Last week the news papers here in Chennai carried a heart-breaking news on the first page. A 16 year old boy takes his father's motorbike and crashes to death. By the time he reaches the hospital, he is declared brain dead. His bereaved parents took a brave decision to donate his organs..and today the boy lives in multiple lives..a young girl got a new lease of life with his heart..so does patients who got his kidneys, liver and the eyes...
God's ways of taking and giving life..no body can comprehend..

Seeing is Believing....
A blind boy sat on the steps of a building with a hat by his feet. He held
up a sign which said: "I am blind, please help." There were only a few
coins in the hat.
A man was walking by. He took a few coins from his pocket and dropped them into the hat. He then took the sign, turned it around, and wrote some
words. He put the sign back so that everyone who walked by would see the
new words.
Soon the hat began to fill up. A lot more people were giving money to the
blind boy. That afternoon the man who had changed the sign came to see how things were. The boy recognized his footsteps and asked, "Were you the one who changed my sign this morning? What did you write?"
The man said, "I only wrote the truth. I said what you said but in a
different way."
What he had written was: "Today is a beautiful day and I cannot see it."
Do you think the first sign and the second sign were saying the same
thing?
Of course both signs told people the boy was blind. But the first sign
simply said the boy was blind. The second sign told people they were so
lucky that they were not blind. Should we be surprised that the second
sign was more effective?
Moral of the Story: Be thankful for what you have. Be creative. Be
innovative. Think differently and positively.
Invite others towards good with wisdom. Live life with no excuse and love
with no regrets. When life gives you a 100 reasons to cry, show life that
you have 1000 reasons to smile. Face your past without regret. Handle your present with confidence. Prepare for the future without fear. Keep the
faith and drop the fear.
Great men say, "Life has to be an incessant process of repair and
reconstruction, of discarding evil and developing goodness.... In the
journey of life, if you want to travel without fear, you must have the
ticket of a good conscience."
The most beautiful thing is to see a person smiling...
And even more beautiful is, knowing that you are the reason behind it!!!
