I thought this would interest some of you. Isn't it amazing how true it is?

>The Same Chance Tomorrow

>

>These are thoughts I have been having for some time now...and I would like

>to share them with you before life in this world gets too crazy, and

>tomorrow never comes.

>

>

>I have come to realize many things since I connected to the Internet, in

>that we get to meet people we never would have met in any other way.

>

>We get to know these people, not by their looks or by their touch, but by

>their heart and soul. If we had met any of these people on the street, we

>may not have given them a second glance.

>

>Or, maybe we would have looked at them and said: "Hey, look how fat that

>person is," or "Hey look, there's a gay guy" or even "Hey look, there's a

>person of color."

>

>We could have done this and never have known this real person on the

>inside. This is a very sad thing,because I was one of those people.

>A person who would have done exactly that.

>

>But now, I have come to meet many people on the Internet who have

>truly touched my heart in many ways. They have made me a much better

>person.Wouldn't it be something if the whole world could be touched like

>this?

>

>To get to know each other in ways they would never have thought possible? I

>believe if they did, there would be no war, no homeless or hungry people.

>

>This also applies to the people we already know. Don't make assumptions.

>Don't be judgmental. And don't let pride get in the way of love. We should

>stop to think how it would be tomorrow if we lost that person, and we

>didn't

>have the chance to say we were sorry.

>

>So, the next time you pass someone....anyone....think about this. This

>person could be one of your Internet acquaintances ... one of those people

>you would love to meet. One of those people who have a knack

>for making your day, or for bringing some warmth and friendship into your

>life.

>

>One of those who've helped you along the way, and you'd like to repay the

>favor in some small way. Just turn to that person and give them a smile...a

>warm hello.

>

>

>

>And soon this will catch on, and soon we all will be smiling. Because if we

>don't, then the same chance tomorrow may never come.
