We all experience adversities in life. It may be a problem, something we fear, or pain. We may feel that these adversities are making our life difficult and miserable. But don’t be blinded of what you feel about them, there’s more to them that they actually help us improve the quality of our life. It’s just a matter of perspective.
“A Carrot, an Egg and a Cup of Coffee”
{A folklore tale of wisdom}
A young woman went to her mother and told her about her life and how things were so hard for her. She did not know how she was going to make it and wanted to give up. She was tired of fighting and struggling. It seemed as one problem was solved, a new one arose.
Her mother took her to the kitchen. She filled three pots with water and placed each on a high fire. Soon the pots came to boil.
In the first she placed carrots,
in the second she placed eggs, and
in the last she placed ground coffee beans.
She let them sit and boil; without saying a word.
