girl who hated herself because she was blind

a child leading a blind person

There was a blind girl who hated herself because she was blind.
She hated everyone, except her loving boyfriend. He was always there for her.
She told her boyfriend, 'If I could only see the world, I will marry you.'

One day, someone donated a pair of eyes to her. When the bandages came off, she was able to see everything, including her boyfriend.

He asked her,' Now that you can see the world, will you marry me?'
The girl looked at her boyfriend and saw that he was blind. The sight of his closed eyelids shocked her. She hadn't expected that. The thought of looking at them the rest of her life led her to refuse to marry him.

Her boyfriend left her in tears and days later wrote a note to her saying: 'Take good care of your eyes, my dear, for before they were yours, they were mine.'

This is how the human brain often works when our status changes.
Only a very few remember what life was like before, and who was always by their side in the most painful situations.

Life Is a Gift.

God has plans for me...

God cares for everything and sustains everything that He has created.

He who upholds the unnumbered worlds throughout immensity, at the same time cares for the wants of the little brown sparrow that sings its humble song without fear. When men go forth to their daily toil, as when they engage in prayer; when they lie down at night, and when they rise in the morning; when the reach man feasts in his palace, or when the poor man gathers his children about the scanty board, each is tenderly watched by the heavenly Father. No tears are shed that God does not notice. There is no smile that He does not mark.

What we think - not just what we say or do - has consequenses becuase what we think often translates into action.

Rice milk

1 cup well cooked brown rice

boiling water

3 tbsp cashew nut pieces or other light nuts

2 tsp honey

¼ tsp salt

additional water, cold

Blenderize all but the cold water, to a cream. Add the cold water while it is still blending. Chill or serve at once. For carob milk, just add: 3 tbsp carob flour, ½ tsp vanilla and a little more honey.

It will taste better if cold, than when hot, but is good both ways.
