![]() | this is what i had read from an email that cheryl sent me...it's really very meaningful...for people who view life in their own way... a group of working adults got together to visit their university lecturer.the lecturer was happy to see them.conversations soon turned into complains about stress in work and life. the lecturer just smile and went to the kitchen to get some assortments of cups-some pocelain,some in plastic,some in glass,some plain looking and some looked ratther expensive anf exquisite. the lecturer offered the cup to his former students to get drinks for themselves. when all the students had a cup in had with water,the lecturer spoke:"if you had notice,all the expensive and nice looking cups were all taken up.leaving the plain-looking and cheap cups behide.while it is normal that you want the best for yourself,that is the source of your problems and stress.what all you wanted was the water but not the cups,but we all unconsciously went for better cups." just like in life,if life is water.money,jobs and positions in works in society are the cups.they are ust tools to uphold/maintain life,but the quality of life does'nt change at all. if we just concentrate on cups,we would'nt be enjoy the water in it. that's what i agree: yes indeed we need to substain our lifestyle,but we need to enjoy life also.money and positions are just tools that make life more enjoyable and time past faster.why worry about the work and stress...destress is very important!humans are normally just attracted to things that we can see with our own naked eye.only the beautiful and special stuffs are remember,but not the plain and normal ones...looking things in a different way let a normal and plain looking things looked more speacial...so chilled and destress...enjoy life... |
