When we see a child growing one criterion he/she needs to master is building blocks.It’s not simple for a 2 year old to put one block on the other and seeing it crash into a mess.
Result, crying shouting, fussing, tantrums BUT also trying again till it is mastered
Adults on a journey to tranquility have a similar pattern. We make our way with blocks, placing one after another not letting the world’s influences move them around. Using positivity and happiness to give you more blocks.
But
One fine day you see/hear/feel a situation which causes all the hard work of building to crash.
Your motivation to build is NIL
Your idea of peace seems to evaporate
Everything is just a mess!!
You look up to the vast skies and say “Why?” “ I am trying so hard but it just keeps breaking”
In response you get a block!
It is your decision:
Either start building again?
OR continue looking at the mess?
THE CHOICE IS YOURS!
