Are We Really Educated - Day 3

                                                                  Week 5 -    Day 3

A man travelling from one village to another during summer time, suddenly forgot his way. It was very hot and no one was seen around. He found a tree and thought will rest under the tree. There was a river nearby. He was very hungry and thirsty. He ate the fruits from the tree and rested for sometime. The man was very grateful for the kindness the tree had shown.

He asked, " Dear tree, you have been so helpful towards me. What can I give you. Ask me anything and I shall give it to you". The tree replied that it had everything and did not want anything. The man still forced the tree to ask for something. The tree then said, " The way I showed you kindness and helped you, I expect you to be the same way to whoever comes to you. This is all I want".

In life there are some relations that are meant to provide security to us. A light paper wants a paper weight as security so that it does not fly due to the wind. Similarly, the rope is a security for the kite and a cow is safe until it is with its master, else anyone can slaughter it. But what is our security in life? A relation in our life is our security or is it a bond for us? Is there any relation that we feel is our security in life? In life we have to make a relation our security only if he/she has the following qualities in them:

1. Heart filled with Love:

We have to accept those relations that has a heart filled with love,  as our security. A sister is secure with her brother, a child is safe with his parents. Love is when we accept the other person even after they make mistakes and when we have a heart to forgive them and give them a chance to change. Did we ever find such a Love address or did we ever become the Love address for someone else? If we take security at a wrong address, our life will be at risk. There is unconditional love towards people who are filled with love towards us and who show us the right way. A relation of choice will  be stable only with a resolution and will never be stable if we become aggressive. Divorce happens because of aggressiveness. We must have the strength in us to forgive another person's mistakes.

2. Purity:

A relation should be made where there is purity. Today's world has become so dangerous that a man starts a relation as a brother but ends it as a husband. In a country, a VVIP is given the best security. But who is the VVIP in our life? There are four things that are our top VVIP. Our body is our first VVIP. How grateful are we? How happy are we in life. Situations are never in our hand, so we should never that we will be happy when situations change. The next VVIP in our life is our mind. How much is our effort to take care of our mind? The third VVIP in our life is our heart because a relation starts from the heart. But in life we have made money are top most priority! The fourth VVIP in our life is our soul. If these four are disturbed, our life will have no meaning. So we will definitely get security under the relation that is filled with purity.

Let us make the difference and build strong relations!
