Written by John Kruse, one of the leading experts on Bailiff Law, this consumer friendly guide is essential reading for anyone who comes into contact with a bailiff.
The book is easy to understand and clearly explains the rights
a bailiff has, and also what they cannot do when collecting debts and repossessing goods etc.
I hope you find this as magical as I did ..........
The story goes that some time ago a man punished his 5-year-old
daughter for wasting a roll of expensive gold wrapping paper. Money was tight and he became even more upset when the child pasted the gold paper so as to decorate a box to put under the Christmas tree.
Nevertheless, the little girl brought the gift box to her father the
next morning and said, "This is for you, Daddy." The father was embarrassed by his earlier overreaction, but his anger flared again when he found the box was empty. He spoke to her in a harsh manner, "Don't you know, young lady, when you give someone a present there's supposed to be somethinginside the package?"
The little girl looked up at him with tears in her eyes and said, "Oh,
Daddy, it's not empty. I blew kisses into it until it was full." The
father was crushed. He fell on his knees and put his arms around his little
girl,and he begged her to forgive him for his unnecessary anger.
An accident took the life of the child only a short time later and it
is told that the father kept that gold box by his bed for all the years of
his life. And whenever he was discouraged or faced difficult problems he
would open the box and take out an imaginary kiss and remember the love of the child who had put it there.
In a very real sense, each of us as human beings have been given A
golden box filled with unconditional love and kisses from our children,
family, friends and God. There is no more precious possession anyone could hold.
What a beautiful story, and how true your observation Sally. I'm sitting here with tears in my eyes thanking all the powers in the universe for the health and love of my family and friends.
good one sally.
Each one of us with children have tears in our eyes after reading that.
At this time of year in particular, my thoughts go out for ALL children, who are abused, in homes, on the streets etc, and for parents/family of those who have lost children. For them it will NOT be a merry christmas.
The Box
