the happiness that makes us happy
Hello...
how are you friends steemians .. ??
one day a wise old man lived. One morning, there came a young man who was troubled by many problems. The steps are sluggish and the face is intricate. That guest, truly looks like an unhappy person.
Without wasting time, the man told all his problems. The wise old man, just listening carefully.
He then took a handful of salt, and asked his guest to take a glass of water. She sprinkled the salt into the glass, then stirred it slowly. "Try this, drink it, and tell me how it feels ..", said the old man.
"Bitter. Very bitter ", replied the guest, spitting sideways.
The old man, a little smile. He, then he
this guest, to walk to the lake inside the castle near where he lived. The two men walked together, and finally they came to the calm lake of the lake.
The old man, then again sprinkled a handful of salt, into the lake. With a wooden staircase, create a wave of stirred and created air ripples, disturbing the serenity of the lake. "Take water from the lake and drink it When the guest is finished drinking the air, the old man says again," How does it feel? ".
"Fresh.", Said his guest.
"Do you feel the salt in the air?", Asked Old Man again.
"No," the young man replied.
Wisely, the old man patted the young man's back. He then invited her to sit full, kneeling beside the lake. "Young man, listen, bitter life, is like a handful of salt, no more and no less.The amount and bitterness are the same, and it will always be the same.
"But the bitterness we feel will depend on the container we have in. The bitterness will be formed from the feeling in which we grow everything that will depend on our heart.
So when you feel bitterness and failure in life, there is only one thing you can do. Let your chest receive everything. Breathe your heart to accommodate every bitterness. "
The old man then gave his advice again. "Your heart, that container, your feelings is that place, your heart, is the place where you hold everything.
So do not make your heart like a glass, make a lake that can dampen every bitterness and turn it into freshness and happiness. "
Then go home. They both learned that day. And the old man, the wise man, again kept a "handful of salt", for the other young man, who often came to visit the anxiety of the soul. That's the story of togetherness.
