ONE, IS IMPORTANT

"Nothing carries meaning. People carry meaning. We are the porters of importance." - Jarod Kintz
A couple was going on vacation but the wife was on a was on a business trip, so the husband went ahead to the destination first for his wife to join him the following day. When he reached his hotel, he decided to send his wife a mail, telling her about the place. Unfortunately, when typing his wife's address, he mistyped a 'single' alphabet: so his mail was sent instead, to an elderly lady whose husband had just passed the day before. When the grieving widow checked her email, she took one look at the monitor, let out a piercing scream, and passed out flat. At the sound, her family rushed into the room and saw this on the screen:
"Dearest Wife,

Arrived safely, and just got checked in. Everything is prepared for your arrival tomorrow.

P.S: Sure is hot down here."

Have you ever wondered how important each letter of the English alphabet is: when writing a statement, or spelling a name? The removal, addition or erroneous placement of one alphabet, can change the entire meaning of an idea, and the addition of a single digit more, in a cheque sum, can result in serious consequences.

This experience goes to show 'how important' everyone is. The old lady fainted because of one mistyped letter, in an address. This means if people mistreat you, or their seemingly insignificant house help or gate keeper, there can occur dire consequences. NEVER look down on yourself, or anyone else for that matter. You, as well as they, are important.
