Twenty Dollar


Twenty Dollar A well-known speaker started off his seminar by holding up a $20 bill. In the room of 200, he asked, who would like this $20 bil?


Hands started going up. He said, I am going to give this $20 to one of you but first, let me do this.


He proceeded to crumple 1 the dollar bill up. He then asked, who still wants it?


Still the hands were up in the air.


Well, he replied, what if I do this? And he dropped it on the ground and started to grind it into the floor with his shoes.


He picked it up , now crumpled 2 and dirty. Now who still want it?


Still the hands went into the air.


My friends, you have all learned a very valuable lesson. No matter what I did to money, you still wanted it because it did not decrease in value. It is still worth $20.


Many times in our lives, we are dropped, crumpled,and grounded into the dirt by the decisions we make and the circumstances that come our way. We feel as though we are worthless. But no matter what has happened or what will happen., you will never lose you value: dirty or clean. crumpled or finely creased 3. you are 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


You are special ----Don't ever forget it!
