A well-known speaker started off his seminar by holding up a 50 Rial note.
In the room of 200, he asked, "Who would like this 50 Rial note?"
Hands started going up. He said, "I am going to give this note to one
of you but first let me do this." He proceeded to crumple the 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?" And he dropped it on the ground and started to grind it into
the floor with his shoe. He picked it up, now all 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 wanted it because it did
not decrease in value. It was still worth 50/-. Rials
Many times in our lives, we are dropped, crumpled, and ground into the
dirt by the decisions we make and the circumstances that come our way.
We feel as though we are worthless. But no matter what has happened or
what will happen, you will never lose your value.
You are special. Don't ever forget it! Never let yesterday's
disappointments overshadow tomorrow's dreams.
