Be Grateful for what you have.
Once there was man named Anand. Who was very frustrated with his work. One evening Anand was home, watching television. He had a lot of work pressure of late and so he was always annoyed. Anand had a son, Kannan. He was a fourth grader. Kannan came to Anand while he was watching television and sought help with his homework. Anand scolded him and asked him to do it by himself. 
The boy went back to his room. After some time, Anand felt bad for his own actions. He felt, Kannan might have really needed his help. So he went to Kannan's room and found the boy already asleep next to his books. He took the book and read the paragraph written by Kannan. It was about how some things are disliked initially and later on liked deeply. 
Kannan had written :
‘Thank you very much for annual exams; we hate it but we love it because of the summer vacation that follows.
Thank you very much for all those tasteless, bitter medicines which we don't like at all, but kept us healthy.
Thank you very much for the alarm clock, we hate its sound but we love the fact that we wake up for the day.
Thank you very much God for giving me my dad in my life. I don't like him when he shouts at me but, I love him because he takes care of me, he keep me in comfort, he buy me dolls. I have a friend whose father is no more, so I am happy my father is with me.’
Anand read it and he became very emotional. He realized how ungrateful he is to all the good things in his life. Anand started to talk to himself:
‘Thank God for the house atleast I have one, although I have my monthly EMI I still have a roof above my head.
Thank God I have a family. Many live alone, with nobody to support them.
Thank god I have a job and the work pressure because many are jobless and homeless I still have a source of income.
Thank you god for giving me this life. I have a much better life than many, I live a life which is still a dream for many.’
We all have problems..but, we all have to be focused on the opportunities and not the problem. We must equip our minds with strength. Do things with all your heart and let the result of your actions make everyone follow you.
We should learn to acknowledge how lucky we are !!

Kutty story #61

World moves on without you: There lived a teacher in a small village. He had a wife, a son who was doing his higher studies and daughter who was ready to get married. He was living a contented life when a thought came to his mind that totally disturbed his peaceful existence.  He suddenly thought that he was the reason the whole family was happy. He felt that things wouldn’t be the same for them in his absence. This thought bred in him and over a few days turned into an ego in himself. One day when he was introspecting himself as a teacher he realized that he had become egoistic but it was already late as the ego had got the better of him already. At around the same time, a yogi arrived in the village and coincidentally he was speaking about controlling ones egos and vices. The yogi said that the world remains the same although many have come and left before this and continue to do so. After the talk, the teacher approached the yogi and confesses to him that hes already suffering w...

STORY.1 It is not necessary that time favours you every time. Sometimes, it teaches a lesson : How to lead a disciplined life through difficulties Once there were two youngsters, one had an office job and the other, being blind, used to beg on the pavement of the office complex where the other worked.  The employee was never appreciated by anyone in his office and so he was demotivated. He had a tough time at his work place. Everyday, the employee on his way to and from his office, watched the blind beggar. One day he saw the begger with a note saying 'I am Blind'.

As he neared the place, the begger recognized the employee with his foot steps and said  " I understand you are the one who cam...
