Carpenter's House
An elderly Carpenter was ready to retire. He told his employer contractor of his plans to leave the house building business and live a more leisurely life with his wife enjoying his extended family.
He would miss the paycheck, but he needed to retire. They could get by.
The contractor was sorry to see his good worker go and asked if he could build just one more house as a personal favor. The carpenter said yes, but in time it was easy to see that his heart was not in his work. He resorted to shoddy workmanship and used inferior materials. It was an unfortunate way to end his career.
When the carpenter finished his work and the builder came to inspect the house, the contractor handed the front door key to the carpenter. "This is your house" he said, "my gift to you".
What a shock! What a shame! If he had only known he was building his own house , he would have done it all so differently. Now he had to live in the home he had built none to well.
So it is with us. We build our lives in a distracted way, reacting rather than acting, willing to put up less than the best. At important points we do not give the job our best effort. Then with a shock we look at a situation we have created and find that now we are living in the house we have built. If we had realized we would have done it differently.
Think of yourself as the carpenter. Think about you house. Each day you hammer a nail, place a board, or erect a wall. Build wisely. It is the only life you will ever build. Even if you live it for only one day more, that day deserves to be lived graciously and with dignity. The plaque on the wall says, "Life is a do-it-yourself project." Your life tomorrow will be the result of your attitudes and the choices you make today.
So friends, whatever we do we should use our full efforts to that. We never know what will happen tomorrow!!!!
Be good to others...... ......... .. God will be good to you!!!
The above post I have read in some other forum and have just reproduced it over here.

Re: Carpenter's House

Taken from a blog called 'Wisdom of The Hands' - Carpenter's hands:
"... the answer to improving American education is not to be found in hands folded idly in prayer, but in the carpenter's hands--- training, skill, service and devotion."
(What may be true for 'American education' may also be true for the field of hand reading)
Thank you Pravin Kumar.

Re: Carpenter's House
Since I could not post this separately due to message received that the length of the title should be between 10 to 255 characters I am posting it here:
“It's the heart afraid of breaking that never learns to dance. It is the dream afraid of waking that never takes the chance. It is the one who won't be taken who cannot seem to give. And the soul afraid of dying that never learns to live.”
Bette Midler
Again the above piece is lifted from another forum.
