Used Vs. Loved

I had to share an email sent to me by a friend today, because after reading, I could relate to how many are so caught up in this material world, til the love of our loved ones are forgotten. I hope this will help those understand it's time to take hold of love and let it teach as well as protect.




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...... Things are to be

used and people are to be loved, but the problem in today's world is that,

People are used and things are loved.
***********
So during this year, let's be careful to

keep this thought in mind: Things are to be used, but People are to be loved.

Be yourself.... But remember actions and words said in anger can never be taken

back!

This is the only day we HAVE.

Have a nice day and

Snatch Joy!
