Said one Oyster to a neighboring Oyster, “I have a very great pain within me. It is heavy and round and I am in distress.”
A small pebble had entered in Oyster’s shell causing him distress. And the other Oyster replied with egoistic smile, “Praise be to the heavens and to the sea, I have no pain within me. I am well and whole both within and without.”
At that moment a Crab was passing by and heard the two Oysters, and he said to the one who was well and whole both within and without, “Yes, you are well and whole; but the pain that your neighbor bears is a pearl of exceeding beauty.” Today’s pain will be tomorrow’s beauty. Today’s pebble in the shell will be tomorrow’s Pearl.
We often tend to think in trouble that our life is a punishment, I am the only person in the world with a long list of problems. A puzzle would not be a problem to a Mathematician. A river would not be a hurdle for a good Swimmer.
All you need is to develop yourself and your outlook to look towards your problems.
You can’t be a good driver if you always drive on the highway without any hurdles, traffic & other vehicles !
Do not ask God to remove all problems from your life, ask God to give you enough strength to solve all problems in your life !
