And last but not least, my personal favorite:
"I LOVE YOU!"
A Child's Unconditional Love & Kisses
This story goes that several years ago, a Father punished his 3-year-old son for wasting a roll of gold wrapping paper. Money was tight and he became infuriated when the child tried to decorate a box to put under the Christmas tree.
Nevertheless, The little boy brought the gift to his father the next morning and said, "This is for you, Daddy." He was embarrassed by his earlier overreaction, but his anger flared again when he found the box was empty.
He yelled at him, "Don't you know that when you give someone a present, there's supposed to be something inside it"? The little boy looked up at him with tears in him eyes and said, "Oh, Daddy, it is not empty. I blew kisses into the box. All for you, Daddy." The father was crushed.
He put his arms around his little boy, and he begged for him forgiveness. It is told that the man kept that gold box by his bed for years and whenever he was discouraged, he would take out an imaginary kiss and remember the love of the child who had put it there
The moral of this story is that in a very real sense, each of us as humans have been given a gold container filled with unconditional love and kisses from our children, friends, family or God. There is no more precious possession anyone could hold than unconditional love and kisses .
