Special Message :::: by Tygg: 11:44am On Dec 23, 2015 |
A cruise ship met with an incident at sea, on the ship
was a pair of couple, after having made their way to
the lifeboat, they realized that there was only space for
one person left.
At this moment, the man pushed the woman behind
him and jumped onto the lifeboat himself.
The lady stood on the sinking ship and shouted one
sentence to her husband.
The teacher stopped and asked, "What do you think she
shouted?"
Most of the students excitedly answered, "I hate you! I
was blind!"
Now, the teacher noticed a boy who was silent
throughout, she got him to answer and he replied,
"Teacher, I believe she would have shouted - Take care
of our child!"
The teacher was surprised, asking "Have you heard this
story before?"
The boy shook his head, "Nope, but that was what my
mum told my dad before she died to disease".
The teacher lamented, "The answer is right".
The cruise sunk, the man went home and brought up
their daughter single-handedly.
Many years later after the death of the man, their
daughter found his diary while tidying his belongings.
It turns out that when parents went onto the cruise
ship, the mother was already diagnosed with a terminal
illness.
At the critical moment, the father rushed to the only
chance of survival.
He wrote in his diary, "How I wished to sink to the
bottom of the ocean with you, but for the sake of our
daughter, I can only let you lie forever below the sea
alone".
The story is finished, the class was silent.
The teacher knows that the student has understood the
moral of the story, that of the good and the evil in the
world, there are many complications behind them which
are hard to understand.
Which is why we should never only focus on the surface
and judge others without understanding them first.
Those who like to pay the bill, do so not because they
are loaded but because they value friendship above
money.
Those who take the initiative at work, do so not
because they are stupid but because they understand
the concept of responsibility.
Those who apologizes first after a fight, do so not
because they are wrong but because they value the
people around them.
Those who are willing to help you, do so not because
they owe you any thing but because they see you as a
true friend.
Those who often text you, do so not because they have
nothing better to do but because you are in their heart.
One day, all of us will get separated from each other;
we will miss our conversations of everything & nothing;
the dreams that we had. Days will pass by, months,
years, until this contact becomes rare....
One day our children will see our pictures and ask 'Who
are these people?' And we will smile with invisible tears
because a heart is touched with a strong word and you
will say: 'IT WAS THEM THAT I HAD THE BEST DAYS
OF MY LIFE WITH.... |
