| BOX OF KISSES |
|
| The story goes that some time ago,a man had punished his 3 year old daughter for wasting a roll of gold wrapping paper.Money was tight and he became infuriated when the child tried to decorate an emty box. |
| Never the less,the little girl brought the gift to her father the next morning,and said,"this is for you, Daddy."He was embarrassed by his earlier overreaction but, his anger flared again when he seen the box was empty. |
| He yelled at her,"Dont you know that when you give someone a gift you should put something in it?"The little girl looked up at him with tears in her eyes and said,"Oh Daddy,"it's not empty,I blew kisses into the box.All for you Daddy. |
| The Father was crushed,he put his arms around his little girl,and he begged for her forgiveness. |
| An accident took the life of the child a short time later,and it is told that the man kepted the gold box by his bed for many years,and whenever he was discouraged,he would take out an imaginary kiss and remember the love of the child who had put it there. |
| In a very real sense,each of us as humans, have been given a gold container filled with unconditional love and kisses from our children, friends, family,and God.There is no more precious possesion anyone could hold.So,let us open a box of kisses that some one has given us today or.......... give a box to some one who needs it.Your gift of love will be remembered for a lot longer than any other gift ever given. |
