The unchosen cups

It was the alumni meet of an engineering college. Around 20 students went to meet one of their professors. The students met their old professor at his place and everyone was talking to each other about how their life changed in all these years. The young bees started conversations about how hard each of their lives has turned to be. 
The professor overheard his former students and went to the kitchen. He fetched coffee for everyone in a pot. He had a plan. He displayed expensive and inexpensive cups for the coffees to be served in. 
The students grabbed coffees in the expensive cups. The professor waited for the right moment explained to his students. 
The professor pointed out how everyone's problems are because they all remain focused on the cup than the coffee.. The quality of the coffee or its purpose will not change with the cup in which it is served. We let our coffee get cold and lose its actual quality and purpose by going that extra mile for an expensive cup. 

We all have the equal opportunities and the only thing matters is how are we going to utilize them rather than thinking about the opportunities used by someone else.

The life each wished for Once there lived two farmers in a village. The farmers were friends and they worked really hard. They, more or less had the same share of land in the village and eventually with time, both of them died in the same period.  After their death both the farmers were in their after life. God asked both the farmers the same question. The first farmer was asked: how was his life and how could have God made it better for him. The farmer was so annoyed and disgraced with all the hardship he had in his life. The farmer said he had no luxury, he and his family barely had anything to enjoy. They struggled to manage each day. God kept quiet and asked the farmer what he wanted to become in his next life. The farmer wished to be someone who is unquestioned and who people gave money to. God blessed him and granted his desire.  God approached the other farmer with the same question. The farmer said he was really glad with the life God had given him. The farmer thanked ...

Proud to be an Indian Once two gentlemen were traveling by train. One was Paras, a project head in IT. Paras was not quite happy with the train travel. The other person next to him was a well- built gentleman. Paras was keenly observed by his co-passenger. He was killing time by skimming through some contents on his laptop. The other gentleman enquired if Paras was an IT professional, to which he accepted. The other person praised Paras for being an IT professional for being part of great revenue generation for the country. Paras felt proud about his profession but still remained guarded. The other gentleman asked some  more questions about Paras' profession. Paras told him that he started as a low level associate and he used to do complex coding now, he has been promoted and now he has to get the work done. The other gentleman commented  “now things would be more easy for you.”  Paras said  “it is not like that. Meeting the deadlines, getting the work done withi...
