A Story to live by

There was a blind girl who hated herself because she was blind. She 
hated everyone, except her loving boyfriend. He was always 
there for her. She told her boyfriend, 'If I could only see 
the world, I will marry you.'

 

One day, 
someone donated a pair of eyes to her. When the bandages 
came off, she was able to see everything, including her 
boyfriend.


He asked 
her,'Now that you can see the world, will you marry me?' The 
girl looked at her boyfriend and saw that he was blind. The 
sight of his closed eyelids shocked her. She hadn't expected 
that. The thought of looking at them the rest of her life 
led her to refuse to marry him.

Her 
boyfriend left in tears and days later wrote a note to her 
saying: 'Take good care of your eyes, my dear, for before 
they were yours, they were mine.'
