Mark was walking home from school one day when he noticed that the boy ahead of him had tripped and dropped all the books he was carrying, alogn with two sweaters, a baseball bat, a glove and a small tape recorder. Mark knelt down and helped the boy pick up the scattered articles.Since they were going the same way, he helped to carry part of the burden. As they walked, Mark discovered the boy's name was Bill, that he loved video games, baseball and history, he was having a lot of trouble with his other subjects and that he had just broken up with his girlfriend. MArk went home after dropping Bill at his house. They continued to see each other around school, had lunch together once or twice, and then both graduated from junior high school. They ended up on the same high school, where they had brief contact over the years. Finally the long-awaited senior year came. Three weeks before graduation, Bill asked Mark if they could talk. Bill reminded him of the day tears ago when they first met. " Do you ever wonder why I was carrying so many things home that day?" asked Bill. "You see, I cleaned out my locker because I didn't want to leave a mess for anyone else. I had stored away some of my mother's sleeping pills and I was going home to commit suicide. But after we spent some time together talking and laughing , I realised that if I had killed myself, I would have missed that time and so many others that might follow. So you see Mark, when you picked up my books that day you did a lot more. You saved my life." - John W Schlatter, Speaking tree
After reading this story I feel so proud to share this story... as once even I had a plan to do the same as Bill but then life takes you somewhere else... maybe it was Bill's destiny to meet Mark .... but then god is always their to show a perfect.. sometime imperfect way to us, to guide us, through the way of destiny.. I think everybody have experienced this kind of situation in their life and I hope somebody was there to help you out....
