Chinna Katha -- The Perspective -- with a wonderful meaning.

[Guest guest]

Dear Pals in TBP,

 

Love and Love alone.....

 

Here is a Chinna Katha, with a wonderful meaning. It all depends on

you look at it. I have received it from a different source and

sharing it with you all. Kindly read and re-read and remember.

 

Love and Love alone....

THE PERSPECTIVE

 

One sees the top of a coin and says it is Heads, the other sees it

from the other side and says it is Tails - who is correct?

 

Both are. It is the same coin being seen from two different sides.

You have the power to see from both sides - so it is your decision

which side you want to be in - the top or the bottom, the left or

right.

 

On one side is God and on the other is the world (a reflection of

God).

 

The coin is like a one sided mirror - in the centre. God sees you

but till you are seeing from the other side - you only see the 'I'

and not God. The diagram below somewhat captures what is trying to

be expressed.

 

Heads COIN Tails

 

[[GOD]] [Faith Belief || Knowledge Wealth] [WORLD] - I

 

It is just our own created perspective. I came across this message

and felt that it enhances the above topic of discussion. For your

reading and comments.

 

What makes a person rich?

 

One day a father of a very wealthy family took his son on a trip to

the country with the firm purpose of showing his son how poor people

live. They spent a couple of days and nights on the farm of what

would be considered a very poor family.

 

On their return from their trip, the father asked his son, " How was

the trip? "

 

" It was great, Dad. "

 

" Did you see how poor people live? " the father asked.

 

" Oh yeah, " said the son.

 

" So, tell me, what did you learn from the trip? " asked the father.

 

The son answered: " I saw that we have one dog and they had four. We

have a pool that reaches to the middle of our garden and they have a

creek that has no end. We have imported lanterns in our garden and

they have the stars at night. Our patio reaches to the front yard

and they have the whole horizon. We have a small piece of land to

live on and they have fields that go beyond our sight. We have

servants who serve us, but they serve others. We buy our food, but

they grow theirs. We have walls around our property to protect us,

they have friends to protect them. "

 

The boy's father was speechless.

 

Then his son added, " Thanks, Dad, for showing me how poor we are. "

 

Isn't perspective a wonderful thing? Makes you wonder what would

happen if we all gave thanks for everything we have, instead of

worrying about what we don't have.

 

Appreciate every single thing you have, and most of all the One who

has given it all to you.
