This message was received from a co-worker of mine via e-mail.
Thought it would be worth a read; so I collected as part of my "Core Stories" collection.
Title & Author's name has never been recalled.
It is simply called "The Memo From God"

Memo: Ponder The Meaning of Life!
From: God
To: You
Date: Today
Time: Now
Subject: Yourself
Reference: Life
I am God, your Creator, your Universe or Whatever mean that fits your concept in reference to me.
Today I will be handling all of your problems. Please remember that I do not need your help.
If life happens to deliver a situation to you that you cannot
handle, do not attempt to resolve it. Kindly put it in the SFGTD (Something For God To Do) box.
All situations will be resolved automatically, but in My time, not yours.
Once the matter is placed into the box, do not hold onto it by
worrying about it. Instead, focus on all the wonderful things that are present in your life now.
If you find yourself stuck in traffic; Don't despair!
There are people in this world for whom driving is an unheard of privilege.
Should you have a bad day at work; Think of the man who has been
out of work for years.
Should you despair over a relationship gone bad;
Think of the person who has never known what it's like to love and be loved in return.
Should you grieve the passing of another weekend; Think of the
woman in dire straits, working twelve hours a day, seven days a week to feed her children.
Should your car break down, leaving you miles away from assistance;
Think of the paraplegic who would love the opportunity to take that walk.
Should you notice a new gray hair in the mirror; Think of the
cancer patient in chemo who wishes she had hair to examine.
Should you find yourself at a loss and pondering what is life all about,
asking what is my purpose? Be thankful! There are those who didn't live long enough to get the opportunity.
Should you find yourself the victim of other people's bitterness,
ignorance, smallness or insecurities; Remember, things could be worse. You could be one of them!
This is a short memo but should you decide to send this to those you know and even those you do not know, Thank you!
You may have touched their life in ways you might never know.
