Today I want to present you a very short parable. It shows in an extremely accurate way why things in our wonderful country are still far from ideal.
Here is the parable itself:
A poor man asked the Buddha:
„Защо съм толкова беден?“
The Buddha answered him:
„Не си се научил да даваш“.
Тогава бедният човек казал: „Ами ако нямам нищо?“
The Buddha replied: "You have several things:
– Лице, което може да дава усмивка;
– Устни, с която можеш да благодариш или утешаваш другите;
– Сърце, което да отвориш към хората;
– Очи, с които да гледаш през призмата на добротата;
– Тяло, което да използваш, за да помагаш“.
So, actually, you are not poor.
Poverty of spirit is true poverty.
The good news is that while there are people who
- They don't spare their smiles
- They thank you for every gesture
-They use their bodies to help and
- They are open-hearted
There is hope.
I believe that more and more truly rich spirited people, handing out handfuls of beauty, harmony, peace and happiness will surround us! I believe!
