Have you heard the story of Helen Kehler?
She is a woman who was born in a state of blind and deaf. Because the defect was experiencing, he could not read, see, and hear.
In such circumstances it is born Helen Kehler.
No one wants born in such conditions. Helen Kehler If given the choice, he’ll choose to be born under normal circumstances. But who would have thought, with all its shortcomings, she has a zest for life is amazing, and grew into a legendary. With all its limitations, she was able to provide motivation and zest for life to those who have limitations too, such as cripple, blind and deaf.
She hoped, all people with disabilities like himself able to live a life as normal human beings, although it was very difficult to do. There is a fantastic sentence ever uttered Helen Kehler:
“It would be a blessing if each person could be blind and
deaf for a few days during his grown-up live. It would make
them see and appreciate their ability to experience the joy
of sound”.
In essence, according to him is a gift if every person who has an adult, get experience blind and deaf in a few days. Thus, each person will be more appreciative of life, at least at when hear the sound!
Now, you try to imagine for a moment ….
you become a blind and deaf for two or three days only!
Close your eyes and ears during the period. Do not let yourselves be seen or heard anything. During the few days that you can not see the beauty of the world, you can not see the bright sun, blue sky, and even you can not enjoy the music / radio and tv show favorite!
How? Are some days heavy enough? How about minus two or three hours?
I am sure this will remind everyone, that we often forgot how to be grateful for what we have. Perfection that is within us. Often what happens in our lives is a complaint after complaint. Until never appreciate what we already have. And could be, what we have is a luxury that can never be enjoyed by others.
Yes! Luxury for someone else!
Let you think, how people who do not have legs? So walking is a great luxury to him.
Helen Kehler has said, if he is allowed to see one day, then she sure would be able to do many things, including making an interesting article.
From here we can take a lesson, if we are able to appreciate what we have, the things that already exists within us, of course, we will be able to see life better. We will rarely complain and rarely felt hard! On the contrary, we will be able to think positively and become a better human being.
