Dear Diary,
A well-known speaker started off his seminar by holding up $100 bill. In the room full of audience, he asked, "Who would like this $100 bill?" Everybody raised their hands.
He said, "I'm going to give this $100 to one of you but first, let me do this", and he crumpled up the bill. He asked again, "Who still wants it?". Still the hands were up in the air.
"Well", he replied, "What if I do this?" and he dropped it on the ground and started grind it into the floor with his shoes. He picked it up, now crumpled and dirty.
"Now, who still wants it?" Still the hands went into the air.
A valuable lesson from this inspirational story is no matter what we do to the money, it will not decrease in value. Same goes to our life. We are dropped, crumpled, and ground into the dirt by the decisions we make and the circumstances that come our way.
We feel as though as we are worthless. But no matter what has happened or what will happen, you will never lose our value.
Dirty or clean, crumpled or finely creased, you are still priceless to those who DO LOVE you. The worth of our life comes not in what we do or who we know, but by WHO WE ARE.....
So, don't you ever forget - you are special!!!!
Signed off for now,
LOLA
