Wow!
Last spring I was walking in a park.
A short distance ahead of me was a mom and her three-year-old daughter.
The little girl was holding on to a string that was attached to a helium balloon.
All of a sudden, a sharp gust of wind took the balloon from the little girl.
I braced myself for some screaming and crying.
But, no! As the little girl turned to watch her balloon go skyward,
she gleefully shouted out, "Wow!"
I didn't realize it at that moment, but that little girl taught me something.
Later that day, I received a phone call from a person with news of an unexpected problem.
I felt like responding with "Oh no, what should we do?"
But remembering that little girl,
I found myself saying, "Wow, that's interesting! How can I help you?"
One thing's for sure -
life's always going to keep us off balance with its unexpected problems.
That's a given.
What's not preordained is our response.
We can choose to be frustrated or fascinated.
No matter what the situation, a fascinated "Wow!" will always beat a frustrated "Oh, no."
So the next time you experience one of life's unexpected gusts,
remember that little girl and make it a "Wow!" experience.
The "Wow!" response always works.
"The tragedy of life doesn't lie in not reaching your goal. The tragedy lies in having no goal to reach."- Benjamin Mays

He who loses a friend, loses more;
He who loses faith, loses all.
There are things u love to hear but you would NEVER hear it from the person from whom you would like to hear it but don't be DEAF to hear it from the person who says it with HER HEART
do you know that one of these is for you? hahas.
