The Blind man

Hello all #101 Motivational readers, This wonderful little piece just came to me and I thought it was just so appropriate for us all that I had to share it with you. ___________________________________________ One day there was a blind man sitting on the steps of a building with a hat by his feet and a sign that read: "I am blind, please help". A creative publicist was walking by and stopped to observe. The blind man only had a few coins in his hat, so the publicist dropped a few more coins into the hat and without asking for permission took the sign, turned it around, and wrote another announcement. He then placed the sign back down and left. That afternoon the creative publicist returned to the blind man and noticed that the hat was filled with bills and coins. Hearing the approach the blind man recognised his footsteps and asked if it was him who had changed his sign and wanted to know what he had written? The publicist responded: "Nothing that wasn't true, I just rewrote your sign differently". He smiled and went on his way. The blind man never knew but his new sign read: "TODAY IS SPRING AND I CANNOT SEE IT". Change your strategy when something isn't working and it will probably be for the better. HAVE FAITH THAT CHANGE CAN IMPROVE OUR LIVES

Hi Tim This was an excellent story of someone who made a drastic change in someone's daily life situation, what a neat thing he did. My grandmother was also blind, but you could or would never had known it. She cooked, got around the house, went to church, cleaned house etc.. A strong lady she was!!! ------------------------------------ Place a FREE AD on me: http://FreeAdTraffic.com
