Worth some thinking, or say rethinking

  

 

  A young man was getting ready to graduate college. For many months

he had admired a beautiful sports car in a dealer's showroom, and

knowing his father could well afford it, he told him that was all he

wanted. As Graduation Day approached, the young man awaited signs

that his father had purchased the car. Finally, on the morning of

his graduation his father called him into his private study. His

father told him how proud he was to have such a fine son, and told

him how much he loved him. He handed his son a beautiful wrapped

gift box. Curious, but somewhat disappointed the young man opened

the box and found a lovely, leather-bound Quran. Angrily, he raised

his voice at his father and said, "With all your money you give me a

Quran?" and stormed out of the house, leaving the holy book. Many

years passed and the young man was very successful in business. He

had a beautiful home and wonderful family, but realized his father

was very old, and thought perhaps he should go to him. He had  not

seen him since that graduation day. Before he could make

arrangements, he received a telegram telling him his father had

passed away, and willed all of his possessions to his son. He needed

to come home immediately and take care things. When he arrived at

his father's house, sudden sadness and regret filled his heart. He

began to search his father's important papers and saw the still new

Quran, just as he had left it years ago. With tears, he opened the

Quran and began to turn the pages. As he read those words, a car key

dropped from an envelope taped behind the Quran. It had a tag with

the dealer's name, the same dealer who had the sports car he had

desired. On the tag was the date of his graduation, and the

words...PAID IN FULL. How many times do we miss ALLAH blessings

because they are not PACKAGED as we expected?
