A man went to his counselor and complained that he was not able to bear the troubles of life. The counselor put a handful of salt in a tumbler of water and asked him to drink it. He could not. Then he put a handful of salt in a jar of water and asked him to drink it. He tried and said, “It is ok. I can manage. It is not so bad.” Then the counselor took him to a river and threw a handful of salt in the river and asked him to taste the water. The man tasted the water and said that he didn’t even feel the presence of salt. His counselor explained, “It was the same amount of salt that I put in the tumbler, jar and river. Our life problems are like that. If your mind is narrow you will feel the pain of your problems acutely. The broader your mind becomes, the lesser you will feel your problems.” The man gradually developed a broad mind and learned to face problems with a smile.
Life is fraught with tensions and tears. Don’t become desperate. Handle them, solve them or manage them. Take-iteasy life will save you from break-down.
