" I always
feel happy. You know why ?
Because I
don't expect anything from anyone.
Expectations
always hurt. Life is short,
So love your
life, Be happy, and keep smiling,
that's life,
feel it, live it, love it and enjoy it "
(William Shakespeare )
जोकर की सीख
"एक बार एक जोकर सर्कस मे लोगो को एक चुटकुला सुना रहा था। चुटकुला सुनकर
लोग खूब जोर-जोर से हंसने लगे । कुछ देर बाद जोकर ने वही चुटकुला दुबारा
सुनाया । अबकी बार कम लोग हंसे । थोडा और समय बीतेने के बाद तीसरी बार भी
जोकर ने वही चुटकुला सुनाना शुरू किया ।
पर इससे पहले कि वो अपनी
बात ख़त्म करता बीच में ही एक दर्शक बोला, ” अरे ! कितनी बार एक ही चुटकुला
सुनाओगे…. कुछ और सुनाओ अब इस पर हंसी नहीं आती। “
जोकर थोड़ा गंभीर होते हुए बोला , ” धन्यवाद भाई साहब , यही तो मैं भी
कहना चाहता हूँ…. जब ख़ुशी के एक कारण की वजह से आप लोग बार- बार खुश नहीं
हो सकते तो दुःख के एक कारण से बार-बार दुखी क्यों होते हो …हम ख़ुशी को
आसानी से छोड़ देते हैं पर दुःख को पकड़ कर बैठे रहते हैं … “
जीवन मे सफलता तभी मिलती है जब हम दु:खो को भूलकर आगे बढने का परयत्न करते है ।"

The Story of a Woodcutter
Once there was a woodcutter
who requested for a job with a merchant. Merchant gave him the job with a
very good salary for which Wood cutter felt very happy. He decided that
he will do his best in his job.
Merchant assigned his work area and the axe.
The first day, the woodcutter brought 18 trees. "Congratulations," the boss said. "Go on that way!"
Very motivated by the boss words, the woodcutter tried harder the next day, but he could only bring 15 trees.
The third day he tried even harder, but he could only bring 10 trees. Day after day he was bringing less and less trees."I must be losing my strength", the woodcutter thought. He went to the boss and apologized, saying that he could not understand what was going on.
"When was the last time you sharpened your axe?" the boss asked.
"Sharpen? I had no time to sharpen my axe. I have been very busy trying to cut trees…"
Reflection:
Our
lives are like that. We sometimes get so busy that we don’t take time
to sharpen the "axe". In today’s world, it seems that everyone is busier
than ever, but less happy that ever.
We get so much engrossed in
our daily "To Do" activities and tracking lists and we are more worried
about activities than anything else and not even the outcome of the
activities.
Why is that? Could it be that we have
forgotten how to stay "sharp"? There’s nothing wrong with activity and
hard work. But we should not get so busy that we neglect the truly
important things in life, like our personal life, hobbies, giving time
to family, contribution to society , taking time to get close to our
Creator etc.
We all need time to relax, to think and
meditate, to learn and grow. If we don’t take the time to sharpen the
"axe", we will become dull and lose our effectiveness.
