~Powerful Life Lesson!

THIS ONE IS PRICELESS...GREAT LIFE LESSON FOR US ALL!

Some people understand life better, And they call some of these people
"retarded"...

At the Seattle Special Olympics, nine contestants, all physically or
mentally disabled, assembled at the starting line for the 100-yard dash.

At the gun, they all started out, not exactly in a dash, but with a
relish to run the race to the finish and win.

All, that is, except one little boy who stumbled on the asphalt,
tumbled over a couple of times, and began to cry. The other eight heard the
boy cry.

They slowed down and looked back. Then they all turned around and went
back......every one of them.

One girl with Down's Syndrome bent down and kissed him and said, "This
will make it better." Then all nine linked arms and walked together to the
finish line.

Everyone in the stadium stood, the cheering went on for several
minutes.

People who were there are still telling the story...

Why? Because deep down we know this one thing:

What matters in this life is more than winning for ourselves. What matters
in this life is helping others win, even if it means slowing down and
changing our course. If you pass this on, we may be able to change our
hearts as well as someone else's.

Personal note from me: Wow, moving aye!? This is how our lives and business's
should look like!
