There was a blind girl who hated herself because she was blind. She hated everyone, except her loving boyfriend. He was alwaysthere for her. She told her boyfriend, 'If I could only seethe world, I will marry you.'
One day,someone donated a pair of eyes to her. When the bandagescame off, she was able to see everything, including herboyfriend..
He asked her, 'Now that you can see the world, will you marry me?' Thegirl looked at her boyfriend and saw that he was blind. Thesight of his closed eyelids shocked her. She hadn't expectedthat. The thought of looking at them the rest of her lifeled her to refuse to marry him.
Her boyfriend left in tears and days later wrote a note to hersaying: 'Take good care of your eyes, my dear, for beforethey were yours, they were mine.'

Moral of the story : This is how the human brain often works when our status changes.Only a very few remember what life was like before, and whowas always by their side in the most painful situations.
