Good morning,evening all of my beautiful friends! I hope today was and is going to be an amazing day. Filled with friends family and of course we all know from yesterday there is always room for a couple of beers with friends. If you missed the story yesterday you must search the Mayonnaise jar & 2 beers its a fascinating story. As is this one that I have posted here today. How many times do we over look what we have right in front of our noses. We all want something better in our lives. A better house or car yet its not what the car looks like or how golden the windows are its the people that we have inside the rusty car or the house that needs painted. Its the memories, laughs and the cries that matter the most. So take the time today and see that the house you thought had golden windows was really your own. Cheers all!


The House With The Golden Windows



The little girl lived in a small, very simple, poor house on a hill and as she grew she would play in the small garden and as she grew she was able to see over the garden fence and across the valley to a wonderful house high on the hill – and this house had golden windows, so golden and shining that the little girl would dream of how magic it would be to grow up and live in a house with golden windows instead of an ordinary house like hers.

And although she loved her parents and her family, she yearned to live in such a golden house and dreamed all day about how wonderful and exciting it must feel to live there.

When she got to an age where she gained enough skill and sensibility to go outside her garden fence, she asked her mother is she could go for a bike ride outside the gate and down the lane. After pleading with her, her mother finally allowed her to go, insisting that she kept close to the house and didn’t wander too far. The day was beautiful and the little girl knew exactly where she was heading! Down the lane and across the valley, she rode her bike until she got to the gate of the golden house across on the other hill.

As she dismounted her bike and lent it against the gate post, she focused on the path that lead to the house and then on the house itself…and was so disappointed as she realized all the windows were plain and rather dirty, reflecting nothing other than the sad neglect of the house that stood derelict.

So sad she didn’t go any further and turned, heart broken as she remounted her bike … As she glanced up she saw a sight to amaze her…there across the way on her side of the valley was a little house and its windows glistened golden …as the sun shone on her little home.

She realized that she had been living in her golden house and all the love and care she found there was what made her home the ‘golden house’. Everything she dreamed was right there in front of her nose!

P.S Newbies you can search for these under the subject heading, everyone else lets spread the seeds of wealth happiness and success today. Bump this up! =0)
