[Desi Masala] JUST A NICE THOUGHT!

* Hi I am Irfan....

------------------------------
*It was a busy morning, about 8:30, when an elderly gentleman in his 80's
arrived to have stitches removed from his thumb. He said he was in a hurry
as he had an appointment at 9:00 am..*
* I took his vital signs and had him take a seat, knowing it would be
over an hour before someone would to able to see him. I saw him looking at
his watch and decided, since I was not busy with another patient, I would
evaluate his wound. On exam, it was well healed, so I talked to one of the
doctors, got the needed supplies to remove his sutures and redress his
wound.

While taking care of his wound, I asked him if he had another
doctor's** **appointment
this morning, as he was in such a hurry. ** *
* The gentleman told me no, that he needed to go to the nursing home to eat
breakfast with his wife. I inquired as to her health.

He told me that** **she had been there for a while and that she was a victim
of Alzheimer's Disease. ** *
* As we talked, I asked if she would be upset if he was a bit late.

He replied that she no longer knew who he was, that she had not recognized
him in five years now.** ** ** *
* I was surprised, and asked him, 'And you still go every morning, even
though she doesn't know who you are?'

He smiled as he patted my hand and said,** ** *
* 'She doesn't know me, but I still know who she is.'** ** ** *
*I had to hold back tears as he left, I had goose bumps on my arm, and
thought,

'That is the kind of love I want in my life.'

True love is neither physical, nor romantic. ** ** *
* True love is an acceptance of all that is, has been, will be, and will
not be.** * * *
*With all the jokes and fun that are in e-mails, sometimes there is one
that comes along that has an important message. This one I thought I could
share with you.** ** ** *
*The happiest people don't necessarily have the best of everything; they
just make the best of everything they have** **.*
*I hope you share this with someone you care about. I just did. ** *
* **'Life isn' t about how to survive the storm,** ** *
*but how to dance in the rain.'*

If you can't be a pencil to write anyone's happiness, try at least to be a
nice rubber to erase everyone's sorrows…………

When I was born I was given a choice of either being a brilliant lover or
having an amazing memory, unfortunately I forgot which one I chose.

I used to scintillate - now I sin 'til just half past three

We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give.
