This will change the way you think
Tow men both seriously ill .were lying in a hospital room . One of them was able to sit upright in bed for half a day . His bed was next to the only window in the room .
the other man spend every day lying on his back . Every day when the first man sat by the window after lunch ,he described every thing he saw for his neighbor .
The second man looked forward to this . The window looked out an a park with a beautiful lake .
Swans swam in the lake ,children playing toy boats on the water . There was a beautiful lands cape stretching in to the distance .
The man by the window described every thing in vivid detail , and the second man lay in bed and imagined the scene .
Days passed ,one morning a nurse entered the room and saw that the man by the window had died peacefully in his sleep .
The second man asked to have his bed moved next to the window . The nurse moved the beds and left the room alone .
He lifted himself on to his elbows with difficulty , trying to look out of the window .
But all he saw was a blank wall . He called the nurse and asked .
How could my neighbor see all the things he told me about ??
The nurse answered that his neighbor had been blind , and could not even see that wall .
Perhaps he simply wanted to cheer the other man up .
There is no greater happiness than making others happy , regardless of your own problems .
Because when you share happiness , it doubles ...............
