Life is what you make of it

Here is an interesting story, which somebody had posted on the Facebook. As you read it you will realise that indeed life is what we make of it. Our perspective towards life solely depends on how we take  various life’s events and how we look at them. The story goes as follows:
The dirty laundry
A young couple moved into a new neighbourhood.
The next morning, while they are eating breakfast, the young woman watches her neighbour hang the washed laundry outside.
“The laundry is not very clean”, she said,” she doesn't know how to wash correctly. Perhaps she needs better laundry soap.”

Her husband looked on, but remained silent.
Every time her neighbour would hang her washed clothes to dry, the young woman would make the same comments.
About a month later, the woman was surprised to see a nice clean wash on the line and said to her husband: Look! She has learnt how to wash correctly. I wonder, who taught her this?”
The husband said, “I got up early this morning and cleaned our windows”
And so it is with life. What we see when we are watching others, depends on the purity of windows through which we look.

Our life is a creation of our minds.

Is the empty house really without any inhabitants?

What happens when a couple shifts in their own house, a dream they had cherished since long. After much sweat and hard work, when they have finally accumulated the money to buy the house of their dreams, the much awaited day finally arrives and they shift in the new house. The first few days pass wonderfully, but then something starts going wrong. There is no definite proof behind the mishaps which occur, but the string of events which keep happening sometimes make you wonder if there is something in the house which is responsible for all the mishappenings. When you apply your brains you realize that this could not be possible. How can there be more unseen occupants in the house? It is not possible that the house could be haunted. Ghosts and their alikes do not exist in reality......
What could be the possible explanation behind this?
What do you think?

Have you ever faced such a situation in your life?

Faith begins when all reasoning ends

Life is very complicated. It is full of complicated questions. One must not get upset if one cannot find answers to these questions because when one tends to find the answers to these questions, life changes questions. In such complex situations, people can survive only if they have unconditional faith. It could be unconditional faith on God, or a particular person, or someone they love and trust the most.

In my book, a couple’s unconditional trust on one another despite the whole world being against them helps in saving them in face of an adversity..


    Can you think of someone upon whom you have developed unconditional support, even in situations where the faith has to extend beyond all the realms of reasoning...?
