Give what you have…

                           

                                      YOU ARE WHAT YOU GIVE; NOT WHAT YOU ARE GIVEN.


Once a man was walking through a road to reach a shop. The road was very busy and he kept the left side of the road for walking. He just turned towards a side where he heard a man's sound particular sound. It was a beggar and he wished to get something from the passenger. By seeing the poor condition of the beggar, the man decided to give him a ten rupee note.

The beggar doesn’t have a leg but kept smiling.

The man just moved ahead after giving him the ten rupee note. Before taking more steps, the beggar called him back to share the food which he has. The passenger surprised on the behavior of the beggar and continued his journey by thanking him.

Frequently people bare the complaint that they don’t have anything to spare: time, money, and love. Let us learn from the beggar that ‘to share things what we have’. We needn’t wait to become a rich man to serve the poor, share what you have at present. If you fail to share things today you never share things.

Learn to be contented with the things that we have.

Then a question “Don’t we have any dreams or goals in life?”

Achieving a goal or cherishing a long dream never can be accounted with contentment. Contentment comes from within; fulfilment is something outer concern. We are inculcating these values from our childhood, but why do we fail when we grow. For an instance, when we visit a pilgrimage center with our family and wish to drop some deposits in the treasury, whom do you give the money when the child is with you. Surely, we will give the money to the child and kindly ask the child to drop the money in the treasury box.

The beggar has got two positive attitudes mainly; to convey his greatness to the person who helped him with a small amount of money, secondly to return something to the person as a feeling of gratitude.

                    “A self-contented life is the happiest life”.

Opportunity

  Opportunity “Your big opportunity may be right where you are now.” Napoleon Hill                 In the words of William Arthur Ward, opportunities are like sunrises. If you wait too long, you miss them. A time struck in everyone’s life without an intimation. A path where the people await to complete the assigned task. We should never wait for opportunities but realise the openings in each realm of life. In short make use the time in a fulfilled manner.                 It may be tiresome for all to knock repeatedly at the same door. Only rare can realise that an action that happens frequently will be fruitful.   Repeat the knocks until an opportunity strikes you. It may feel like a shameful task but one desires patience to get the result. Sometimes, our knockings never be fruitful according to our direction but it may l...

Resilience

  Resilience The power to arise again from mistakes and failures. A positive adaptation from adverse reality. Mistakes are common as we are humans. Regretting over the mistakes does less benefit than solving or rectifying them. Learning from mistakes and instructions promises, that those mistakes will never be repeated. A bounce back. It is time to rectify our own mistakes as we shouldn’t be ashamed to disclose them. The mistakes or failures that occur in our lives teach us effects, that it shouldn’t be monotonous in life. So, we need a revival from past experiences. In short, resilience is a bounce back to our normal sense. We do learn from failures that there are a few steps ahead of us to accomplish the goal. A man with resilience can survive well because he has experienced adverse phenomena and failures. Further, he has undergone tough times.
