Thought of the Day #43 | Of The Day

When one door of happiness closes, another opens;

but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one which has been opened for us.

Life Story of Eagle

The Story of the Eagle...

The eagle has the longest life-span among Birds

It can live up to 70 years

But to reach this age, the eagle must make a hard decision

In it's 40:

Its long and flexible talons can no longer grab prey which serves as food

Its long and sharp beak becomes bent

Its old-aged and heavy wings, due to their thick feathers,

become stuck to its chest and make it difficult to fly

Then, the eagle is left with only two options:

die or go through painful process of change which lasts 150 days

The process requires that the eagle fly to a mountain top and sit on its nest

There the eagle knocks its beak against a rock until it plucks it out

After plucking it out, the eagle will wait for a new beak to grow back and
then it pluck out its talons

When its new talons grow back, the eagle starts plucking its old-aged feathers

And after five months, the eagle takes its famous flight of rebirth and lives for …
30 more years

Why is challenge needed? Many times, in order to survive we have to start a change process. We sometimes get rid of old memories, habits and other past traditions. Only freed from past burdens, can we take advantage of the present.

Thought of the Day #42 | Of The Day

Don't try to overhaul your life overnight.

Instead, focus on making one small change at a time.

Over time, those small changes will add up to big transformation.

Don't give up!

Story of the Day #1 | Of The Day

It's Never Late☝

The creator created people👦👪👧, gave them words for communication📞 and thinking, settled them in the fertile valley at the foot of the mountains, gave them longevity and started to observe, how they will aspire to the development.
The time has passed, but people did not develop. Their feet did not go beyond their village and did not climb up the mountains. Their eyes did not look at the sky and did not look in the Heart. So they became old.
The Creator decided to find out, what was the matter. He became a man and came to them as a traveller. Before sunset people gathered at the square to talk with the traveller.
He described them a life beyond the horizon and suggested:
Traveller : Do you want me to lead you there, and you will see how people live in these places?
People : — Oh, — it is late, we became old ...
Traveller : Then come with me to the mountains to look at the world from the top!
People : — Oh, — respired, — it is too late, we have no energy …
Traveller : Look at the sky, I will tell you about the life in the Kingdom of Heaven!

They answered again:
— It is late; our mind will not understand your story …
The traveller became sad. He decided to cheer people.
— Let‘s sing a song! — he said and was going to sing first, but people noticed that the sun went down.
— It is late, — they said, — it is time to sleep… — and went to their huts.
The traveller shouted them:
— People, when life is continuous and infinite, it is not late for any achievements!
But they did not turn back.
Then the Creator told himself :
— I will take away all words of limitation from people: “late”, “no”, “impossible”, “far”, “high”, “hard”, “will not understand”, and will place in their hearts the joy of infinity. Maybe they will perceive my Law:

"Nothing is late, because there is no end, there is only the beginning!"
