[/The Most Important Part of The Body:
My mother used to ask me: "What is the most important part of the
body?"
Through the years I would take a guess at what I thought was the
correct
answer.
When I was younger, I thought sound was very important to us as humans,
so I
said, "My ears, Mommy." She said, "No Many people are deaf. But you
keep
thinking about it and I will ask you again soon."
Several years passed before she asked me again. Since making my first
attempt, I had contemplated the correct answer. So this time I told
her,
"Mommy, sight is very important to everybody, so it must be our eyes.
She
looked at me and told me, "You are learning fast, but the answer is not
correct because there are many people who are blind."
Stumped again, I continued my quest for knowledge. Over the years,
Mother
asked me a couple more times and always her answer was, "No, but you
are
getting smarter every year, my child."
Then last year, my grandpa died. Everybody was hurt. Everybody was
crying.
Even my father cried. I remember that especially because it was only
the
second time I saw him cry. My Mom looked at me when it was our turn to
say
our final good-bye to Grandpa. She asked me, "Do you know the most
important
body part yet, my dear?" I was shocked when she asked me this now. I
always
thought this was a game between her and me.
She saw the confusion on my face and told me, "This question is very
important. It shows that you have really lived in your life. For every
body
part you gave me in the past, I have told you was wrong and I have
given you
an example why. But today is the day you need to learn this important
lesson."
She looked down at me as only a mother can. I saw her eyes well up with
tears. She said, "My dear, the most important body part is your
shoulder." I
asked, "Is it because it holds up my head?" She replied, "No, it is
because
it can hold the head of a friend or a loved one when they cry.
Everybody
needs a shoulder to cry on sometime in life, my dear. I only hope that
you
have enough love and friends that you will always have a shoulder to
cry on
when you need it."
Then and there I knew the most important body part is not a selfish
one.
It is sympathetic to the pain of others.
People will forget what you said...
People will forget what you did....
But people will NEVER forget how you made them feel...
