Everything you love will probably be lost, but in the end, love will return otherwise.

 



At age 40, Franz Kafka (1883-1924), who never married and had no children, crossed the park in Berlin when he met a girl who was crying because she had lost her favorite doll.
She and Kafka searched for the doll to no avail.
Kafka told him to meet him there the day after they'd be looking again.
The next day, when they still haven't found the doll, Kafka gave the girl a letter ′′ written ′′ by the doll saying ′′ please don't cry.
Took a trip to see the world. I will write to you about my adventures."
So began a story that continued until the end of Kafka's life.
During their meetings, Kafka read the doll's letters carefully written with adventures and conversations that the girl found adorable.
Finally, Kafka brought back the doll (bought one)
′′ It doesn't look like my doll at all," the girl said.
Kafka gave her another letter in which the doll wrote: ′′ My travels changed me." the girl hugged the new doll and happily brought her home.
A year later Kafka died.
Many years later, the now adult girl found a letter inside the doll.
In the tiny letter signed by Kafka it was written:
′′ Everything you love will probably be lost, but in the end, love will return otherwise.

Every one of us casts a shadow.

There hangs about us, a sort of a strange, indefinable something, which we call personal influence--that has its effect on every other life on which it falls. It goes with us wherever we go. It is not something we can have when we want to have it--and then lay aside when we will, as we lay aside a garment. It is something that always pours out from our lives . . . as light from a lamp, as heat from flame, as perfume from a flower.

The ministry of personal influence is something very wonderful. Without being conscious of it, we are always impressing others by this strange power that exudes from us. Others watch us--and their thinking and actions are modified by our influence."

"Be very careful, then, how you live--not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity." Ephesians 5:15-16
