Scratch and burn

 Hello my friends,
welcome to the year 2009.
as we have entered into this year, im sure many of us have come up with a list of resolutions for this year.
even me, i have come up with a few resolutions for this awesome year 2009

in today's note
i am refering to a song by U2, called Starring at the sun
there's this line which always catches my attention
it goes like this
"There's an insect in your ear
If you scratch it won't disappear.
It's gonna itch and burn and sting
Do you wanna see what the scratching brings!"

so i was just imagining that if we have an itch on our hands
but what we do is we wont stop sratching it..
it wont dissapear, neither will the itchiness go away.
by scratching, we are just making the itchiness more worse
what we should do is to take some ointment and apply it to the itch


similarly, comparing this to any other problem we face in life
either with a person, or with an object. and with any obstacle that come our way
if we just sit and moan about the object of our obstacle, it wont dissapear
it wont go away
what we should do is to get down to our action plans and set up the things taht we should do
to make these obstacles dissapear

i would give 2 other examples

example 1:
if you are driving your car, and suddenly you discover that you have a flat tyre
u get down of your car, and u scream and shout at the tyre.
will your problem get fixed?? no rite??
the tyre will get fixed only if u change the tyres
the point here is that you take action and change it


example 2:
you are very hungry, u go to the kitchen, take out a book
and read the recipe of how to make your favorite curry
does it satisfy your hunger?? does it makes u feel full.?
no right.

so the point here is Not only to take action
but to stop grumbling about what problem you have,
stop exaggerating to other people about your problem

coz we as human beings, we are always confronted with problems


therefore: the moral of this not is to stop complaining and start doing something.

Cheers
