Hi everyone,
I have not written for ages....I suppose,I just lost it....???Anyway...I am here today to share with you about some interesting story about a king and his friend who has the habit of looking at every situation that occurred in his life with remarks..'this is good'.
Here the story goes:
One day the king and his friend were out hunting when an accident happened...the king had his thumb blown off when he fired the gun prepared by the friend...as usual the friend remarked....THIS IS GOOD!
The king was upset with the remarks and sent him to jail...
A year later the king was captured by cannibals.He was taken to their village to be eaten,but when they noticed his missing thumb, they set him free cause they never eat anyone who is less than whole...
The king felt remorse for his treatment of his friend, visited him...anyway as usual his friend remarks was ..."THIS IS GOOD! If I had not been in jail,i would have been there with you and not here with you right now....."
In a very unusual way,the message here unfolds into exposing the following principle of life...
ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING HAPPENS FOR A PURPOSE;AND OUT OF WHAT SEEMS LIKE ADVERSITY AT THE TIME,ALWAYS COMES GOOD!
If we reflect back whatever has happened in our lives...we will discover that we have really grown or developed during that period of time...even though the reflection may still cause us discomfort in some way.We may think or feel it is unfair,but we do slowly gather experience and wisdom...
SO THE NEXT TIME YOU MAY BEGIN TO FEEL YOU ARE BEING WRONGED BY BEING STUCK IN TRAFFIC JAM,THINK ABOUT THE CANNIBALS THAT COULD BE LURKING DOWN THE ROAD A BIT,BUT WILL BE GONE BY THE TIME YOU GET THERE!
Until my next posting,just remember these words of wisdom....what others do or say about you is their stuff,how we react or not is our stuff...live with passion and take care...
