People
ask me why do good when all we receive is bad.. Here is the answer?
A 6
yr old boy was in the market with his 4 yr old sister........Suddenly the boy
found that his sister was lagging behind.
He
stopped and looked back. His sister was standing in front of a toy shop and was
watching something with great interest.
The
boy went back to her and asked,"Do you want something ?" The sister
pointed at the doll.
The
boy held her hand and like a responsible elder brother, gave that doll to
her.The sister was very very happy...
The
shopkeeper was watching everything and getting amused to see the matured
behaviour of the boy...
Now
the boy came to the counter and asked the shopkeeper,
"What
is the cost of this doll, Sir !"
The
shopkeeper was a cool man and had experienced the odds of life. So he asked the
boy with a lot of love n affection,"
Well,
What can you pay ?"
The
boy took out all the shells that he had collected from sea shore, from his
pocket and gave them to the shopkeeper. The shopkeeper took the shells and
started counting as if he were counting the currency. Then he looked at the
boy.The boy asked him worriedly,"Is it less ?
"
The shopkeeper said," No,No...
These
are more than the cost. So I will return the remaining." Saying so,he kept
only 4 shells with him and returned the remaining.
The
boy, very happily kept those shells back in his pocket and went away with his
sister...
A
servant in that shop got very surprised watching all these. He asked his
master," Sir ! You gave away such a costly doll just for 4 shells ???
"The
shopkeeper said with a smile," Well, For us these are mere shells.
But
for that boy, these shells are very precious. And at this age he does not
understand what money is, but when he will grow up, he definitely will.
And
when he would remember that he purchased a doll with the Shells instead of
Money, he will remember Me and think that world is full of Good people.
It
will help him develop a positive attitude and he too in turn will feel
motivated to be Good !
Mind
Mantra - Whatever emotion you infuse into the world, it will further spread. If
you do good, goodness will spread. If you do bad, negativity will spread.
Realize
you are a very powerful source of energy.
Your
good or bad will come back to you magnified. Not in the ways you want it, and
probably not in the ways you can imagine or understand it. But it will come
back.
