ALWAYS APPRECIATE THE LITTLE THINGS

A married lady was expecting a birthday gift from her husband. For
many months she had admired a beautiful diamond ring in a showroom,
and knowing her husband could afford it, she told him that was all
she wanted.

As her birthday approached, this lady awaited signs that her husband
had purchased the diamond ring. Finally, on the morning of her
birthday, her husband called her into his study room. Her husband
told her how proud he was to have such a good wife, and told her how
much he loved her. He handed her a beautiful wrapped gift box.
Curious, the wife opened the box and found a lovely, leather-bound
Bhagvad Geetha, with the wife's name embossed in gold.

Angrily, she raised her voice to her husband and said, "With all your
money you give me this Book? And stormed out of the house, leaving her husband.

Many years passed and the lady was very successful in business.. She
managed to settle for a more beautiful house and a wonderful family,
but realized her ex-husband was very old, and thought perhaps she
should go to visit him. She had not seen him for many years. But
before she could make arrangements, she received a telegram telling
her that her ex-husband had passed away, and willed all of his
possessions to her. She needed to come back immediately and take care
of things.

When she arrived at her ex-husband's house, sudden sadness and regret
filled her heart. She began to search through her ex-husband's
important papers and saw the still new Bhagavad Geetha, just as she had left it years before.

With tears, she opened the Bhagavad Gita and began to turn the pages.
Her ex-husband had carefully underlined a verse.

As she read those words, a tiny package dropped from the back of the
Bhagavad Geetha with a Diamond ring, with her name engraved on it -- the same diamond ring which she saw at the showroom. On the tag was the date of her birth, and the words...'LUV U ALWAYS'...

How many times do we miss God's blessings, because they are not
packaged as we expected? I trust you enjoyed this. Pass it on to
others.

Do not spoil what you have, by desiring what you have not; but
remember that what you now have was once among the things you only
hoped for.

IF YOUR GIFT IS NOT PACKAGED THE WAY YOU WANT IT, IT'S BECAUSE IT IS
BETTER PACKAGED THE WAY IT IS! ALWAYS APPRECIATE LITTLE THINGS; THEY
USUALLY LEAD YOU TO BIGGER THINGS!

"The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or
even touched.. They must be felt with the heart.
