READ ALONE. . . .ESPECIALLY THE LAST PART . . . . DO NOT RETURN
I am sending this for the
meaning of the
letter...it does
make sense and we should
take the time every day
to do what is says.
Whether you believe in
the cases or not, that is
up to you.
CASE 1:
Kelly Sedey had one wish, for her boyfriend of three years, David Marsden, to
propose to her. Then one day when she was out to lunch David proposed! She
accepted, but then had to leave because she had a meeting in 20 min. When she
got her office, she noticed on her computer she had e-mail. She checked it,
the usual stuff from her friends, but then she saw one that she had never
gotten before. It was this letter. She simply deleted it without even reading
all of it. BIG MISTAKE! Later that evening, she received a phone call from
the police. It was about David! He had been in an accident with an 18 wheeler.
He didn't survive.
CASE 2:
Take Katie Robbenson. She received this letter and being ! the believerthat
she was, she sent it to a few of her
friends but didn't have enough e-mail addresses to send out the full 10 that
you must. Three days later, Katie
went to a masquerade ball. Later that night when she left to get to her car
to go home, she was killed on the spot by a hit-and-run drunk driver.
CASE 3:
Richard S. Willis sent this letter out within 45 minutes of reading it. Not
even 4 hours later walking along the street to his new job interview with a
really big company, when he ran into Cynthia Bell, his secret love for 5
years. Cynthia came up to him and told him of her passionate crush on him that
she had had on him for 2 years. Three days later, he proposed to her and they
got married. Cynthia and Richard are still married with three children, happy
as ever!
This is the letter:
Around the corner
I have
a friend,
In this great city
that has no end,
Yet the days go by
and weeks rush on,
And before I know
it, a year is gone.
And I never see
my old friends face,
For life is a
swift and terrible race.
He knows I like him
just as well,
As in the days
when I rang his bell.
And he rang mine if,
we were younger then,
And now we are
busy, tired men.
Tired of playing
a foolish game,
Tired of trying to
make a name.
"Tomorrow" I say
"I will call on Jim"
"Just to show that
I'm thinking of him."
But tomorrow comes
and tomorrow goes,
And distance between
us grows and grows.
Around the corner!
yet miles away,
"Here's a telegram sir"
"Jim died today."
And that's what we
get and deserve in the end.
Around the corner,
a vanished! friend.
Remember to always say what you mean.
If you love someone, tell them.
Don't be afraid to express yourself. Reach out and tell someone what they mean
to you. Because when you decide that it is the right time it might be too
late.
Seize the day. Never have regrets. And most importantly, stay close to your
friends and family, for they helped make you the person that you are today.
*NOTE*
"If you judge people, you
have no time to love them"
