- Beautiful Day!
-
Its a great day to just work outside. The temperature currently is sunny and 65 deg F. wow that feels like heaven. I was talking to my friend today and I said I wish everyday would be like this, he said well "I like snow sometimes too". So its all about " The grass is always green on the other side" isn't it???.... I guess so. If we have one thing, we want another and then another and then another........... so where does it all end??? I read a wonderful story today. I will paste it here...........
"A group of alumni, highly established in their careers, got together to visit their old university lecturer.
Conversation soon turned into complaints about stress in work and life. Offering his guests coffee, the lecturer went to the kitchen and returned with a large pot of coffee and an assortment of cups: porcelain, plastic, glass, some plain-looking and some expensive and exquisite, telling them to help themselves to hot coffee.
When all the students had a cup of coffee in hand, the lecturer said: "If you noticed, all the nice-looking, expensive cups were taken up, leaving behind the plain and cheap ones. While it is but normal for you to want only the best for yourselves, that is the source of your problems and stress. What all of you really wanted was coffee, not the cup, but you consciously went for the better cups and are eyeing each other's cups."
"Now, if Life is coffee, then the jobs, money and position in society are the cups. They are just tools to hold and contain Life, but the quality of Life doe sn't change." "Sometimes, by concentrating only on the cup, we fail to enjoy the coffee in it."
So folks, don't let the cups drive you...enjoy the coffee instead "I hope you got the message !Take care,Sandy6:38 pm on April 11th, 2006
