LITTLE THINGS TRANSFORM YOUR LIVES

***LITTLE THINGS TRANSFORM YOUR LIVES*** One morning, the husband was at breakfast table… … his face hidden behind the morning paper. The frightened maid tiptoed into the room and whispered something to the wife’s ears. The wife - paled slightly - then squared her shoulders resolutely and said to her husband: “Dear, for the last seventeen years, you have been eating oats porridge in the morning. You will be very upset, isn’t it, if you don’t get it this morning?” Expecting the worst reaction, the wife began to turn away. The husband, hiding his naughty smile, however said: “Oh how sad! Yes, I will miss my daily meal! But hey! It’s also a nice chance to get something interesting to eat, without having to tell explicitly… … how bored I am with my daily meal!” The husband, without wanting to express that he wanted a change in his meal, … hid behind a casual attitude of “saying yes” without really intending! Well… such is the case with many of us as well, probably. There are many things that we don’t really enjoy… … yet, pretend that everything is fine. There are many things not going on fine with us… … but we still behave as if we are okay with everything. We sometimes are people who affirm and consent… … without really understanding or grasping the whole reality There is a "lip" yes… … but not a consent with the mind.
