    A beautiful story about love

    A woman came out of her house and saw three old men with long white beards sitting in her front yard. She did not recognize them. She said " I don't think I know you, but you must be hungry. Please come in and have something to eat ."

    " Is the man of the house in home?" they asked .
    " No", she replied. "He's out ."
    " Then we cannot come in", they replied .
    In the evening when her husband came home, she told him what had happened

    " Go tell them I am in home and invite them in ."

    The woman went out and invited the men in .

    " We do not go into a House together!" they replied .


    " Why is that?" she asked .

    One of the old men explained : "His name is Wealth," he said as pointing to one of his friends, and said, pointing to another one , "He is Success , and I am Love ." Then he added, "Now go in and discuss with your husband which one of us you want in your home ."

    The woman went in and told her husband what was said. Her husband was overjoyed . "How nice!" he said . "Since that is the case, let us invite Wealth. Let him come and fill our home with wealth !"


    His wife disagreed . "My dear, why don't we invite Success ?"


    Their daughterinlaw was listening from the other corner of the house. She jumped in with her own suggestion : "Would it not be better to invite Love? Our home will then be filled with love ."


    "Let us heed/follow our daughterinlaw' s advice," said the husband to his wife !

    "Go out and invite Love to be our guest."

    The woman went out and asked the three old men , "Which one of you is Love? Please come in and be our guest ."
    Love got up and started walking toward the house. The other two also got up and followed him. Surprised, the lady asked Wealth and Success: "I only invited Love ; Why are you coming in ?"
    The old men replied together : "If you had invited Wealth or Success, the other two of us would've stayed out, but since you invited Love , wherever He goes, we go with him. Wherever there is Love, there is also Wealth and Success ."

    THE MOST BEAUTIFUL HEART
    One day a young man was standing in the middle of
    the town proclaiming that he had the most beautiful heart in the whole valley.
    A large crowd gathered and they all admired his heart for it was perfect.
    A beautiful story about love HeartThere was not a mark or a flaw in it.
    Yes, they all agreed it truly was the most beautiful heart they had ever seen.
    The young man was very proud and boasted more loudly about his beautiful heart.
    Suddenly, an old man appeared at the front of the crowd and said, "Why your heart is not nearly as beautiful as mine."
    The crowd and the young man looked at the old man's heart. It was beating strongly ... but full of scars. It had places where pieces had been removed and other pieces put in ... but they didn't fit quite right and there were several jagged edges.
    In fact, in some places there were deep gouges where whole pieces were missing.
    The people starred ... how could he say his heart is more beautiful, they thought?
    The young man looked at the old man's heart and saw its state and laughed. "You must be joking," he said. "Compare your heart with mine ... mine is perfect and yours is a mess of scars and tears."
    A beautiful story about love Heart"Yes," said the old man, "Yours is perfect looking ... but I would never trade with you. You see, every scar represents a person to whom I have given my love ..... I tear out a piece of my heart and give it to them ... and often they give me a piece of their heart which fits into the empty place in my heart ... but because the pieces aren't exact, I have some rough edges, which I cherish, because they remind me of the love we shared.
    Sometimes I have given pieces of my heart away ... and the other person hasn't returned a piece of his heart to me. These are the empty gouges ... giving love is taking a chance. Although these gouges are painful, they stay open, reminding me of the love I have for these people too ... and I hope someday they may return and fill the space I have waiting. So now do you see what true beauty is?"
    The young man stood silently with tears running down his cheeks. He walked up to the old man, reached into his perfect young and beautiful heart, and ripped a piece out. He offered it to the old man with trembling hands.
    The old man took his offering, placed it in his heart and then took a piece from his old scarred heart and placed it in the wound in the young man's heart.
    It fit .... but not perfectly, as there were some jagged edges.
    The young man looked at his heart, not perfect anymore but more beautiful than ever, since love from the old man's heart flowed into his.
    They embraced and walked away side by side.</TD></TR></TABLE>
