A heart to heart QUOTES - FABLE

There is a wonderful fable that tells of a young girl who is walking through a meadow when she sees a butterfly impaled upon a thorn.   Very carefully she releases it and the butterfly starts to fly away.  Then it comes back and changes into a beautiful good fairy. “For your kindness,”  she tells the little girl,  “ I will grant you your fondest wish.”  The little girl thinks for a moment and replies, “ I want to be happy.”  The fairy leans toward her and whispers in her ear and then suddenly vanishes.

As the girl grow,  no one in the land was more happy than she.  Whenever anyone asked her for the secret of her happiness,  she would only smile and say, “ I listened to a good fairy.”

As she grow quite old,  the neighbours were afraid the fabulous secret might die with her.  “Tell us, please,”  they begged, “tell us what the fairy said.”  The now lovely old lady simply smiled and said,  “She told me that everyone  no matter how secure they seemed,  had need of me!”

We all need each other.

LISTEN

When I ask you to listen to me and you start giving advice,  you have not done what I asked.

When I ask you to listen to me and you begin to tell me why I shouldn’t feel that way,  you are trampling on my feelings.

When I ask you to listen to me and you feel you have to do something to solve my problems,  you have failed me,  strange as that may seem.

Perhaps that’s why prayer works for some people.
Because God is mute and He doesn’t offer advice or try to fix things.
He just listens and trusts you to work it out for yourself.

So please,  just listen and hear me.   And if you want to talk,  wait a few minutes for your turn and I promise I’ll listen to you.

A true story –

Sometime ago,  at the Seattle Olympics,  nine athletes,  all mentally and physically challenged,  were standing on the start line for the 100 M race.  The gun fired and the race began.   Not everyone was running, but everyone wanted to participate and win.  They ran in three,  a boy tripped and fell,  did a few somersaults and started crying.  The other eight heard him crying.  They slowed down and looked behind them.  They stopped and came back.  All of them...

A girl with Down’s Syndrome sat down next to him,  hugged him and asked, “feeling better now?”

Then all nine walked shoulder to shoulder to the finish line.

The whole crowd stood up and applauded.  And the applause lasted a very long time.

People who witnessed this still talk about it.  Why?

Because deep inside us we know that the most important thing is life is much more than winning for ourselves.

The most important thing in life is to help others win.  Even if that means slowing down and changing our own race.

“ A candle loses nothing if it is used to light another one.”

Silence does not mean yes.  Sometimes it means I’m tired of explaining to people who don’t even care to understand.

(((Heart to heart, MGV♥2♥♥))

Others may say “bad things” about me.  I don’t need to go around and explain myself.  Because people who associated with me,  spent our times together or bonded together,  will never believe you.   Simply because I have taken cared of my credibility and most of all my values.

“We make our world by the words we speak...it’s a different world today than it was when we were young many moons ago.”

(((Heart to heart, MGV♥2♥♥))

“The people who mean something to your life are not rated “the best”,  don’t have the most money,  have not won the greatest prizes.  They are the ones who care about you,  take care of you.  Those who,  no matter what,  stay close by.”
