This is a story told about a soldier who was finally coming home after having fought in vietnam .He called his parents ..i am coming home .i have a friend and i would like to bring him with me.
sure they replied we would love to meet him.
but do you know he was hurt badly in the fight .He stepped on a land mine and lost an arm and a leg.He has nobody to go and i want him to live with us.
i am sorry to hear that my son..but we can help him find somewhere to live.
no mom dad i want him to live with us
dad said my dear son you don't know ..some one with a handicap would be terrible burden on us We have our own lives to live We cant let something like this to interfere with our lives.He will find a way on his own .
At that point the son hung the phone.The parents heard nothing from him any more.After few days they received a phone call from sanfrancisco police .Their son had died after falling from a building ,they were told..
The grief stricken parents flew to san francisco and were taken to the city morgue to identify the body of their son.They recognized him but to their horror the also discovered something they didn't know..their son had only 1 arm and 1 leg..
THE PARENTS IN THIS STORY ARE LIKE MANY OF US.WE FIND IT EASY TO LOVE THOSE WHO ARE GOOD LOOKING TO HAVE US AROUND US BUT WE DON'T LIKE PEOPLE WHO DISTURB US .WE WOULD RATHER STAY AWAY FROM PEOPLE WHO AREN'T AS HEALTHY BEAUTIFUL AS WE ARE..THANKFULLY THERE IS SOME ONE WHO WONT TREAT US THAT WAY .SOME ONE LOVES US WITH AN UNCONDITIONAL LOVE EVEN THOUGH HOW MUCH BAD WE ARE...
SO LET US ALL LEARN TO LOVE ALL..PRACTISE IT TO BECOME A BETTER HUMAN TO LIVE WITH GOD FOR EVER...
