RAY

Good Morning!

A well-known speaker started off his seminar holding up a $20 bill.  "Who would like this $20 bill" he asked?” Hands started going up.

He proceeded to crumple up the $20 dollar bill. He then asked, "Who still wants it...?" Still the hands were up in the air.

"What if I do this?" And he dropped it on the ground and started to grind it into the floor with his shoe. He picked it up, now crumpled and dirty. "Now, who still wants it?" Still the hands went into the air.

"My friends, we’ve all learned a valuable lesson. No matter what I did to the money, you still wanted it because it didn’t decrease in value. Many times in our lives, we’re crumpled, and ground into the dirt by our decisions and circumstances that come our way.  But no matter what happens, you will never lose your value.
Dirty or crumpled, you’re still priceless to those who LOVE you. The worth of our lives comes not in what we do or who we know, but by WHO WE ARE.
