One of the best msg i have come across... worth reading!
a group of friends visited their old university professor.
conversation soon turned to complaints about
'stress' & 'tension' in life.
professor offered them coffee & returned from kitchen with coffee in different kinds of cups !!!
(glass cups, crystal cups, shining ones, some plain looking, some ordinary & some expensive ones......)
when all of them had a cup in hand, the professor said:-
if you noticed all the nice looking & expensive cups are taken up, leaving behind the ordinary ones !!
everyone of you wanted the best cups & that is the source of your stress & tension !!
what you really wanted was "coffee", not the "cup" !
but you still went for the best cup.
if life is coffee... then jobs, money, status & love etc. are the cups !!!
they are just tools to hold and contain life.
please don't let the cups drive you !!
enjoy the coffee ......!!!
