>>A well-known speaker started off his seminar
>>
>>by holding up a $20.00 bill. In the room of 200, he asked, "Who would
>>like this $20 bill?"
>>
>>Hands started going up.
>>
>>He said, "I am going to give this $20 to one of you but first, let me
>>do this. He proceeded to crumple up the $20 dollar bill.
>>
>>He then asked, "Who still wants it?"
>>
>>Still the hands were up in the air.
>>
>>Well, he replied, "What if I do this?" And he dropped it on the ground
>>and started to grind it into the floor with his shoe. He picked it
>>up, now crumpled and dirty.
>>
>>"Now, who still wants it?"
>>
>>Still the hands went into the air.
>>
>>My friends, we have all learned a very valuable lesson.
>>No matter what I did to the money, you still wanted it because it did
>>not decrease in value. It was still worth $20.
>>
>>Many times in our lives, we are dropped, crumpled, and ground into the
>>dirt by the decisions we make and the circumstances that come our way.
>>
>>We feel as though we are worthless. But no matter what has happened
>>or what will happen, you will never lose your value.
>>
>>Dirty or clean, crumpled or finely creased, you are still priceless to
>>those who DO LOVE you.
>>
>>The worth of our lives comes not in what we do or who we know, but by
>>WHO WE ARE.
>>
>>You are special- Don't EVER forget it."
>>
>>If you do not pass this on, you may never know the lives it touches,
>>the hurting hearts it speaks to, or the hope that it can bring.
>>
>>Count your blessings, not your problems.
>>
>>And remember: amateurs built the ark
>>professionals built the Titanic.
>>
>>If God brings you to it - He will bring you through it
