FREEZE! Stop. Take a couple minutes to read this! 
Start your day off with a different frame of mind, a more OPEN frame of mind. 
This book I’m reading (listening to) has been so GREAT!! I just loved this story and have to share it with the world. It speaks truth to the fact that we don’t know everything about everyone…that we all often pass judgement NOT even knowing ones story…everyone deserves to be understood, God made us with our differences for a reason! 
There was an older farmer who had puppies for sale so he put a sign on his fence. A boy about eight years old from across the road came over and said he wanted to buy a puppy. He then pulled out a pocketful of change and said, “I’ve got thirty-nine cents; is that enough?”
The farmer laughed. “I don’t know,” he said. “Let me count it.”
He counted coin by coin. “That’s exactly the right amount,” he told the boy.
He called to his farmhand and told him to let out the puppies. Four of the cutest little fur balls you could imagine came scurrying toward the little boy. He reached down and played with them, trying to figure out which one he wanted to buy.
Then he looked up and saw that a smaller pup was just coming down the ramp from the puppy cage in the barn. There was something wrong with this puppy’s back legs. It tried to run, but the best it could do was hobble along.
The little boy was immediately drawn to it. Without hesitation he said to the farmer, “That’s the puppy I want.”
The farmer was puzzled. He said, “No, son. You don’t want this puppy. It will never be able to run and play like the rest of the litter. There is something wrong with its back legs.”
The little boy reached down and rolled up the legs of his jeans to reveal steel braces on his legs. For the first time, the farmer noticed he wore specially made shoes.
He said to the farmer, “You see, I don’t run well either. This puppy needs someone who understands it.”
