Learning big lessons from small objects.
You know these days the modern bathroom systems are well equipped with various kinds of faucets and taps and attachments and stuff. They also have a hand- shower attached to them which has a holder fixed to the wall for support. I used to see it every day when I went in the bathroom. Then one day it became a bit wobbly, probably due to its continuous usage. All the people in my family had realized that the holder was a little loose. We ignored. Days passed, it became looser. Days moved on, looser still. When finally it was on the verge of falling off, I decided to matters in my hands.
After thinking about this incident, I came to realize one thing: this is exactly the way we look at problems, don’t we? A problem occurs, we realize, we ignore. It persists, we ignore. When finally it gets out of control, we do nothing except making a huge big fuss over it. My question being: why don’t we uproot it straightaway? Why don’t we take control in the beginning itself? If there is a weed in your garden and you cut of its branches, it’s still going to grow. You need to uproot it, pull it out of the soil along with its roots to get rid of it completely. Same thing with the problems, folks! And basically, fussing over an issue is NOT a solution. Do something about it. If it doesn’t work out, try something else. If it still doesn’t then, yeah you have a right to fuss but not unless you rack your brains for the solution.
So wake up, get ready and be the change you want to see in the society. Speak through your actions, not merely words. Create an impact, because the world believes in proofs and effects and not just in inspiring words. J
