Giving Up Wine

I got an email messages from a friend. That keeps me realized and choose to see goodness in everything around me and soon appreciate my life more. I choose to see the good side of every event, thing or person in my life and I’ll never run out of blessings to count. I want to share it with you the message.

I was walking down the street when I was accosted by a particularly dirty and shabby-looking homeless woman who asked me for a couple of dollar for dinner. I took out my wallet, got out ten dollars and asked, ‘If I give you this money, will you buy wine with it instead of dinner?’ ‘No I had to stop drinking years ago’, the homeless woman told me. ‘Will you use it to go shopping instead of buying food?’ I asked. ‘No I don’t waste time for shopping,’ the homeless woman said. I need to spend all my time to stay alive.’ ‘Will you spend this on a beauty salon instead of food?’ I asked. ‘Are you NUTS!’ replied the homeless woman. I haven’t had my hair done in 20 years!’ ‘Well, I said, I’m not going to give you the money. Instead, I’m going to take you out for dinner with my husband and me tonight.’ The homeless woman was shocked. ‘Won’t your husband be furious with you for doing that? I know I’m dirty, and probably smell pretty disgusting.’ I said that’s okay. It’s important for him to see what woman looks like after she has given up shopping, hair appointments, and wine.

I just know your laughing! It’s good for us to laugh and make a joke on a realistic moment of our life. Let love embrace our life as God loves us…
