Life is like a cup of coffee....

~Live Simple
~Love Generous
~Care Deeply
~Speak Kindly

This was what the group of alumini professionals, who visited their old professor, at the camput realised.

When they were complaining of life and stress; the professor went to the kitchen and brought a large pot of coffee and an assortments of cups: Plastic, procelein, glass, plastic; some expensive, some excusitive; and asked his ex-students to help themselves with their coffee.

All the nice cups were taken up, leaving behind the cheap and unexpensive ones. When in fact, all they wanted was the coffee and not the cup. Cup dont add to the coffee, but all want the best for themselves. This is because we eye each others cup.

Jobs, money and position in society are the cups. They are the tools to hold and contain life. Concentraing on the cup, one forgets to enjoy the conffee..when one needs to savour the coffee and not the cup.

The happiest people dont have the best of everything, they make the best of everythin.


May God of hope fill you with joy and peace.
