Fwd: MMM - 506 ( Monday Morning Matters..................

[Rajesh Thomas]

 

A short story – as to what spills out………………when………………

 

*You are holding a cup of coffee when someone comes along and shoves you or shakes your arm, making you spill your coffee everywhere. Why did you spill the coffee?*

 

"Well because someone bumped into me, of course!"

 

Wrong answer.

 

“You spilled the coffee because coffee was in the cup. If tea had been in it, you would have spilled tea.  Whatever is inside the cup is what will come out.

 

Therefore, when life comes along and shakes you (which will happen at all times), whatever is inside of you will come out. It's easy to fake it until you get rattled.

 

So we have to ask ourselves....what's in my cup?. What is that we have filled ourselves with.

 

When life gets tough, what spills over?  Joy, gratefulness, peace and humility?  Or anger, bitterness, harsh words and actions? You choose!
