You Are Special and Best of All

Remember:

Humans look on the
outward appearance, but God looks on the heart."

Think about this

And read this wonderfull tale...

• The Wemmicks were small wooden people. Each of the wooden people was carved by a woodworker named Eli. His workshop sat on a hill overlooking their village. Every Wemmick was different. Some had big noses, others had large eyes. Some were tall and ‘others were short. Some wore hats, others wore coats. But all were made by the same carver and all lived in the village. And all day, every day, the Wemmicks did the same thing: They gave each other stickers. Each Wemmick had a box of golden star stickers and a box of gray dot stickers. Up and down the streets all over the city, people could be seen sticking stars or dots on one another.

The pretty ones, those with smooth wood and fine paint, always got stars. But if the wood was rough or the paint chipped, the Wemmicks gave dots. The talented ones got stars, too. Some could lift big sticks high above their heads or jump over tall boxes. Still others knew big words or could sing very pretty songs. Everyone gave them stars.

Some Wemmicks had stars all over them! Every time they got a star it made them feel so good that they did something else and got another star. Others, though, could do little. They got dots.

Punchinello was one of these. He tried to jump high like the others, but he always fell. And when he fell, the others would gather around and give him dots.

Sometimes when he fell, it would scar his wood, so the people would give him more dots. He would try to explain why he fell and say something silly, and the Wemmicks would give him more dots. After a while he had so many dots that he didn't want to go outside. He was afraid he would do something dumb such as forget his hat or step in the water, and then people would give him another dot. In fact, he had so many gray dots that some people would come up and give him one without reason. "He deserves lots of dots," the wooden people would agree with one another. "He's not a good wooden person."

After a while Punchinello believed them. "I'm not a good Wemmick," he would say. The few times he went outside, he hung around other Wemmicks who had a lot of dots. He felt better around them.

One day he met a Wemmick who was unlike any he'd ever met. She had no dots or stars. She was just wooden. Her name was Lucia. It wasn't that people didn't try to give her stickers; it's just that the stickers didn't stick. Some admired Lucia for having no dots, so they would run up and give her a star. But it would fall off. Some would look down on her for having no stars, so they would give her a dot. But it wouldn't stay either. 'That's the way I want to be,'thought Punchinello. 'I don't want anyone's marks.' So he asked the stickerless Wemmick how she did it. "It's easy," Lucia replied. "every day I go see Eli."

"Eli?" "Yes, Eli. The woodcarver. I sit in the workshop with him." "Why?" "Why don't you find out for yourself? Go up the hill. He's there."

And with that the Wemmick with no marks turned and skipped away. "But he won't want to see me!" Punchinello cried out. Lucia didn't hear. So Punchinello went home. He sat near a window and watched the wooden people as they scurried around giving each other stars and dots. "It's not right," he muttered to himself. And he resolved to go see Eli. He walked up the narrow path to the top of the hill and stepped into the big shop. His wooden eyes widened at the size of everything. The stool was as tall as he was. He had to stretch on his tiptoes to see the top of the workbench. A hammer was as long as his arm. Punchinello swallowed hard. "I'm not staying here!" and he turned to leave. Then he heard his name.

"Punchinello?" The voice was deep and strong. Punchinello stopped. "Punchinello! How good to see you. Come and let me have a look at you." Punchinello turned slowly and looked at the large bearded craftsman. "You know my name?" the little Wemmick asked.

"Of course I do. I made you." Eli stooped down and picked him up and set him on the bench. "Hmm," the maker spoke thoughtfully as he inspected the gray circles. "Looks like you've been given some bad marks." "I didn't mean to, Eli. I really tried hard." "Oh, you don't have to defend yourself to me, child. I don't care what the other Wemmicks think." "You don't?"

No, and you shouldn't either. Who are they to give stars or dots?
They're Wemmicks just like you. What they think doesn't matter, Punchinello. All that matters is what I think. And I think you are pretty special."
Punchinello laughed. "Me, special? Why? I can't walk fast. I can't jump. My paint is peeling. Why do I matter to you?"

Eli looked at Punchinello, put his hands on those small wooden shoulders, and spoke very slowly. "Because you're mine. That's why you matter to me."
Punchinello had never had anyone look at him like this--much less his maker. He didn't know what to say.
"Every day I've been hoping you'd come," Eli explained.
"I came because I met someone who had no marks."
"I know. She told me about you."
"Why don't the stickers stay on her?"
"Because she has decided that what I think is more important than what they think. The stickers only stick if you let them."

"What?"
"The stickers only stick if they matter to you. The more you trust my love, the less you care about the stickers."
"I'm not sure I understand."
"You will, but it will take time. You've got a lot of marks. For now, just come to see me every day and let me remind you how much I care." Eli lifted Punchinello off the bench and set him on the ground. "Remember," Eli said as the Wemmick walked out the door. "You are special because I made you. And I don't make mistakes."

Punchinello didn't stop, but in his heart he thought, "I think he really means it."
And when he did, a dot fell to the ground.

May all your dots fall silently to the ground, for if given by man, they matter only to other men, if given by the Gods, no one questions, the scars that make up our lives. (when given the choice, pass out stars, drop the dots in trash.)

