Title: Read this with dry eyes, if you can.
Post by: karloss on July 24, 2005, 05:42:52

For those of you with an ounce of something. Is compasion the right word? Nearly made me boo.
 
 
 The story goes that some time ago a man punished his
 5-year-old daughter for wasting a roll of expensive gold
 wrapping paper. Money was tight and he became even more upset when
 the child pasted the gold paper so as to decorate a box to put under the
 Christmas tree.
 
 Nevertheless, the little girl brought the gift box
 to her father the next morning and said, "This is for you, Daddy." The
 father was embarrassed by his earlier over reaction, but his
 anger flared again when he found the box was empty. He spoke to her in
 a harsh manner,"Don't you know, young lady, when you give someone a
 present there's supposed to be something inside the package?"
 
 The little girl looked up at him with tears in her
 eyes and said,"Oh, Daddy, it's not empty. I blew kisses into it
 until it was full."
 
 The father was crushed. He fell on his knees and put his arms
 around this little girl, and he begged her to forgive him
 for his unnecessary anger.
 
 An accident took the life of the child only a short
 time later and it is told that the father kept that gold box by his
 bed for all the years of his life. And whenever he was discouraged or
 faced difficult problems he would open the box and take out an
 imaginary kiss and remember the love of the child who had put it there.
 
 
 In a very real sense, each of us as human beings have been given a
 golden box filled with unconditional love and kisses from our children,
 family, friends and God. There is no more precious possession anyone
 could hold.

how can you feel sorry for the man since he's been so crap to his own kid?

everytime ours brings something to us we thank him for it, as hes put effort and thought into bringing it.

you can just imagine it now, bringing something you are proud of to your parent only for it to be thrown in your face..

not a nice thing to think of is it.

I'll take it as a tip for the future. Currently I have no experience with children but when I have some things like this will help me to appreciate them all the more.
