you are special
A well-known speaker started on his seminar by holding up a $20 bill in the room of 200.
He asked,who would like this $20 bill. Hands started going up. He said, I'm going to give this $20 to one of you, but first, let me do this. He proceeded to crumple the $20 note up.
He then asked, who still wants it? Still the hands were up in the air. Well, he replied, what if I do this? He dropped it on the ground, and started to ground into the floor with his shoe. He picked it up, now, crumpled and dirty.
Now, who still wants it? Still the hands went into the air.
My friends, you have all learned a very valuable lesson, no matter what I did to the money, you still want it, because it did not decrease in value. It was still worth $20.
Many times in our lives, we are dropped, crumpled, and ground into the dirt by the decisions we make, and circumstances that come away. We feel as though we are worthless. But no matter what happened, or what will happen, you will never lose your value. Dirty or clean, crumpled or finally creased, you are still priceless to those who love you. The worst of your lives comes not in what we do, or who we know, but by who we are. You are special. Don't ever forget it.
