HERE IS ONE STORY YOU WONT WANT TO FORGET!
"When I was a kid, Mum liked to
make food for dinner & I remember
one night in particular when she had
made dinner after a long, hard day at
work. On that evening, Mum placed a
plate of bread, jam and extremely
burned biscuits in front of my dad.
I remember waiting to see if anyone
noticed! Yet, all my dad did was
reach for his biscuit, smiled at my
Mum and asked me how my day was
at school. I don't remember what I
told him that night, but I do
remember hearing my Mum
apologize to my dad for burning the
biscuits. And I'll never forget what he
said: "Honey, I love burned biscuits."
Later that night, I went to kiss Daddy
good night and I asked him if he
really liked his biscuits burned. He
wrapped me in his arms and said,
"Your mum had a long hard day at work today and she's really tired. And besides... A burnt biscuit never hurt anyone but harsh words do!"
You know, life is full of imperfect
things...and imperfect people. I'm
not the best.
What I've learned over the years is
that learning to accept each others
faults and choosing to celebrate
each others differences, is one of the
most important keys to creating a
healthy, growing and lasting
relationship. So...please pass me a
biscuit. And yes, the burnt one will
do just fine!
Your views are most welcome...
