This is a true story that happened in Japan.
In order to renovate the house, someone in Japan tear open the wall.
Japanese houses normally have a hollow space between the wooden walls.When
tearing down the walls, he found that there is a lizard stuck there
because
a nail from outside got stuck into one of its feet. He sees this, feels
pity
and at the same time curious, as when he check the nail, it was nailed 10
years ago when the house was first built.
What happened?
The lizard has survived in such position for 10 years! In a dark wall
partition for 10 years without moving, it is not an easy task. Then he
remembered, how this lizard survived for 10 years without moving a single
step - the feet was nailed!
So he stop the work and observe the lizard, what is it eating?
Later,don't know from where appears another lizard, with food in its
mouth... AHHH! He is stunted. What kind of love is this? For the lizard
that
was stuck by a nail, another lizard has been feeding it for the past 10
years ...
I am touched when I heard this story. And stop wondering the relationship
between them: family, friends, lovers, brothers, sisters......
As the technology advances, our access to information became faster and
faster. But the distance between the human beings, is it getting closer as
well?
NEVER ABANDON YOU LOVED ONES.
Share this story with everyone that touched your life

To all the pretty women I know!
a little boy asked his mother "why are you crying?"
"because i"m a woman," she told him.
"i don"t understand," he said.
his mum just hugged him and said, "and you never will"
later the little boy asked his father, "why does mother seem to cry for no reason?"
"all women cry for no reason," was all his dad could say.
the little boy grew up and became a man, still wondering why women cry.
finally he put in a call to god; and when god got on the phone, he asked, "god, why do women cry so easily?"
god said: "when i made the woman she had to be special. i made her shoulders strong enough to carry the weight of the world; yet, gentle enough to give comfort"
"i gave her an inner strength to endure childbirth and the rejection that many times comes from her children"
"i gave her a hardness that allows her to keep going when everyone else gives up, and take care of her family through sickness and fatigue without complaining "
"i gave her the sensitivity to love her children under any and all circumstances, even when her child has hurt her very badly"
"i gave her strength to carry her husband through his faults and fashioned her from his rib to protect his heart"
"i gave her wisdom to know that a good husband never hurts his wife, but sometimes tests her strengths and her resolve to stand beside him unfalteringly"
"and finally, i gave her a tear to shed. this is hers exclusively to usewhenever it is needed."
"you see: the beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair."
"the beauty of a woman must be seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway
to her heart * the place where love resides."
