Life teaches us a lesson every day. It is upon us to decide which path we have to undertake.
To learn from what life has to teach us or to just surrender in the hands of life.
There are 2 kinds of people.
- First, Who think that whatever happens in life is DESTINY and they cannot control it.
- Second, Who believe in the fact that whatever happens in life,happens for a reason. We have to learn the lesson that life has to teach us and move on...
Just wondering which category you belong to?
I definitely belong to the second one.
Few days back i read the book "Who moved my cheese?"
Its a simple, thin book. Its a story which features 2 mice 'hem' and 'haw', two "little people" 'sniff' and 'scurry', and their hunt for cheese in a maze.
With such simplicity the book tells the story about these 4 characters. How they adapt to the changes in their life(when their cheese is gone.).
Its makes one realize which one of the four characters are we?
Are you the little people 'sniff' and 'scurry' who are always active and alert,can foresee changes happening in their lives,and are prepared for them.
Are you 'Haw' who hopes for the situation to change everyday. When he sees no new cheese coming, he decides for a new cheese search. It is then that he realizes that the cheese did not disappear suddenly. It was from his continual eating which he was unable to foresee, and that eventually led to the cheese disappearing.
He realized that 'If You Do Not Change, You Can Become Extinct'. Thus he begins his new search for cheese again.
Though he is fearful of the path he has chosen, he is smiling and thinking that "When you move beyond your fear, you feel free."
Are you the 'Hem' who cannot believe the fact that his cheese has gone. He is sure that this cannot happen to him and someday he will find his cheese again. He is not letting the cheese go. He wants that cheese only.
It is for us to realize who we are, and who we want to become?
