Few Days Back I Read This Story And I Thought Everyone Should Read This & Try To Follow This !! 

When I was a kid , my mom liked to cook food and every day till now i remember she used to cook for us .

One night in particular when she had made dinner after a long hard day at work , Mom places a plate of bread jam and extremely burned toast in front of my dad .

I was waiting to see if anyone noticed the burnt toast . But dad just ate his toast and asked me how was my day at school . I don't remember what i told him that night, but i do remember i heard mom apologizing to dad for burning the toast.

And I will never forget what he said : "Honey I love burned toast". Later that i night , I went to kiss Daddy , good night and i asked him if he really liked his toast burned .

He wrapped me in his arms and said "Your Mamma put in a long hard day at work today and she was really tired and besides .... A burn toast never hurts anyone but harsh words do !"
You know , life is full of imperfect things... and imperfect people .. I'm not the best at hardly anything , I forget birthdays , anniversaries just like everyone else .

What I've learned over the years is that learning to accept each others faults and choosing to celebrate relationship.

Please pass this along to someone who has enriched your life..I just did !!

Life is too short to wake up with regrets ... Love the people who treat you right and have 

compassion for the ones who don't .... ENJOY LIFE NOW FRIENDS !! It Has An Expiry Date .....
