Cofee Story_Fact about Life


Once a group of Students, highly established in their careers, got together to visit their old university professor.Suddenly their Conversation turned into complaints about stress in work and life.Professor Offering his guests(Students) coffee went to the kitchen and returned with a large pot of coffee and an assortment of cups - plastic, glass, crystal, some plain looking, some are expensive, some exquisite - The Professor tell them to help themselves to the coffee.

When all the students had a cup of coffee in their hand, the professor said: "If you noticed, all the nice looking expensive cups were taken up, leaving behind the plain and cheap ones. While it is normal for you to want only the best for yourselves, that is the source of your problems and stress. Be assured that the cup itself adds no quality to the coffee. In most cases it is just more expensive and in some cases even hides what we drink. What all of you really wanted was coffee, not the cup, but you consciously went for the best cups... And then you began eying each others cups.

Now consider this in real :  Life is the coffee; the jobs, money and position in society are the cups. They are just tools to hold and contain Life, and the type of cup we have does not define us, nor change the quality of Life we live. Sometimes, by concentrating only on the cup, we fails to enjoy the coffee that God has provided us." God brews the coffee, not the cups ! Enjoy your coffee! "The happiest persons don't have the best of everything. They just make the best of everything." Live simply. Love generously, Speak kindly,Care deeply, Leave the rest to God"
