An Eye Witness Account from New York City, on a cold day in December:
A little boy about 10 years old was standing before a shoe store on the roadway, barefooted, peering through the window, and shivering with cold.
A lady approached the boy and said, “My little fellow, why are you looking so earnestly in that window?”
“I was asking God to give me a pair of shoes,” was the boy’s reply.
The lady took him by the hand and went into the store and asked the clerk to get half a dozen pairs of socks for the boy. She then asked if he could give her a basin of water and a towel. He quickly brought them to her.
She took the little fellow to the back part of the store and, removing her gloves, knelt down, washed his little feet, and dried them with a towel. By this time the clerk had returned with the socks. Placing a pair upon the boy’s feet, she purchased him a pair of shoes. She tied up the remaining pairs of socks and gave them to him. She patted him on the head and said, “No doubt, my little fellow, you feel more comfortable now?”
As she turned to go, the astonished lad caught her by the hand, and looking up in her face, with tears in his eyes, answered the question with these words: “Are you God’s Wife?”
The “Instant Wisdom” of the following insights have taken over twelve years to research.
Want a happier life? Try to be open, flexible, and curious.
If you know someone who’s not having a happy life, some of the following insights may help. Unhappiness is a “red-flag” for anyone to become more aware. If we don’t become more aware, our life will simply follow the pattern of our past habits over and over again. But, if we pay attention, we can make conscious choices in how we respond to the what happens in our daily life. KEEP AN OPEN MIND–please read the insights slowly.
“Joy,” “delight,” “wonder,” and “astonishment” are a part of life. If you’re not happy, don’t accept life as it is! Be assertive and start exploring. Investigate, be curious, and ask questions and your daily life will get better. Don’t limit yourself by your own idea on how life is–find out what you don’t know. Life is a do-it-yourself project.
EVERYONE HAS WORTH AND VALUE. Happy people have self-acceptance and like themselves. Everyone is okay—you are okay. Self-acceptance means you’re a friend to yourself. We all need to love ourselves simply because we exist. YOU ARE NICER THAN YOU KNOW. You’re an important, unique person with fingerprints of your own.
You’re more good-looking, intelligent, able, and creative than you think.
If you’re not happy, look in the mirror and smile. Do it again. Give yourself a wink!
Everyone has worth and value, including you! If your daily relationships (work, family, friends) make you feel as though you don’t have any rights, read the book, “Your Perfect Right,” by Alberti and Emmons.
