There was a conversation between a father and a son.
Son: Father?
Father: Yeah?
Son: What is the value of my life?
Father: Son,Take this rock,And go sell it at a market.If anybody asks the price,rise two fingers and don't say anything.
Son: The boy then went to the market.
Lady: How much is this rock? I want to put it in my garden.
(the boy didn't say anything and raise up two fingers........)
Lady: 2$ ? I'll take it......
(and the boy went home and told his father.................)
Son:A Lady wanted to buy that rock for 2$.
Father: Son! I want you to take this rock to a museum,If anybody wants to buy it,rise two fingers and don't say anything.
(the boy then went to museum.....Man in the museum wants to buy the rock.The boy didn't say a word and put up two figures and the man..........)
Man: 200$ ? I'll take it.
(son comes home.........)
Son: Father, a man wants to buy this rock for 200$.
Father: Son,The last place I want you to take this rock is to a precious stone store.Show it to the owner and If he asks the price,rise two fingers and don't say anything.
(the boy then went to the precious stone store......He showed the rock to the owner.)
Owner: Where did you find this stone? It is one of the most rarest stones of the world......... I must have it !!How would you sell it for ?
(the boy put up two figures......)
Owner: I will take it for 200,000$
(son comes home.......)
Son: Father,there is a man who wants to buy the rock for 200,000$.
Father: Son,do you know the value of your life now?
You see it doesn't matter where you come from,where you were born,the color of your skin or how much money you have.....It matters where you decide to place yourself with and how you chose to carry yourself.You may have lived you whole life thinking you were a 2$ stone,you may have lived your whole life surrounded by people that saw your worth only for 2$,but everybody has a diamond inside them and we can choose to surround ourselves with people.....that see our value and see our diamond inside us..........
We can chose to put ourselves in a market or put ourselves in a precious stone store!And you can also choose to see the value in other people,you can help other people see the diamond inside of them.Choose the people you surround yourself with wisely.They can make all the difference in your life.
Let's take another Scenario, A bar of iron costs 5$, made into horseshoes it's worth 12$,made into needles it's worth 3500$,made into balance springs for watches,it's worth 300,000$.Your own value is determined also by what you are able to make of yourself.
"Our job in this life time is not to shape ourselves into some ideal we imagine we ought to be,but to find out who we already are and become it."(-Wayne Dyer)
When everything is going right, we don't notice.But when things fall apart, we react.May be the key to happiness is just noticing.What I'm trying to say is don't focus too much on the negative that you forget about the big picture i.e. the positive around you.
Bad News,Life doesn't always give you what you want.
Good News,It will give you what you believe in.
Don't stop believing.Life is only as good as your own belief system.If you think life is good,life is good.If you think life is bad,life is bad.Keep fighting for what you believe in and let the nonbelievers live life their way.Keep doing because life is good.Change your mindset.Change your life.
Do you love stories? If yes,So here is one......
Once upon a time,there was a farmer and he bought 2 water bottles .(Assume it a kind of pot)But unfortunately,one of them had a big hole in bottom of it.The farmer used both of these bottles to put water and brought them to his town.But the broken bottle leaked continually so that it made him feel useless.And the other bottle,to have been feeling proud,used to make tease of him every time when he spilled water.One day,the broken bottle couldn't stand it anymore and asked the farmer to throw himself away.However,the farmer smiled,with saying "Did you see the road in our town recently?"
They went back down to the road and there were many beautiful flowers. "Do you see that?" The water that you spilled so far has grown these plants.
Even though we have some bad points,we don't need to stay sad and depressed all the time.Because we also can offer help to others using our flaws.Cheer up! Life is Good!
A Quick Recap!
Try not to over-complicate things.We are only here for short time.Once this day is over,It's gone forever.The space in our mind is too valuable and precious for us to fill it with nonsense.So free your mind of nonsense.Don't be afraid to start over.It's a chance to build something better this time.Sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do and that's starting over again.Life is an experiment in which you may fail or succeed.Explore more,Expect less.
