Great Love Stories
Love Is The Solution
A boy was born to a couple after eleven years of marriage.
They were a loving couple and the boy was the apple of their
eyes. When the boy was around two years old, one morning
the husband saw a medicine bottle open. He was late for
work so he asked the wife to cap the bottle and keep it
in the cupboard. The mother, preoccupied in the kitchen,
totally forgot the matter.
The boy saw the bottle and playfully went to the bottle
and, fascinated with its color, drank it all. It happened
to be a poisonous medicine meant for adults in small dosages.
When the child collapsed, the mother hurried him to the
hospital, where he died. The mother was stunned. She was
terrified how to face her husband.
When the distraught father came to the hospital and saw
the dead child, he looked at his wife and uttered just four
words.
What do you think were the four words?
The husband just said "I Love You Darling"
The husband's totally unexpected reaction is proactive
behavior. The child is dead. He can never be brought back
to life. There is no point in finding fault with the mother.
Besides, if only he have taken time to keep the bottle away,
this will not have happened. No point in attaching blame.
She had also lost her only child. What she needed at that
moment was consolation and sympathy from the husband. That
is what he gave her.
Sometimes we spend time asking who is responsible or who
to blame, whether in a relationship, in a job or with the
people we know. We miss out some warmth in human relationship
in giving each other support. After all, shouldn't forgiving
someone we love be the easiest thing in the world to do?
Treasure what you have. Don't multiply pain, anguish and
suffering by holding on to forgiveness.
If everyone can look at life with this kind of perspective,
there would be much fewer problems in the world.
Take off all your envies, jealousies, unwillingness to
forgive, selfishness, and fears and you will find things
are actually not as difficult as you think.
