An old carpenter
An old carpenter is ready to retire.He tells his boss he is going to leave the house-building business and live a happy life with his wife.
The boss is sad to see his good worker go and asks if he can build just one more house as a personal favor.The carpenter says yes,but it is easy to see that his heart is not in his work this time.He works very carelessly.
When the carpenter finishes his work,the boss comes to see the house.He hands the front-door key to the carpenter.
"This is your house,"he says,"my gift to you."The carpenter is surprised What a shame!If he knows he is building his own house,he is sure to do it very carefully.So it is with us,we build our lives every day.We often put less than our best into the building.Then to our surprise we realize we have to live in the house we have built.If we can do it again,we will do it very carefully.But we cannot go back.
You are the carpenter.Each day you hammer a nail,place a board,or put up a wall."Life is a do-it-yourself project,"someone has said.Your attitudes and the choices you make today,build the"house" you live in tomorrow.Build wisely!
