The treasure that bonds
I just came back from an exhaustive but really enjoyable 5-day camp! I am too tired to blog about it nor post pictures, but I saw something in my email that refreshed several touching memories that I already had previously...
A little girl and her father were crossing a bridge.
The father was kind of scared so he asked his little daughter,
"Sweetheart, please hold my hand so that you don 't fall into the river."
The little girl said, "No, Dad. You hold my hand."
"What's the difference?" Asked the puzzled father.
"There's a big difference," replied the little girl.
"If I hold your hand and something happens to me,
chances are that I may let your hand go.
But if you hold my hand, I know for sure that no matter
what happens, you will never let my hand go."
In any relationship, the essence of trust
is not in its bind, but in its bond.
So Treasure the bonds....................
