PAPER CRANE LOVE
From : Maung Myint Oo
Jul 26, 2006

There was once this guy who is very much in love with his girl.
This romantic guy folded 1,000 pieces of paper cranes as a gift to his
girl.

Although at that time he was just a small fry in his company, and
his future didn't seem too bright, they were very happy together.
Until one day, his girl told him she was going to Paris and will never
come back. She also told him that she could not visualize any future
for both of them, so they went their own separate ways there and
then...

Heartbroken, the guy agreed. But when he regained his confidence,
he worked hard day and night, slogging his body and mind just to make
something out of himself. Finally with all the hard work and the
help of friends, this guy had set up his own company ..

You never fail until you stop trying. One rainy day, while this
guy was driving, he saw an elderly couple sharing an umbrella in the
rain walking to some destination. Even with the umbrella, they were
still drenched. It didn't take him long to realize they were his
girl's parents. With a heart in getting back at them, he drove slowly
beside the couple, wanting them to spot him in his luxury sedan.
He wanted them to know that he wasn't the same any more; he had his
own company, car, a condo, etc. He made it!

What he saw next confused him, the couple was walking towards a
cemetery. So he got out of his car and followed...and he saw his
girl, a photograph of her smiling sweetly as ever at him from her
tombstone, and he saw his paper cranes right beside her...

Her parents saw him. He asked them why this had happened. They
explained that she did not leave for France at all. She was ill
with cancer. She had believed that he would make it someday, but she
did not want to be his obstacle... therefore she had chosen to leave
him.

Just because someone doesn't love you the way you want doesn't mean
that that someone doesn'1t love you with all he or she has. The
girl had wanted her parents to put his paper cranes beside her,
because if the day comes when fate brings him to her again...he can
take some of those back with him...

The guy just wept...The worst way to miss someone is to be sitting
right beside her knowing you can't have her, see her, or be with
her ever again.

Find time to realize that there is one person who means so much to
you, for you might wake up one morning losing that person who you
thought meant nothing to you.


PRAYER
"Lord, give me a lively faith, a firm hope, a fervent charity, and a great love for you. Take from me all lukewarmness in the meditation of your word, and dullness in prayer. Give me fervor and delight in thinking of you and your grace, and fill me with compassion for others, especially those in need, that I may respond with generosity"
