There is a story about a soldier who finally wants to go home after fighting in Vietnam. He called his parents from San Francisco. "Mom and Dad, I'm going home, but I want to ask you a favor. I want to take a friend home. "
This is the story of a soldier who came back from the Vietnam War. He called his parents from San Francisco and told them, "Mom and Dad, I'm back, but I have a reluctant request. I want to take a friend home. 」
"Of course," they replied, "we'd love to meet him." "There are some things you should know," the son continued. "He was seriously injured in the battle. He stepped on a mine and lost an arm and a leg. He has nowhere to go. I want him to live with us. "
"Of course!" They replied, "We are glad to see him." But the son continued ...
"But there is one thing I want to tell you first. He was badly injured in Vietnam and lost an arm and a foot. He is desperate now, and I want to invite him back to live with us. 」
"I'm sorry to hear that, son. Maybe we can help him find a place to live. " "No, Mom and Dad, I want him to live with us."
"Sorry, son, but maybe we can help him find a place to live." "No, mom and dad, I want him to live with us! 」
"Son," said the father, "you don't know what you are asking. People with such disabilities are a terrible burden to us. We have our own lives to live, and we can't let such things interfere with our lives. I think you should go home and forget about this person. He will find a way to live independently. "
The father went on to say, "Son, you don't know what you are talking about. Disabled people like him will bring a great burden to our lives. We have our own lives to live, and we can't let him ruin them like this. I suggest you go home first and forget about him. He will find his own sky. 」
Just then, my son hung up. His parents never heard from him again.

The parents in this story are like many of us. We find it easy to like those who are good-looking or surrounded by many interesting people, but we don't like those who bring us inconvenience or make us feel uncomfortable. We would rather stay away from people who are not as healthy, beautiful or smart as us.
The parents in the story are like most of us. It's easy to like people who look good or talk funny, but it's too difficult to like people who bring us inconvenience and unhappiness. We are always more willing to keep our distance from those who are not as healthy, beautiful and intelligent as us.
Thank god, someone won't treat us like that. Someone loves us unconditionally and welcomes us to be family forever, no matter how bad we are. Tonight, before you go to bed, say a little prayer. God will give you strength to accept others as they are and help us understand those who are different from us more! ! !
Thankfully, some people are not so cruel to us. They will love us without regrets, and they will always accept us no matter how bad we are. Before you go to bed tonight, pray to God for strength to accept others, no matter who they are. Ask him to help us meet people who are different from us.
Tell your friends how much you care about them. ....
Tell your friends how much you care about them now.
