Way to Achieve Goal:

One day master was watching a practice session in courtyard. All students were doing their practices.

Among all those students he noticed that there was one young man who was trying to perfect his technique but he is not able to work on that move properly and it seemed to master that young man was getting disturbed by the presence of other students.

Master could sense that young man’s frustration and went up to young man and tapped on his shoulder.

He questioned to young man, “What’s bothering you?”

Young man replied with strained expression, “I don’t know..I don’t understand why i am not able to execute this move properly. No matter how much i try..”

Master replied, “Listen, before you can master technique, you should understand Harmony. Come with me, i will explain you how you can do that?”

Master and student left building and walked some distance into forest until they reach a stream. After reaching there master and student stood silently on the bank of stream for sometime.

After a while master spoke to young man pointing at the stream, “Look at the stream. See there are rocks in its way, does it slam them out of frustration??”

No.. It will not slam those rocks but instead stream will simply flow around them and move on.. Be like water and you will know what Harmony is..”

Young man understood master’s advise and went back to courtyard to practice his move and this time, he concentrated his focus on move and barely notice other students around him and then he was able to executed the perfect move and master that technique .

Moral:
If we want To Achieve our Goal then we must try to get in Harmony with ourselves and not Let presence of Other people bother Us.

The Blind Girl (Change)

There was a blind girl who hated herself purely for the fact she was blind. The only person she didn't hate was her loving boyfriend, as he was always there for her. She said that if she could only see the world, she would marry him.

One day, someone donated a pair of eyes to her – now she could see everything, including her boyfriend. Her boyfriend asked her, "Now that you can see the world, will you marry me?"

The girl was shocked when she saw that her boyfriend was blind too, and refused to marry him. Her boyfriend walked away in tears, and later wrote a letter to her saying:

"Just take care of my eyes dear."

Moral: When our circumstances change, so does our mind. Some people may not be able to see the way things were before, and might not be able to appreciate them. There are many things to take away from this story, not just one.

This is one of the inspirational short stories that left me speechless.
