Always remember those around you

I have in my hands two boxes, which God gave me to hold.

He said " Put all your sorrows in the black box, and all your joys in the gold.' I heeded His words, and in the two boxes both my joys and sorrows I stored. But thought the gold became heavier each day, the black was as light as before.

 With curiosity, I opened the black, I wanted to find out why; And saw in the base of the box, a hole which my sorrows had fallen out. I showed the hole to God, and mused, "I wonder where my sorrows could be." He smiled a gentle smile and said "My child, they're all here with me. I asked God, why He gave me the boxes, why the gold, and the black with the hole? My child, the gold is for you to count your blessings, the black is for you to let go."

Thank You Father GOD for Blessing me with 2 very caring parents both Resting In Peace, four wonderful children, a beautiful DIL, 2 adorable grandchildren, 4 loving sisters, 2 loving brothers, a host of nieces and nephews, cousins and friends.

We should consider all of our family members and friends as blessings. I know I truly do.
