Enjoy your day, and don't forget to smile

A woman came out of her house and saw 3 old men with long white beards sitting in her front yard. She did not recognize them. She said "I don't think I know you, but you must be hungry. Please come in and have something to eat."

"Is the man of the house home?", they asked.



"No", she replied. "He's out."

"Then we cannot come in", they replied.

In the evening when her husband came home, she told him what had happened.

"Go tell them I am home and invite them in!"

The woman went out and invited the men in"

"We do not go into a House together," they replied.



"Why is that?" she asked.



One of the old men explained: "His name is Wealth," he said pointing to one of his friends, and said pointing to another one, "He is Success, and I am Love." Then he added, "Now go in and discuss with your husband which one of us you want in your home."



The woman went in and told her husband what was said. Her husband was overjoyed. "How nice!!", he said. "Since that is the case, let us invite Wealth. Let him come and fill our home with wealth!"

His wife disagreed. "My dear, why don't we invite Success?"

Their daughter-in-law was listening from the other corner of the house. She jumped in with her own suggestion: "Would it not be better to invite Love? Our home will then be filled with love!"

"Let us heed our daughter-in-law's advice," said the husband to his wife.

"Go out and invite Love to be our guest."

The woman went out and asked the 3 old men, "Which one of you is Love? Please come in and be our guest."

Love got up and started walking toward the house. The other 2 also got up and followed him. Surprised, the lady asked Wealth and Success: "I only invited Love, Why are you coming in?"

The old men replied together: "If you had invited Wealth or Success, the other two of us would've stayed out, but since you invited Love, wherever He goes, we go with him. Wherever there is Love, there is also Wealth and Success!!!!!!"

MY WISH FOR YOU...

-Where there is pain, I wish you peace and mercy.
-Where there is self-doubting, I wish you a renewed confidence in your ability to work through it.
-Where there is tiredness, or exhaustion, I wish you understanding, patience, and renewed strength.
-Where there is fear, I wish you love, and courage.

wid loadz of luv .....NANNU....

Hey Nannu,

That was really very good and yes I do believe in the power of love too. I would like to share a story with all of you as well. Here it goes:

There were 2 men who were really ill in a hospital. There condition was really critical and so they were bed-ridden. One of then had the window bed, while the other didn't. The person by the window would get up on his bed at stare out of the window for a little while, while the other was even unable to do that. He would ask his friend what he saw outside the window.

Person by the window: the world is really beautiful out there. I see a gorgeous park with people sitting in the daylight and enjoying with their family and friends. The nature is splendor and everything seems so lovely with ducks in the ponds and birds chirping. The magnificence of God's nature just takes my breadth away and it gives me peace of mind.

The other person: Oh wow! That does sound really beautiful. You're so lucky you can see such amazing things and feel it. I wish I could do the same.

Person by the window: Yes everything around is glorified and every moment that passes by seems to be precious. Don't worry you will get a chance too.

Few days pass by and they became close friends. Everyday the person by the window would tell his friend what he saw outside and both of them would be happy. Soon, the person by the window passed away and the other person was left alone, missing his friend's presence. One day, he asked the nurse if he could be shifted by the window and the nurse agreed.

The other person asked the nurse: What do you see outside the window?

The nurse replied: nothing much. There is hardly anything nice to see outside.

At this the person was surprised and asked why she just said that.

The nurse: there is a tall building outside this window that blocks the entire view. All you see is bricks outside.

The other person: but my friend who was here before said something else everyday. He described a beautiful park in several ways and created an image in my mind. Why did he lie to me?

The nurse replied: he did not lie, but he gave you inspiration. You see he was blind and so what he felt within he told you that only and gave you a wonderful outlook on life. He was a great man and she told him that one should learn how to live from him. Even after so many problems he always gave courage and inspiration to his fellow man.

The other person realized how great his friend was and those words always remained in his heart…

I hope you like it...I love stuff that has a meaning to it! Tell me what you all think.

-Love4ever!
