Dream house.....

My House would be a reflection of me. When you look at this home, it would be almost as if you were looking into my soul. Every corner of this house will show my personality and in some cases will even show my inner self.

Once you've reached my front door you will begin to notice how well thought out this house really is. To make my guest feel more welcome, I have decided to put double doors. These doors will be made out of oak and they will have stain glass to give it character.

As you enter my hall, you will notice a water fountain like small water fall. The fountain will be made out of white marble and natural stone, and will have a soothing effect and the sound of water would feel you like you are near to the nature. the hall will have a special kind of ceiling which would have vine all around the ceiling. I will have a small skylight installed so the sun can highlight my water fountain. Directly behind the water fountain will be a swirling staircase.

It is just beginning of My Dream House, please add more thing and idea into My Dream House .

I will enjoy if people write about their Dream House.....

So let the story begin .......

True eyes............

I heard a story of blind person who admitted in the hospital. One man was allowed to sit up in his bed for an hour each afternoon to receive his daily medical treatment.  His bed was next to the room's only window.  The other man had to spend all his time flat on his back.  The men talked for hours on end.  They spoke of their wives and families, their homes, their jobs, their involvement in the military service, and where they had been on vacation.

Every afternoon when the man in the bed by the window could sit up, he would pass the time by describing to his roommate all the things he could see outside the window.  The man in the other bed began to live for those one-hour periods where his world would be broadened and enlivened by the description of activity and color of the world outside.

The window overlooked a park with a beautiful lake.  Ducks and swans played on the water while children sailed their model boats.  Young lovers held hands and walked amidst flowers of every color of the rainbow.  Grand old trees graced the landscape, and a fine view of the city skyline could be seen in the distance.  As the man described his view from the window in exquisite detail, the man on the other side of the room would close his eyes and imagine the picturesque scene.

One warm afternoon the man by the window described a parade passing through the park.  Although the other man could not hear the band, he could see the parade in his mind's eye, as the gentleman by the window developed a detailed picture with his descriptive words.

One morning, the nurse arrived to bring water for their baths only to find the lifeless body of the man by the window, who had died peacefully in his sleep.  She was saddened and called the hospital attendants to take the body away.

As soon as it seemed appropriate, the other man asked if he could be moved next to the window. The nurse was happy to make the switch, and after making sure he was comfortable, she left him alone.  Slowly, painfully, he propped himself up on one elbow to take his first look at the world outside.  Finally, he would have the joy of seeing it for himself.  He strained to slowly turn to look out the window beside the bed.  To his surprise the window faced a brick wall.

The man called for the nurse and asked what could have compelled his deceased roommate to describe such wonderful things outside this window.  The nurse responded that the man was blind and could not even see the wall.  She said, "Perhaps he just wanted to encourage you."

The moral of the story is there is tremendous joy in making others happy, despite our own situations.  Shared grief is half the sorrow, but happiness when shared, is doubled.  If you want to feel rich, just count all the things you have that money cannot buy.  Today is a gift, that is why it is called the present.

 How we look at the world and how the other people look at , it might be different but the beauty of nature can only be experience by true heart.
