>>>I ran into a stranger as he passed by,
>>>"Oh excuse me please" was my reply.
>>
>>>He said, "Please excuse me too;
>>>I wasn't watching for you."
>>
>>>We were very polite, this stranger and I.
>>>We went on our way and we said goodbye.
>>
>>>But at home a different story is told,
>>>How we treat our loved ones, young and old.
>>
>>>Later that day, cooking the evening meal,
>>>My son stood beside me very still.
>>
>>>When I turned, I nearly knocked him down.
>>>"Move out of the way," I said with a frown.
>>
>>>He walked away, his little heart broken.
>>>I didn't realize how harshly I'd spoken.
>>
>>>While I lay awake in bed,
>>>God's still small voice came to me and said,
>>
>>>"While dealing with a stranger,
>>>common courtesy you use,
>>>but the family you love, you seem to abuse.
>>
>>>Go and look on the kitchen floor,
>>>You'll find some flowers there by the door.
>>
>>>Those are the flowers he brought for you.
>>>He picked them himself: pink, yellow and blue.
>>
>>>He stood very quietly not to spoil the surprise,
>>>you never saw the tears that filled his little eyes."
>>
>>>By this time, I felt very small,
>>>And now my tears began to fall.
>>
>>>I quietly went and knelt by his bed;
>>>"Wake up, little one, wake up," I said.
>>
>>>"Are these the flowers you picked for me?"
>>>He smiled, "I found 'em, out by the tree.
>>
>>>I picked 'em because they're pretty like you.
>>>I knew you'd like 'em, especially the blue."
>>
>>>I said, "Son, I'm very sorry for the way I acted today;
>>>I shouldn't have yelled at you that way."
>>>He said, "Oh, Mom, that's okay.
>>>I love you anyway."
>>
>>>I said, "Son, I love you too,
>>>and I do like the flowers, especially the blue."
>>
>>>FAMILY
>>>Are you aware that if we died tomorrow, the company
>>>that we are working for could easily replace us in
>>>a matter of days.
>>>But the family we left behind will feel the loss
>>>for the rest of their lives.
>>
>>>And come to think of it, we pour ourselves more
>>>into work than into our own family,
>>>an unwise investment indeed,
>>>don't you think?
>>>So what is behind the story?
>>
>>>Do you know what the word FAMILY means?
>>>FAMILY = (F)ATHER (A)ND (M)OTHER (I) (L)OVE (Y)OU
>>
>>>Pass this message to 7 people except you and me .
>>
>>>You will receive a miracle tomorrow.
>>>Don't ignore and God will bless you
