The Whole World Came Together


 A young mother was ready for a few minutes of relaxation after a long and tiring day. However, her young daughter had other plans for her mother's time. "Read me a story. Mommy," the little girl requested. "Give Mommy a few minutes to relax. Then I will be happy to read you a story" pleaded the mother.

 

The little girl was insistent that Mommy read to her now. In a flash of genius, the mother tore off the back page of the magazine she was reading. It contained a full page picture of the world. As she tore it into several pieces, she asked her daughter to put the picture together and then Mommy would read her the story. Surely this would bring her enough moments of relaxation.

 

Minutes later, the little girl announced the completion of her puzzle project. To her astonishment the mother found the world picture correctly assembled. When she asked her daughter how she had managed to do it so quickly, she said that on the reverse of the page was the picture of a little girl. "You, see, Mommy, when I got the little girl together, the whole world came together."

 

Each of us has got the responsibility to put our world together. It starts by putting ourselves together. We can become better parents, friends, spouses, employees and employers. The first step is changing our attitude.

 

People sense how you feel about them. If you want to change their attitudes towards you, change any negative attitudes you have towards them.
