Guest guest Posted December 3, 2009 Report Share Posted December 3, 2009 You Are My Life There was a boy in India who was sent by his parents to a boardingschool. Before being sent away this boy was the brightest student inhis class. He was at the top in every competition. He was a champion. But the boy changed after leaving home and attending the boardingschool. His grades started dropping. He hated being in a group. He waslonely all the time. And there were especially dark times when he felt like committing suicide. All of this because he felt worthless andthat no one loved him.His parents started worrying about the boy. But even they did not knowwhat was wrong with him. So his dad decided to travel to the boarding school and talk with him.They sat on the bank of the lake near the school. The father startedasking him casual questions about his classes, teachers and sports.After some time his dad said, 'Do you know son, why I am here today? " The boy answered back, " to check my grades? " " No, no " his dad replied, " I am here to tell you that you are the mostimportant person for me. I want to see you happy. I don't care about grades. I care about you. I care about your happiness. YOU ARE MYLIFE. " These words caused the boy's eyes to fill with tears. He hugged hisdad. They didn't say anything to each other for a long time. Now the boy had everything he wanted. He knew there was someone onthis earth who cared for him deeply. He meant the world to someone.And today this young man is in college at the top of his class and noone has ever seen him sad! Thanks a lot dad. YOU ARE MY LIFE. " Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kindword, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act ofcaring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around.
