Mr. Rich met old Mr. Needy on a chilly winter night outside his house and asked, he is not wearing any coat..doesnt he feel cold?

Mr. Needy replied that he has no coat and that he is used to without coat now, so does not feel cold.

Mr. Rich asked Mr Needy to wait outside his house, till he gets him a coat. Mr. Needy was elated and waited outside his house patiently.

Mr. Rich on entering his house, got busy with other daily chores that he completely forgot about Mr. Needy and the promise given to him!

Next morning, on stepping outside his house Mr Rich remembered Mr Needy and went searching for him. Few steps away he saw Mr Needy extremely critical because of cold.

There was a note next to him which read…

When I did not have any warm clothes, I had the power to fight the cold because I was used to that. But when you promised me to help me, I got attached to your promise and that took my power of resisting......

Blaming others for disappointing you OR blaming yourself for expecting too much from them… Choice is ours !!

No regrets.. just lessons,

No worries..just acceptance,

No expectation…just gratitude.

Life is tooooo short :-)
