A LITTLE SOMETHING FOR ALL OF YOU OUT THERE

[narissa_G]

A Storeowner was tacking a sign above his door that
>read "Puppies
>for Sale." The signs have a way of attracting
>children. Soon a little boy
>appeared at the sign and asked, "How much are you
>gonna sell those
>puppies for?" The store owner replied, "Anywhere from
>$30-$50." The little
>boy reached into his pocket and pulled out some
>change. "I have $2.37, can I
>look at them?" The storeowner smiled and whistled. Out
>of the kennel came
>his dog named Lady, running down the aisle of his
>store followed by five
>little puppies.
>One puppy was lagging considerably behind. Immediately
>the little
>boy singled out the lagging, limping puppy. He asked,
>"What's wrong with
>that little dog?" The man explained that when the
>puppy was born the vet
>said that this puppy had a bad hip socket and would
>limp for the rest of his
>life. The little boy got really excited and said
>"That's the puppy I want
>to buy!" The man replied "No, you don't want to buy
>that little dog. If you
>really want him, I'll give him to you." The little boy
>got upset. He looked
>straight into the man's eyes and said "I don't want
>you to give him to me.
>He is worth every bit as much as the other dogs and
>I'll pay the full price.
>In fact, I will give you $2.37 now and 50 cents every
>month until I have him
>paid for." The man countered, "You really don't want
>to buy this puppy son.
>He is never gonna be able to run, jump and play like
>other puppies." The
>little boy reached down and rolled up his pant leg to
>reveal a badly
>twisted, crippled left leg supported by a big metal
>brace.
>He looked up at the man and said, "Well, I don't run
>so well myself and
>the little puppy will need someone who understands."
>The man was now
>biting his bottom lip. Tears welled up in his eyes, he
>smiled and said,
>"Son, I hope and pray that each and every one of these
>puppies will have an
>owner such as you."
>IN LIFE, IT DOESN'T MATTER WHO YOU ARE, BUT WHETHER
>SOMEONE APPRECIATES
>YOU FOR WHAT YOU ARE, ACCEPTS YOU AND LOVES YOU
>UNCONDITIONALLY. A REAL
>FRIEND IS ONE WHO WALKS IN WHEN THE REST OF THE WORLD
>WALKS AWAY. SEND
>THIS TO ALL THE PEOPLE WHOM YOU CONSIDER SPECIAL. ---> I DID.
