hidup ni macam secawan kopi?


Tengah hujan...bila tengah hujan, mesti macam terasa nak minum secawan kopi yang panas sambil baca buku..(ahaha..dulu masa belajar2 takde plak rasa camtu..uhuks)..aku pun menggoooogle gamba kopi..(erk..nape tak buat je kopi? MALAS! lagipun kalo buat kopi sendiri mesti tak sedap) Sambil menengok2 gamba kopi tetibe terjumpe cite ni..spiritual story amende tah..tapi moral/pengajaran cite ni bagus la..



A group of alumni, highly established in their careers, got together to visit their old university professor. Conversation soon turned into complaints about stress in work and life.

Offering his guests coffee, the professor went to the kitchen and returned with a large pot of coffee and an assortment of cups - porcelain, plastic, glass, crystal, some plain looking, some expensive, some exquisite - telling them to help themselves to the coffee.

When all the students had a cup of coffee in hand, the professor said: "If you noticed, all the nice looking expensive cups have been taken up, leaving behind the plain and cheap ones. While it is normal for you to want only the best for yourselves, that is the source of your problems and stress.

Be assured that the cup itself adds no quality to the coffee. In most cases it is just more expensive and in some cases even hides what we drink. What all of you really wanted was coffee, not the cup, but you consciously went for the best cups... And then you began eyeing each other's cups.

Now consider this: Life is the coffee; the jobs, money and position in society are the cups. They are just tools to hold and contain Life, and the type of cup we have does not define, nor change the quality of life we live.

Sometimes, by concentrating only on the cup, we fail to enjoy the coffee. Savor the coffee, not the cups! The happiest people don't have the best of everything. They just make the best of everything. Live simply. Love generously. Care deeply. Speak kindly

Suke part terakhir tu..live simply, love generously,care deeply and speak kindly..okla, till then...
