My friend Tony, sent me this article which is so touching that I must share here.
A very poor man lived with his wife. One day, his wife, who had very
long hair, asked him to buy her a comb for her hair. The man felt very
sorry but said no. He explained that he did not even have enough money
to fix the strap of his watch he had just broken. She did not insist on
her request. The man went to work and passed by a watch shop, sold his
old watch at a low price and went to buy a comb for his wife. He came
home in the evening with the comb in his hand ready to give to his wife.
He was surprised when he saw his wife with a very short haircut. She
had sold her hair and was holding a new watch band. Tears flowed
simultaneously from their eyes, not for the futility of their actions,
but for the reciprocity of their love.
I google and found the article also posted here.
My comment: It is by our action/sacrifice that expressed our Love.
A great article, very touching indeed!
ReplyDeleteI agree, love is not just 4 letters, it has to be expressed in the action.
