Climb The Tree!!

Visualise this conversation of an Instructor and a person who is about to climb his tree;

“Hello, I don’t know what to do, it’s all confusing.”

“Don’t worry, I have this entire block filled with trees and each an every individual is climbing theirs, each tree is designed in a unique way, no one else can climb yours!”

“ But what is the point of all this? 

“Oh its for You! To reach that highest point up a tree and see the peaceful view, it will overwhelm you! Trust me the journey will be one you will remember. At the end you will come to me back with happiness!”

“Okay, so how do I start?”

“Here an instruction manual, a harness, all the things you need while climbing and there are also group of people you can ask from the past, they climbed their tree, some were successful some were not”

“ But I can’t see them?”

“They are there, some are even mentioned in the manual you hold, they will guide you along my lines and you will benefit from it when you come back to me”

“Okay, so how long does it take?”

“I know how long exactly it will take you, but for you lets keep it a secret”

“So I just climb with all this? What is I scrap a knee or hurt my elbow? Or what if I step on the wrong branch? And I fall?”

“Then don’t put all your weight on that branch, check if that way is good to take, and about the small cuts and bruises? They will heal faster then you know it. And if you fall you get back up and start again!”

“That’s tough! what if I come tomorrow to climb it? Today I don’t feel energetic”

“Trust me you just have to start, all you need is that first step, and the rest will be manageable”

“But look, at that guy his tree looks so easy and he is already half way! Maybe I should try his?”

“You will not be able to climb his, what is easy for him might not be the same for you”

“ What if I try mine in an hour?”

“You can do it now! That’s why I brought you here”

“Okay but I’m not sure! I will come back later”

“Are you sure?”

“Yes, I think I need time”

“But you realize I know when your time ends?”

“Yes I’ll be back soon very soon”

“Okay I will be here waiting for you all you have to do is come my way”

The daily struggles of the soul is like climbing a tree. Sometimes we climb fast, sometimes we fall, and sometimes we step on the wrong branch. However the Instructor is in command, if you delay in climbing it might be too late!

The good times and harsh times of life help the soul move at a higher level then what it was in. It is your choice; Either you going to walk away from the tree with all the challenges and hardships you face? OR You will use the same situations to make you a better climber?
