Things you can't recover

A young lady was waiting for her flight in the
boarding room of a big airport. As she would
need to wait many hours, she decided to buy a
book to spend her time. She also bought a packet
of cookies. She sat down in an armchair, in the
VIP room of the airport, to rest and read in
peace. Beside the armchair where the packet of
cookies lay, a man sat down in the next seat,
opened his magazine and started reading. When
she took out the first cookie, the man took one
also. She felt irritated but said nothing. She
just thought: “What a nerve! If I was in the
mood I would punch him for daring!” For each
cookie she took, the man took one too. This was
infuriating her but she didn’t want to cause a
scene. When only one cookie remained, she
thought: “ah… What would this abusive man do
now?” Then, the man, taking the last cookie,
divided it into half, giving her one half. Ah! That
was too much! She was much too angry now! In a
huff, she took her book, her things and stormed
to the boarding place. When she sat down in her
seat, inside the plane, she looked into her purse
to take her eyeglasses, and to her surprise, her
packet of cookies was there, untouched,
unopened! She felt so ashamed! She realized
that she was wrong… She had forgotten that her
cookies were kept in her purse. The man had
divided his cookies with her, without feeling
angered or bitter. “While she had been very
angry, thinking that she was dividing her cookies
with him. And now there was no chance to explain
herself, nor to apologize.”
There are 4 things that you cannot recover:
The stone… after the throw!
The word…after it’s said!
The occasion…after the loss!
The time…after it’s gone.
Cherish Every Moment and Fill It With Love and
Care For Everyone.
