touchIng story..
There was once this guy who is very much in love with his girl. This
romantic guy folded 1,000 pieces of paper cranes as a gift to his girl.
Although, at that time he was just a small fry in his company, his
future doesn't seem too bright, they were very happy together. Until one
day, his girl told him she was going to Paris and will never come back.
She also told him that she cannot visualise any future for the both of
them, so they went their own ways there and then...
Heartbroken, the guy agreed. But when he regained his confidence, he
worked hard day and night, slogging his body and mind just to make
something out of himself.
Finally with all the hard work and the help of friends, this guy had
set up his own company ...
You never fail until you stop trying.
One rainy day, while this guy was driving, he saw an
elderly couple sharing an umbrella in the rain walking
to some destination. Even with the umbrella, they were still drenched.
It didn't take him long to realize they were his girl's parents. With a
heart in getting back at
them, he drove slowly beside the couple, wanting them to spot him in
his luxury sedan.
He wanted them to know that he wasn't the same anymore, he had his own
company, car, condo, etc. He made it! What he saw next confused him,
the couple was walking towards a cemetery, and so he got out of his car
and followed...and he saw his girl, a photograph of her smiling sweetly
as ever at him from her tombstone and he saw his paper cranes right
beside her...
Her parents saw him. He asked them why had this happened. They
explained, she did not leave for France at all. She was ill with cancer. She
had believed that he will make it someday, but she did not want to be his
obstacle...
therefore she had chosen to leave him. Just because someone doesn't
love you the way you want them to, doesn't mean they don't love you with
all they have. She had wanted her parents to put his paper cranes beside
her, because, if the day comes when fate brings him to her again...he
can take some of those back with him...Once you have loved, you will
always love. For what's in your mind may escape but what's in your heart
will remain forever.
The guy just wept...The worst way to miss someone is to be sitting
right beside her knowing you can't have her, see her or be with her ever
again.........hope you understand.
Find time to realize that there is one person who mean so much to you,
for you might wake up one morning losing that person who you thought
meant nothing to you.
Where were you when skies were grey
