A Story that will ponder you now, how you think. What is there in a story? This story is just a short example of how our life is guided by our thoughts. We know that our life is the reflection of our thoughts. But rarely do we give a thought to it. We just think and do it. However, this thought only gives us rewards and sometimes made us fall into trouble. But before getting into the story, there is something that we need to know. There are many types of people in the world, so are thoughts. In this world, some people have limited resources in their life, still, those people are happy in their life. And there are some people who have everything in their life like a big house, car, money, etc. Yet those people are not happy in their life. They always feel some emptiness in their life.
They always complain about something or the other. Whether the happiness is bound to the resources, or it is something else. There is only one truth and that is what a person thinks, and he acts in a similar fashion. If a person thinking is good, then whatever is the environment around them, everything will be good. But if thinking is not good, then no matter how great a good thing is, people will definitely find any mistake and complain. That’s why our life is guided by our thoughts today we will understand this thing better through a beautiful story.
The Story of twins brothers
There was a family living in a city, in that family there were parents and their twin sons. Their sons were now 15 years old. Suddenly one day in the morning, due to some urgent work, both the parents had to go out. Also, It was not possible to take both the children along. The parents told their children that they have to go outside and they cannot take them. They asked the boys, whether they can manage to stay alone at home. The parents told them that they will come home before the evening.
Then both the sons assured their parents that no need to worry. We both are 15 years old. Both of us can live alone. And they can go without any worry or tension. The parents were very happy to listen to their sons’ replies. And they gave both the children the same toy, food, water bottle, whatever they need in their room and then they left. Both the children went to their room and play. Like that the whole day passed. And as promised, the parents returned home before evening.
The Action of the twins- example of how our life is guided by our thoughts
After coming home the parents went to the first son’s room. They were surprised to see the condition of the room. Saw all the toys have broken and thrown everywhere. The whole room is dirty. The room is scattered and that boy is sitting and crying. Then his parents asked him, what happen, why are you crying? How did all these toys break?
The boy said that the toys you gave me were not good. That’s why I broke all the toys. Then I had called my friends for playing. But I quarreled with them and they also left. Now I am feeling very upset. He keeps on complaining that Why they did not take him along. There is nothing good here. The parents were upset about seeing this.
Then the parents went to the other son’s room. They saw that their second son sitting and drawing very beautifully. All his toys were kept in the proper place in one corner of a room. The room was very clean. And also some of his friends are sitting with him and drawing peacefully. Seeing his parents, the boy hugged them and told Mom and Dad that he had a very good day today. It’s good that they left him alone. He spends a good time and had a lot of fun with his friends. After hearing this, the parents realized that despite being twins, there is a difference in the thinking of their two children.
We act as we think, as it is our nature– our life is guided by our thoughts
We act as we think, as it is our nature and this is what happens to us. Like these two children did. Both the children got the same toys. Both the children have their friends. The parents had left both the children alone. But still one of the children who appreciated the parents. And the other child who complained to the parents. Everyone in this world has some reason to be happy. But it depends on the nature and thinking of the people whether they are happy in that or not.
We are lucky that we are born as humans, who are the most benefitted of all other organisms on earth. Our brain is the most advanced one with having tremendous power. So that we can always make the right decision in our life. Whether we want to do a good job, depends on us. It’s up to us how we handle our relationship, how do we spend our life? Our happiness depends on us.
We have trouble because of us- our life is guided by our thoughts
There are so many people in this world, who are not having sufficient resources. Still, they always thanks, God that He has given them so much. They will pray for His blessings always. So that they can work harder and progress in their life. And there are some people in the world who have more than sufficient. Still, if these people will face even the slightest problem, then they will blame God for every trouble. They will always be unhappy in their life.
For the smallest problem itself, they will blame God. However, they never think that God has not given them trouble. We have created trouble for ourselves. If we think good in a hopeful and positive way, then the path of our life will be filled with happiness. If our thinking is negative and sort of blaming type, then we will have to face trouble at every step.
How we can make our life to be full of happiness
We should always remember that trouble is the second name of life. Everyone has to suffer. But it depends on our thinking that how we get out of trouble and move on. The happiness or sadness is not outside, it is within us. The sadness or happiness depends on how we think and react to the environment . Whatever happens to us in life, whether good or bad, no one else is responsible for it. Only we are responsible for that. If any trouble comes, why do people blame God first? God bless us, not create the trouble. So Stop complaining in life, be happy and move on.
Always remember that your life is your own and you can create it the way you want. For feeling positive energy you can put some posters of positive quotes in your room. You can get the quotes on https://www.goodreads.com/quotes/tag/positive-thinking
