"Tell him I don’t ever want to see him again

Tell him he meant nothing to me

Tell him I never loved him

Tell him I won’t miss him at all

But please don’t tell him

I said all this with tears in my eyes..."

A beautiful love story





He met her at a party. She was so outstanding, many guys chasing after her, while he was so normal, nobody paid attention to him. At the end of the party, he invited her to have coffee with him, she was surprised but due to being polite, she promised. They sat in a nice coffee shop, he was too nervous to say anything, she felt uncomfortable, and she thought to herself, "Please, let me go home..."

Suddenly he asked the waiter, "Would you please give me some salt?
I'd like to put it in my coffee." Everybody stared at him, so strange! His face turned red but still, he put the salt in his coffee and drank it. She asked him curiously, "Why you have this hobby?" He replied, "When I was a little boy, I lived near the sea, I liked playing in the sea, I could feel the taste of the sea, just like the taste of the salty coffee. Now every time I have the salty
coffee, I always think of my childhood, think of my hometown, I miss my hometown so much, I miss my parents who are still living there."
While saying that tears filled his eyes. She was deeply touched.

That's his true feeling, from the bottom of his heart. A man who can tell out his homesickness, he must be a man who loves home, cares about home, has responsibility of home... Then she also started to speak, spoke about her faraway hometown, her childhood, her family.

That was a really nice talk, also a beautiful beginning of their story. They continued to date. She found that actually he was a man who meets all her demands; he had tolerance, was kind hearted, warm, careful.

He was such a good person but she almost missed him! Thanks to his salty coffee! Then the story was just like every beautiful love story, the princess married to the prince, and then they were living the happy life... And, every time she made coffee for him, she put some salt in the coffee, as she knew that's the way he liked it.

After 40 years, he passed away, left her a letter which said, "My dearest, please forgive me, forgive my whole life's lie. This was the only lie I said to you---the salty coffee. Remember the first time we dated? I was so nervous at that time, actually I wanted some sugar, but I said salt. It was hard for me to change so I just went ahead. I never thought that could be the start of our communication!
I tried to tell you the truth many times in my life, but I was too afraid to do that, as I have promised not to lie to you for anything... Now I'm dying, I afraid of nothing so I tell you the
truth, I don't like the salty coffee, what a strange bad taste...
But I have had the salty coffee for my whole life! Since I knew you, I never feel sorry for anything I do for you. Having you with me is my biggest happiness for my whole life. If I can live for the second time, still want to know you and have you for my whole life,
even though I have to drink the salty coffee again." Her tears made the letter totally wet. Someday, someone asked her, "What's the taste of salty coffee?" She replied, "It' s sweet."

Pass this to everyone because love is not to forget but to forgive, not to see but understand, not to hear but to listen, not to let go.

Spiritual Humor : Installing Love

Customer Service: Can you install Love?

Customer: I can do that. I am not very technical, but I think I am
ready to install now. What do I do first?

Service: The first step is to open your Heart. Have you located your
Heart?

Customer: Yes, I have, but there are several programs running right
now. Is it okay to install while they are running?

Service: What programs are running?

Customer: Let me see. I have Pasthurt.exe, Lowesteem.exe, Grudge.exe
and Resentment.com running right now.

Service: No problem. Love will automatically erase Pasthurt.exe from
your current operating system. It may remain in your permanent
memory, but it will no longer disrupt other programs. Love will
eventually overwrite Lowesteem.exe with a module of its own, called
Highesteem.exe. However, you have to completely turn off Grudge.exe
and Resentment.com. Those programs prevent Love from being properly
installed. Can you turn those off?

Customer: I don't know how to turn them off. Can you tell me how?

Service: My pleasure. Go to your Start menu and invoke
Forgiveness.exe. Do this as many times as necessary until Grudge.exe
and Resentment.com have been completely erased.

Customer: Okay, I am done. Love has started installing itself
automatically. Is that normal?

Service: Yes it is. You should receive a message that says it will
reinstall for the life of your Heart. Do you see that message?

Customer: Yes I do. Is it completely installed?

Service: Yes, but remember that you have only the base program. You
need to begin connecting to other Hearts to get the upgrades.


Customer: Oops' I have an error message already. What should I do?

Service: What does the message say?

Customer: It says "Error 412" Program not run on internal components.
What does that mean?

Service: Don't worry, that's a common problem. It means that the Love
program is set up to run on external Hearts but has not yet been
running on your Heart. It is one of those complicated programming
things, but in non-technical terms it means that you have to "love"
your own machine before it can "love" others.

Customer: So what should I do?

Service: Can you find the directory called "Self-acceptance"?

Customer: Yes, I have it.

Service: Excellent, you are getting good at this.

Customer: Thank you.
Service: You are welcome. Click on the following files and then copy
them to the "Myheart" directory: Forgiveself.doc, Selfesteem.txt,
Realizeworth.txt and Goodness.doc. The system will overwrite
conflicting files and begin patching any faulty programming. Also,
you need to delete 'Selfcriticize.exe" from all directories, and then
empty your recycle bin afterwards to make sure it is completely gone
and never comes back.

Customer: Got it! Wow! My Heart is filling up with really neat files.
Smile.mpg is playing on my monitor right now, and it shows that
Warmth.com, Peace.exe and Contentment.com are copying themselves all
over my Heart!

Service: Then Love is installed and running. You should be able to
handle it from here. One more thing before I go.

Customer: Yes?

Service: Love is freeware. Be sure to give it and its various modules
to everybody you are meeting. They will in turn share it with other
people, and they will return some really neat modules back to you.

Customer: I will. Thank you for your help.

Service: You are very welcome.

THE SECRET



One day, one friend asked another,
"How is it that you are always so happy?
You have so much energy,
and you never seem to get down."

With her eyes smiling, she said,
"I know the Secret!"
"What secret is that?"
To which she replied,
"I'll tell you all about it,
but you have to promise to
share the Secret with others."

"The Secret is this:
I have learned there is little I can do
in my life that will make me truly happy.
I must depend on God to make
me happy and to meet my needs.
When a need arises in my life,
I have to trust God to supply
according to HIS riches.
I have learned most of the time
I don't need half of what I think I do.
He has never let me down.
Since I learned that 'Secret', I am happy."

The questioner's first thought was,
"That's too simple!"
But upon reflecting over her own life
she recalled how she thought a bigger house
would make her happy, but it didn't!
She thought a better paying job
would make her happy, but it hadn't.
When did she realize her greatest happiness?
Sitting on the floor with her grandchildren,
playing games, eating pizza or reading a story,
a simple gift from God.

Now you know it too!
We can't depend on people to make us happy.
Only GOD in His infinite wisdom can do that.
Trust HIM!
And now I pass the Secret on to you!
So once you get it, what will you do?

YOU have to tell someone the Secret, too!
That GOD in His wisdom will take care of YOU!
But it's not really a secret...
We just have to believe it and do it...
Really trust God!

In everything you do, put GOD first, and he will direct
you and crown your effort with success .
