LIFE IS AN ECHO
A little boy, in a fit of anger, shouted at his mother that he hated her. Then, perhaps fearing punishment, he ran to a steep cliff near their house and shouted into the valley, “I hate you, I hate you!” Back from the valley came an echo, “I hate you, I hate you!” Startled at this, the boy ran into the house and told his mother that there was a mean little boy who lived in the valley who shouted at him, “I hate you, I hate you!” His mother took him back to the hillside and told him to shout, “I love you, I love you!” When he did, back came the reply, “I love you, I love you!” Life is an echo. What we send out, we get back. We reap what we sow. By Jim DeLoach
