Box Full Of Love

Some time ago a man punished his 5-year-old daughter for wasting a roll
of expensive gold wrapping paper. Money was tight and he became even
more upset when the child pasted the gold paper so as to decorate a box
to put under the Christmas tree. Nevertheless, the little girl brought
the gift box to her father the next morning and said, "This is for you,
Daddy."

The father was embarrassed by his earlier overreaction, but his anger
flared again when he found the box was empty. He spoke to her in a harsh
manner, "Don't you know, young lady, when you give someone a present
there's supposed to be something inside the package?"

The little girl looked up at him with tears in her eyes and said, "Oh,
Daddy, it's not empty - I blew kisses into it until it was full." The
father was crushed. He fell to his knees and put his arms around his
little girl, and he begged her to forgive him for his unnecessary anger.

An accident took the life of this child only a short time later and it
is told that the father kept that gold box by his bed for all the years
of his life. And whenever he was discouraged or faced difficult problems
he would open the box and take out an imaginary kiss and remember the
love of the child who had put it there.

In a very real sense, each of us as human beings have been given a
golden box filled with unconditional love and kisses from our children,
family, friends and God. There is no more precious possession anyone
could hold.
