Hi everyone! Today's motivation story is "The Story Of Being There For Someone"
Once upon a time. A nurse took the tired, anxious servicemen to the bedside. Your son is here, she said to the old man. She had to repeat the words several times before the patient's eyes opened. heavily sedated because of the pain of his heart attack, he dimly saw the young uniformed Marine standing outside the oxygen tent.
He reached out his hand. The Marine wrapped his toughened fingers around the old man's limp ones, squeezing a message of love and encouragement.
The nurse brought a chair so that the Marine could sit beside the bed. All through the night, the young marines sat there in the poorly lighted ward, holding the old man's hand and offering him words of love and strength.
Occasionally, the nurse suggested that the Marine move away and rest awhile. He refused whenever the nurse came into the ward, the marine was oblivious of her and the night noises of the hospital the clanking of the oxygen tank, the laughter of the night staff members exchanging greetings, the cries, and moans of the other patients.
Now and then she heard him say a few gentle words. The dying man said nothing, only held tightly to his son all through the night. Along towards dawn, the old man died. The Marine released the now lifeless hand he had been holding and went to tell the nurse. While she did what she had to do he waited. finally, she returned.
She started to offer words of sympathy but the Marine interrupted her. Who was that man? he asked. The nurse was startled, he was your father, she answered. No, he wasn't the marine replied. I have never seen him before in my life.
Then why didn't you say something when I took you to him? I knew right away there had been a mistake, but I also knew he needed his son, and his son just wasn't here.
when I realized that he was too sick to tell whether or not I was his son, knowing how much he needed me, I stayed. you see in life in your life! the next time someone needs you just be there.
Stay you can be the star in someone's universe you can be there for someone who really needs you there are some people out there in the world some who you might not even know that depend on you and that is just waiting for you to be there so be that be there.
