The blind sign.

======================

A blind boy sat on the steps of a building with a hat by his

feet. He held up a sign which said: "I am blind, please help."

There were only a few coins in the hat.

A man was walking by. He took a few coins from his pocket and

dropped them into the hat. He then took the sign, turned it

around, and wrote some words. He put the sign back so that

everyone who walked by would see the new words.

Soon the hat began to fill up. A lot more people were giving

money to the blind boy.

That afternoon the man who had changed the sign came to see how

things were. The boy recognized his footsteps and asked,

"Were you the one who changed my sign this morning?”

“What did you write?"

The man said, "I only wrote the truth. I said what you said but

in a different way."

"I wrote: "Today is a beautiful day, but I cannot see it."

Both signs told people that the boy was blind. But the first

sign simply said the boy was blind. The second sign told people

that they were so blessed that they were not blind.

Should we be surprised that the second sign was more effective?

Moral of the Story:

Be thankful to GOD for what you have.

Be creative. Be innovative. Think differently and positively.

When life gives you a 100 reasons to cry, show life that you

have 1,000 reasons to smile.

After all, you can read this email.
