Different Viewpoints

A famous writer was in his study room. He picked up his pen🖊 & started writing📝:

**Last year, I had a surgery🏥 & my gall bladder was removed. I had to stay stuck to the bed due to this surgery for a long time. 

**The same year I reached the age of 60 yrs & had to give up my favourite job🏢. I had spent 30 yrs of my life in this publishing company. 

**The same year I experienced the sorrow of the death of my father😢.

**And in the same year my son failed in his medical exam because he had a car accident👦💥🚗. He had to stay in bed at hospital with the cast on for several days. The destruction of car was another loss.

At the end he wrote: Alas! It was such bad year!!

When the writer's wife entered the room, she found her husband looking sad lost in his thoughts. From behind his back she read what was written on the paper. She left the room silently & came back with another paper & placed it on side of her husband's writing.

When the writer saw this paper, he found this written on it:

**Last year I finally got rid of my gall bladder due to which I had spent years in pain.

**I turned 60 with sound health & got retired from my job. Now I can utilize my time to write something better with more focus & peace. 

**The same year my father, at the age of 95, without depending on anyone or without any critical condition met his Creator. 

**The same year, God blessed my son with a new life. My car was destroyed but my son stayed alive without getting any disability.

At the end she wrote: This year was an immense blessing of God & it passed well!!

The same incidents but different viewpoints. If we ponder with this viewpoint that what could have happened more, we would truly become thankful to the Almighty. In daily lives we must see that it’s not happiness that makes us grateful but gratefulness that makes us happy.

You have to do something you've never done.

Story of the Day #4 | Of The Day

The Dirty Laundry

      A young couple💑 moved into a new neighborhood.

      The next morning🌅, while they are eating breakfast, the young woman sees her neighbor hang the washed laundry outside.

      "That laundry is not very clean", she said, "she doesn't know how to wash correctly☑. Perhaps she needs better laundry soap." Her husband looked on, but remained silent. Every time her neighbor would hang her wash to dry, the young woman would make the same comments.

About one month later, the woman was surprised😲 to see a nice clean wash on the line and said to her husband:

      "Look👁! She has learnt how to wash correctly. I wonder who taught her this."
The husband said: "I got up early this morning and cleaned our windows!🌆".
 And so it is with life:

    "What we see when we are watching others, depends on the purity of the window through which we look. Before we give any criticism, it might be a good idea to check our state of mind and ask ourselves if we are ready to see the good rather than to be looking for something in the person we are about to judge."

"Our life is a creation of our mind…"

Reaching Goals!🎯

One day a son👦 came to his father👨 for an advice:

      Dad, I can’t do it, - he said, - those practices only exhaust me, and the result doesn’t change. It must be not destined for me to play football⚽ and my dream will never come true.

The father looked at his son with loving eyes👀 and said:

      You know son, every person in life has a dream, a goal🎯, a wish. They are the ones who make us do what we are doing, because it’s what we should do. We have to fight for what we believe in, what we feel. In other case, you will simply break. Once - and for all. As thought you were never there. The easiest way is to quit everything and not go until the end, because the path is difficult and we are not used to inconveniences. We want everything to be easy and at once. But the wishes are fleeting! This is how our dream dies, and the goal becomes unreachable. Gradually, life becomes a routine without depth and meaning. 

      Then one day, we try to forget and start everything from the beginning, we wait for a new day to make our life different. But new obstacles come in our way, and we stop again. We become full of despair and anger for our own impotence… But you only need to remember one thing: never give up, fight, battle. It doesn’t matter that you have lost one battle and even dozens of battles. 

"Life goes on! Your biggest enemies are hiding in you 

– laziness, fear, doubt, indecision. 

Be a warrior of your dream, a knight of your goal and a soldier of your wishes."

Thought of the Day #44 | Of The Day

Umbrella can't stop the rain,

But make us stand in rain.

Confidence may not bring success,

but gives power to face any CHALLENGE in LIFE.

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.
