Life Advice: Looking Through a Window



Learn the true secret of life by gazing at any window or mirror. The medium is simple, but the message - divine.

Living in today's metropolitan world of cellular phones, mobile computers and other high-tech gadgets is not just hectic but very impersonal. We make money and then invest our time and effort in making more money. Does it end? Not usually because we are never satisfied. How many times have we convinced ourselves that if only we had some more money, life would be so sweet? But then, after receiving a substantial raise, we realize that it wasn't enough and that we need more?

What Should You Do?

I have read many books on life such as Robin Sharma's Monk says this and the monk says that, and they all seem to say that money is not necessary. But it is. Can you do without cash and a lot of it? I know I can't.

So, I went to the neighbourhood Pastor and asked for advice that will help me find my true way in life.

The Pastor nodded and took me to the window. "What do you see?" he asked me.

Promptly, I answered, "I can see people walking to and from and a blind man is begging for money at the left corner."

The Pastor nodded and guided me to a big mirror. "Now look and tell me what you see?"

"I can see myself," I man answered.