Thanks Beutler , You are always in my heart my dearest friend...

Hablando de secretos...

Que revuelo ha causado el libro de la autora australiana Rhonda Byrne "El Secreto",segun ella pone a nuestra disposicion la manera de poder alcanzar todo lo que mas quieres,ya sea ,amor ,salud y riqueza.

Segun la autora existe un secreto que pocas personas han podido poseer como por ejemplo: Platon,Newton,Carnegie etc. Este secreto contiene la clave para alcanzar el exito en todas las areas de tu vida,espiritual,riqueza ,familia,amor etc,etc y agreguen todos los etc que se les venga a la mente. en fin gracias a mi querida amiga de Concepcion Vivian cabalin cai en la cuenta de averiguar sobre este famoso libro y su teoria de la ley de atraccion. Esa teoria famosa que nos dice que las pesonas atraemos todas las cosas buenas o malas que vivimos, en realidad la escritora da algo tan obvio,y nos lo da como un gran descubimiento.Ella nos dice que somos una fuente de energia enorme,casi antenas andantes ,depende en la frecuencia que nos sintonicemos sera el tipo de cosa que recibiremos por ejemplo al sintonizar tu pensamiento con espiritualidad ,obtendras espiritualidad,en fin piensa lo que mas desees y all done,pero tienes que focalizar toda tu energia y ya esta! ufff!!!! como si fuera asi de simple. segun ella debes ignorar las negaciones,o sea olvidate de pensar "No lo puedo lograr,o bien nunca lo podre obtener.

Si pudieramos alejar todo lo negativo que nos rodea,y mantener ese pensamiento positivo seria genial.pero desafortunadamente no tenemos un campo de proteccion contra las malas vibras y eso nos desgasta.Somos seres de energia,eso es verdad,tenemos la capacidad de cambiar nuestra vida con un pensamiento positivo,con trabajo,con fe y con la ayuda de los que te quieren verdaderamente.La transformacion de los pensamientos en algo tangible se puede lograr,pero ten en cuenta lo que he mencionado.

En todo caso este libro entretiene,mas si eres asiduo a la metafisica,si estas bajo de energia y necesitas que algo te reafirme que puedes logra cambiar tu vida y mejorar algunas cosas que te estan provocando dolor de cabeza leelo! te hara sentir como que tienes a la lampara de aladino al frente tuyo y que nunca la has usado .

No soy muy fanatica de estos libros pero igual me he dado tiempo de leer algun que otro libro que me han aconsejado, aca te va:

• Conversaciones con Dios de Neale Donald Walsh
• Prem Rawat ( tiene excelentes charlas ,y con una musica que te sensibiliza monton)pero no caigas en la famosa cadena que el te ofrece,recuerda solo el mensaje , escuchalo y ya!,no sigas con el marketing posterior. porque si lo sigues terminaras con el llaverito de la cara de Prem Rawat.

En todo caso El Secreto es un excelente producto comercial, la industria de la autoayuda esta cada vez mas lucrativa.Los beneficios de pensar en forma positiva son obvios.desafortunadamente el libro tambien enfoca a la idea de que la mente es capaz de sanar el cuerpo,esto no es magia,pensamiento positivo mas la adecuada atencion medica ,claro que ayuda en momentos de crisis de salud.yo personalmente tuve un cancer que esta ya erradicado,con la ayuda de mis queridos,mas la fe y la oportuna medicina y por supuesto "Pensamiento Positivo".

Solo ten Fe, tal vez no soy la persona mas adecuada de decir esto ya que ni me congrego en ninguna iglesia tal vez porque me aburri de los hipocritas que asisten y ni practican los mandamientos que tanto defienden,en fin ,el feedback que tienen las iglesias hoy por hoy no es la mejor,si crees en alguien superior que de una u otra forma esta resguardando tu caminar por esta vida y sabes que te quiere ,para mi eso es fe,para mi ese alguien es Dios... CREE no es necesario buscar en ningun otro lado,tienes la solucion tan cerca y lo tratas de buscar en un libro sumamente marketeado.a eso se le llama jugar con las ilusiones y esperanzas de las personas que pasan por dificultades y que no tienen el apoyo oportuno de sus queridos.

La vida nosotros la hacemos dificil,con nuestras propias negaciones,aprende a ver el vaso siempre lleno,aprende a respetar y a ser honesto con el que tienes al lado,si haces un bien no lo proclames a los siete vientos,mientras mas anonima sea tu ayuda mas te engrandeces como persona.no juzgar de manera tajante ni facilista a una persona.date el tiempo de concerla,comprenderla y por supuesto respertar su forma de pensar.Se feliz o trata de serlo al menos.

• ANIMO
• FUERZA
• TRABAJO
• AMOR
• CONSTANCIA
• FE
• HONESTIDAD
• RESPETO

Hacer de estas palabras nicho para tu vida y agregale el pensamiento positivo y ya tienes la formula de todos los exitos.yo estoy trabajando en eso y no te niego que he comenzado a tener un cambio.ahora depende de ti.

SUERTE...
