I didn't write this..just sharing


Once upon a time there was a girl who had four boyfriends.
She loved the fourth boyfriend the most and adorned
him with rich robes and treated him to the finest of
delicacies. She gave him nothing but the best.
She also loved the third boyfriend very much and was
always showing him off to neighboring kingdoms.
However, she feared that one day he would leave her
for another.
She also loved her second boyfriend. He was her
confidant and was always kind, considerate and
patient with her. Whenever this girl faced a problem,
she could confide in him, and he would help her get
through the difficult times.
The girl's first boyfriend was a very loyal partner and
had made great contributions in maintaining her wealth
and kingdom. However, she did not love the first
boyfriend. Although he loved her deeply, she hardly
took notice of him!
One day, the girl fell ill and she knew her time was
short. She thought of her luxurious life and wondered,
I now have four boyfriends with me, but when I die,
I'll be all alone.
Thus, she asked the fourth boyfriend, I loved you the
most, endowed you with the finest clothing and
showered great care over you. Now that I'm dying,
will you follow me and keep me company?
No way!, replied the fourth boyfriend, and he walked
away without another word. His answer cut like a
sharp knife right into her heart.
The sad girl then asked the third boyfriend, I loved
you all my life. Now that I'm dying, will you follow
me and keep me company?
No!, replied the third boyfriend. Life is too good!
When you die, I'm going to marry someone else! Her
heart sank and turned cold.
She then asked the second boyfriend, I have always
turned to you for help and you've always been there
for me. When I die, will you follow me and keep me
company? I'm sorry, I can't help you out this time!, replied the
second boyfriend. At the very most, I can only walk
with you to your grave. His answer struck her like a bolt of lightning, and the girl was devastated.
Then a voice called out: I'll go with you. I'll follow
you no matter where you go. The girl looked up, and
there was her first boyfriend. He was very skinny as
he suffered from malnutrition and neglect.
Greatly grieved, the girl said, I should have taken
much better care of you when I had the chance!
In truth, you have four boyfriends in your lives:
Your fourth boyfriend is your body. No matter how
much time and effort you lavish in making it look
good, it will leave you when you die.
Your third boyfriend is your possessions, status and
wealth. When you die, it will all go to others.
Your second boyfriend is your family and friends. No
matter how much they have been there for you, the
furthest they can stay by you is up to the grave.
And your first boyfriend is your spirit. Often
neglected in pursuit of wealth, power and pleasures of
the world.
However, your spirit is the only thing that will follow
you where ever you go. Cultivate, strengthen and
cherish it now for it is the only part of you that will
follow you you throughout Eternity.

That's true. Thanks for sharing, Lori.
