Interesting Analogy
I found this analogy interesting:
You are holding a cup of coffee when someone comes along and bumps into 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 there was coffee in your cup.
Had there been tea in the cup, you would have spilled tea.
Whatever is inside the cup, is what will spill out.
Therefore, when life comes along and shakes you (which WILL happen), whatever is inside 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?"
When life gets tough, what spills over?
Joy, gratefulness, peace and humility?
Or anger, bitterness, harsh words and reactions?
You choose!
Hey @creon , that was really an interesting analogy . Well written . I totally agree with you on this . Life as we know ,has no ulterior motive other than happening .life happens for us and not to us . So no point blaming it on life . It's all about the energy and vibration we emit ,which comes around ,either good or bad . Its for us to decide. We need to emit less and absorb more good vibes .when we feel good inside , life happening around us seems to be good .it's what's inside that matters !. thanks for the post .was a nice insight . You have my vote. Steem on !
Glad it was insightful to you.... As you have said nothing happens to us, they happen for us. For our Good. One thing have come to realize is that problems some way are opportunities for us to be better, but our attitude determines how we translate them... Am glad I met you man @manchow
Likewise brother ! And I totally agree with you ..life always there with it's arms wide open , to hug us with opportunities .we just gotta have an open mind , a good heart and like you said ,a proper attitude towards our lifes and life of others surrounding us ..
@manchow I would like you to see this.
See! That's exactly what life does. It provides us with opportunity . It's everywhere . In different forms . In form we would never expect that to be . We just need to choose the right one and work on it . Thank you for posting it . What's is this book tho .? That's was nice .
The book is titled Think and Grow Rich by napoleon Hill.

I wish to invite you to the Megamind community...
#megamind
Thank you for the invite @creon. i will definitely try to have look at that book . And i was wondering how can contribute to the community #megamind.. thanks again .
#megamind community is a new community am trying to set up on steemit.. The importance of using the hashtage is that members of the community that use the same hashtag can easily access your post and upvote you. As long as you use the hashtag.
Imagine we have 500 members in the community, that means you have a potential of getting 500 up votes from your family on steemit and you also support others as much as they support you. There are other benefits tho..
I hope these explains it if not feel free to ask more questions
