Awww I have to share this with you!This is a very touching story and probably fit in the current situation of some people's life and big events that have happened.I got this story from an E-mail of my friend while ago but I just read it today and became very thoughtful.
So here's the story:
Once upon a time there were two travelling angels who wanted to have a break.Therefore they stayed overnight at the house of a rich family. This family was very impolite and refused to let the angels sleep in their guestroom.Instead of this the angels got a small place in the cold cellar of the house. As they laid them down on the cold floor, the older angel discovered a hole in the wall of the cellar and repaired it. As the younger angel asked him "why?", the older one answered him, "Things are not always what they supposed to be..."The next night they slept over at the house of a very poor old couple, who were very hospitable and friendly.After the couple shared the food they had with the two angels, they let them sleep in their bed. where they had a comfortable sleep.When the sun rose the next day, the two angels found the couple, crying. The only "thing" they had, who brought them their income died on the field: It was their precious cow.The younger angel got angry and asked the older angel why he let that happen to them. "The first man and his family owned everything and you helped them" he claimed. "The couple had just a very few things and you let their cow die on the field!"
"Things are not always what they supposed to be!", said the older angel."When we slept in the cold cellar of the rich family, I noticed that there was gold in the hole. And because the host was filled with greed and didn't want to share his fortune, I sealed the hole so that he won't be able to find his gold. When we slept in the bed of the poor family's house that night, the angel of death came to take the woman away. I gave him the cow instead.Things are not always what they supposed to be!"
Sometimes things will always turn out differently if they don't turn out the way they should. If you have faith, you just have to trust that things will turn out positively for you.You might not notice the positive effects but as time goes by you finally will.Many people come into our life and go away pretty soon.Some people become friends of ours and stay for a long time, leaving beautiful footprints in our hearts when they go. And we are very similiar to them because we become friends.
Yesterday is history.Tomorrow is a mystery.Today is a present. That's why it's called: Present.
Life is something special. That's why: Live every moment to the fullest, life is not a rehearsal!
PS: I never really noticed the fact that Present also means present (as in gift) [at least not on purpose].
