"It is not our purpose to become each other; it is to recognize each other, to learn to see the other and honor him for what he is."~ Hermann Hesse
The Parable of the Rabbit and the Crow
A crow was sitting on a tree, doing nothing all day. A small rabbit observed the crow for several days. Getting envious of the easy life of the crow, the rabbit finally asked him, "Can I also sit like you and do nothing all day long?"
The crow answered, "Sure, why not? Help yourself."
So, the rabbit sat on the ground below the crow and rested. In no time at all, it falls asleep. All of a sudden a fox appeared, jumped on the rabbit and ate it.
Moral of the story: To be sitting and doing nothing, you must be sitting very, very high up.
~ Author Unknown
"A wonderful realization will be the day you realize that you are unique in all the world. The world is an incredible unfulfilled tapestry, and only you can fulfill that tiny space that is yours."
~Leo Buscaglia
"There's no reality except the one contained within us. That's why so many people live an unreal life. They take images outside them for reality and never allow the world within them to assert itself."
~Hermann Hesse
"Different strokes,
for different folks."
~Sly Stone
P.S: The moral of the story........... as I choose to see it....... is that each one of us is a part of the whole....but not the same.
We have our own unique soul signature...and must therefore choose to be ourselves.....because we cannot be anyone else ....no matter how hard we try.It's like trying to put a square peg in a round hole.
So why not be ALL of who we truly are...... instead of lamenting about who/what we are not????????????????
Namaste,
Bhagya
