It Is All In Ur MIND

A long time ago in China, a girl named Li-Li got married & went to live 

with her husband and mother-in-law. In a very short time, Li-Li found

that she couldn't get along with her mother-in-law at all. 

Their personalities were very different, and Li-Li was angered by many of

her mother-in-law's habits. In addition, she criticized Li-Li constantly. 

Days passed, and weeks passed. Li-Li and her mother-in-law never stopped

arguing and fighting.But what made the situation even worse was that,

according to ancient Chinese tradition, Li-Li had to bow to her 

mother-in-law and obey her every wish. All the anger and unhappiness in

the house was causing Li-Li's poor husband great distress.

Finally, Li-Li could not stand her mother-in-law's bad temper and

dictatorship any longer, and she decided to do something about it! 

Li-Li went to see her father's good friend, Mr. Huang, who sold herbs. She 

told him the situation and asked if he would give her some poison so that

she could solve the problem once and for all. 

Mr.Huang thought for awhile, and finally said, "Li-Li, I will help you 

solve your problem, but you must listen to me and obey what I tell you."

Li-Li said, "Yes, Mr. Huang, I will do whatever you tell me to do." Mr. 

Huang went into the back room, and returned in a few minutes with a 

package of herbs.

He told Li-Li, "You can't use a quick-acting poison to get rid of your 

mother-in-law, because that would cause people to become suspicious.

Therefore, I have given you a number of herbs that will slowly build up 

poison in her body. Every other day prepare some delicious meal and put a 

little of these herbs in her serving.

Now, in order to make sure that nobody suspect You.When she dies, you must

be very careful to act very friendly towards her. "Don't argue with her, 

obey her every wish, and treat her like a queen." 

Li-Li was so happy. She thanked Mr. Huang and hurried home to start her

plot of murdering her mother-in-law.Weeks went by, and months went by, and 

every other day, Li-Li served the specially treated

food to her mother-in-law. She remembered what Mr. Huang had said about

avoiding suspicion, so she controlled her temper, obeyed her

mother-in-law, and treated her like her own mother.After six months had

passed, the whole household had changed. Li-Li had practiced controlling

her temper so much that she found that she almost never got mad or upset.

She hadn't had an argument with her mother-in-law in six months because 

she now seemed much kinder and easier to get along with.The

mother-in-law's attitude toward Li-Li changed, and she began to love Li-Li like her own 

daughter. She kept telling friends and relatives that Li-Li was the best 

daughter-in-law one could ever find.Li-Li and her mother-in-law were now

treating each other like a real mother and daughter. Li-Li's husband was 

very happy to see what was happening.

One day, Li-Li came to see Mr. Huang and asked for his help again.She

said, "Dear Mr. Huang, please help me to keep the poison from killing my

mother-in-law! She's changed into such a nice woman, and I love her like

my own mother. I do not want her to die because of the poison I gave her." 

Mr. Huang smiled and nodded his head. "Li-Li, there's nothing to worry

about. I never gave you any poison. The herbs I gave you were vitamins to 

improve her health. The only poison was in your mind and your attitude 

toward her, but that has been all washed away by the love which you gave

to her."

HAVE YOU REALIZED that how you treat others is exactly how they will treat

you?

There is a wise Chinese saying: "The person who loves others will also be 

loved in return
