Fear Not Tomorrow

You are losing out on the joy of the present moment by draining your energies over how to get an engineering seat for your child 8 years later or get him/her married 15 years later. Such a waste of precious life!

A king once ordered his minister to be hanged. The minister started laughing when he was taken to the gallows. When the king questioned him, the minister said ‘I know how to make the royal horse fly. It seems funny that you order me to death without using this knowledge’.

The king asked ‘Can you really make it fly?’ and the minister confirmed, the king asked ‘How long will it take’. The minister said ‘one year’ and he was released for implementing this task on the condition that if he did not make the horse fly within a year, he will be hanged.

The minister’s wife is pining for her husband she thinks as dead, and is surprised to see him return home. When he explained what happened, she asked him ‘Why didn’t you ask for more time?’ The minister said, ‘If I had asked for more time, the king’s suspicions would have been aroused. Within this one year, three things may happen. Either the king will die or I will die or maybe the horse will die. Let us not worry about the future.’

That is my message. As long as you do not harm anyone or your health, enjoy life. Freak out with life. Live as God will.

You must be satisfied with life. You must be contented. If you keep worrying about what to do next, you will never taste happiness.
