The Twenty-Dollar Bill
A well-known speaker started off his seminar by holding up a $20.00 bill.
In the room of 200, he asked, "Who would like this $20 bill?" Hands started
going up.
He said, "I am going to give this $20 to one of you, but first let me do
this. He proceeded to crumple the $20 dollar bill up. He then asked,
"Who still wants it?" Still the hands were up in the air.
Well, he replied, "What if I do this?" And he dropped it on the ground
and started to grind it into the floor with his shoe. He picked it up, now
crumpled and dirty.. "Now, who still wants it?" Still the hands went
into the air.
"My friends, we have all learned a very valuable lesson. No matter what was done to the money, you still wanted it because it did not decrease in
value. It was still worth $20.
"Many times in our lives, we are dropped, crumpled, and ground into
the dirt by the decisions we make and the circumstances that come our
way.
We feel as though we are worthless.
"But no matter what has happened or what will happen, you will never
lose your value. Dirty or clean, crumpled or finely creased, you are still
priceless to those who DO love you. The worth of our lives comes not
in what we do or who we know, but by WHO WE ARE.
"You are special - Don't EVER forget it."
