THE WAR

About a soldier who was finally coming home after having fought in the war. He rang up his parents from the bordering town and told the parents about his coming home after the war.He asked his parents,"i have a friend and i want to bring him with me." Parents replied,"sure, we w'd love to meet him." The soldier told the parents,"my friend hurt badly in the war and lost an arm and a leg. He has nowhere to go and i want him to come and live with us."  The parents replied,"son you dont know what you are asking, someone with such a  handicap would be a terrible burden on us.We have our own lives to live and we can not let something like this interfere with our lives. i think you should just come home and forget about this guy. He will find his way to live on his own."


At that point the son hang up the phone. The parents heard nothing more  from him. A few days later they received a call from the bordering town police. The son had died after falling from the building, they were told. The police believed it was a suicide.


The grief stricken parents reached to the bordering town and were taken to the place to identify the body of their son. They recognise him, but to their horror they also discovered some thing they didnot know, their son had only one arm and one leg.


The parents in the story are like many of us. We find easy to love those who are good looking,but we dont like people who inconvenienience us or make us feel uncomfotable. On the other hand some one who loves us with an unconditional love that welcomes us into the forever family, regardless of how messed up we are.
