk that he had nothing left to live for.
"Everything is gone, life is hopeless," the man told him. "I'm living in the
depths of darkness. In fact, I've lost heart in life altogether."
The reverend smiled sympathetically. "Let's take a look at your situation," he
said calmly. On a sheet of paper he drew a vertical line down the middle. He
suggested that they list on the left side the things the man had lost, and on
the right, the things he had left with him now.
"You won't need that column on the right side," said the man sadly. "I have
nothing left."
The reverend asked, "When did your wife leave you?"
"What do you mean? She hasn't left me. My wife loves me!"
"That's great!" said the reverend enthusiastically. "Then that will be number
one in the right-hand column—Wife hasn't left. Now, when were your children
jailed?"
"That's silly. My children aren't in jail!"
"Good! That's number two in the right-hand column—Children not in jail," said
the reverend, jotting it down.
After a few more questions in the same vein, the man finally got the point and
smiled in spite of himself. "Funny, how things change when you think of them
that way," he said.
The man in this story did not realise the value of what he possessed in his
misery over what he did not have!
Have a great weekend!!!
Warm Regards
