A blind boy sat on the steps of a building with a hat by his feet. He
> held up a sign which said: “I am blind, please help.” There were only a
> few coins in the hat.
>
> A man was walking by. He took a few coins from his pocket and dropped
> them into the hat. He then took the sign, turned it around, and wrote
> some words. He put the sign back so that everyone who walked by would
> see the new words.
>
> Soon the hat began to fill up. A lot more people were giving money to
> the blind boy. That afternoon the man who had changed the sign came to
> see how things were. The boy recognized his footsteps and asked, “Were
> you the one who changed my sign this morning? What did you write?”
>
> The man said, “I only wrote the truth. I said what you said but in a
> different way.”
> I wrote: “Today is a beautiful day but I cannot see it.”
>
> Both signs told people that the boy was blind. But the first sign simply
> said the boy was blind. The second sign told people that they were so
> lucky that they were not blind. Should we be surprised that the second
> sign was more effective?
>
> Moral of the Story: Be thankful for what you have. Be creative. Be

> When life gives you a 100 reasons to cry, show life that you have 1000
> reasons to smile. Face your past without regret. Handle your present with
> confidence. Prepare for the future without fear. Keep the faith and drop
> the fear.
