Another story that I received recently. Enjoy. :)

@@@The warmth in human relatinoship@@@

A boy was born to a couple after eleven years of marriage. They were a loving couple and the boy was the gem of their eyes.

When the boy was around two years old, one morning the husband saw a medicine bottle open. He was late for office so he asked his wife to cap the bottle and keep it in the cupboard. His wife, preoccupied in the kitchen totally forgot the matter.

The boy saw the bottle and playfully went to the bottle fascinated by itscolor and drank it all. It happened to be a poisonous medicine meant foradults in small dosages.

When the child collapsed, the mother hurried him tothe hospital. He died. The mother was stunned! She was terrified how she was going to face herhusband.

When the distraught father came to the hospital and saw the deadchild, he looked at his wife and uttered just five words.

Hey, do you have any idea where were the five words?

What does this story tell us?

The husband just said "I am with you Darling".

The husband's totally unexpected reaction is a 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 had taken time to keep the bottle away, this would not have happened. No one is to be blamed. Shehad also lost her only child. What she needed at that moment was consolation and sympathy from the husband. That is what he gave her.

If everyone can look at life with this kind of perspective, there would be much fewer problems in the world. "A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step."

Take off all your envies, jealousies, unforgiveness, selfishness, andfears. And you will find things are actually not as difficult as you think.

You know sometimes we spend time in asking who is responsible or whom to blame, whether in a relationship, in a job orwith the people we know. By this way we miss out some warmth in human relationship.
