Let GO!

There was this story of a young boy whose parents were rich. On a fateful day, this boy was playing with a very expensive vase in his father's house. Mistakenly, his hand got stucked in the vase. He tried all he could to get his hands out, all to no avail. He went to his father who tried all his best, but couldn't help his son out. Now the only possible option was for them to break the vase! An expensive vase for that matter.

However, his father told him to try for the last time. He instructed his son to stretch out his fingers inside the vase, keeping it as straight up as possible and pull out. He also demonstrated the procedure to his son. But his son told him; 'father, its not possible for me to do that'. 'Why?' asked the father with surprise. The son replied 'if i open my hands, my coin will drop inside the vase.'  Alas! He has been holding on to a coin all the while. Little wonder he could not free his hands inside the vase.

Hermann Hesse once said: some of us thinks holding on makes us strong. But sometimes, it is letting go. In our next series of updates, it is from this stiory that we will be bringing out nuggets of inspiration and motivation about letting go. A whole lot of things are needed to be released in order to get the best result. Letting go in real sense doen not mean loosing. Its a sign that we are strong enough to take certain risks in life and move on.

Please join me as we rub minds together on this series of mind blowing revelation.
Catch ya later!
