USED vs LOVED

While a man was polishing his new car,
his 4 yr old son picked up a stone
and scratched lines on the side of the car.

In anger, the man took the child's hand

and hit it many times not realizing
he was using a wrench.

At the hospital, the child lost all his fingers

due to multiple fractures.

When the child saw his father.....

with painful eyes he asked, 'Dad when will my fingers grow back?'

The man was so hurt and speechless;

he went back to his car and kicked it a lot of times.

Devastated by his own actions......

sitting in front of that car he looked at the scratches;

the child had written 'LOVE YOU DAD'.
The next day that man committed suicide. . .

Anger and Love have no limits;

choose the latter to have a beautiful, lovely
life & remember this:

Things are to be used and people are to be loved.
The problem in today's world is

that people are used while things are loved.

Let's try always to keep this thought in mind:

Things are to be used,
People are to be loved.

Watch your thoughts; they become words.
Watch your words; they become actions.
Watch your actions; they become habits.
Watch your habits; they become character;
Watch your character; it becomes your destiny.

I'm glad a friend forwarded this to me as a reminder..

I hope you have a good day no matter what problems you may face

it's the only day you'll have before it's over.

God bless u.

Wahhhh... terkedu akak baca entri nih! Teringat la waktu Kirana kecik2 dulu. Bila terpecah gelas waktu hari raya, mesti mak Kirana akan cakap,"Hmmm... pecah la, takpe. Ada alasan mak nak beli baru!" Len la plak org tua nih! Cam tak caya mdengar nya.

love we never realize is always hurting...that is y ALLAH seems to hide from us, then we are hurting ourselves for not loving HIM...Ramadhan comes, the sign He wants our attention...dont just let it go...make it sweetest ramadhan ever...APe aku mencarut ni???
