A construction supervisor from the 16th floor of a building was calling a worker on the ground floor.
Because of the noise, the worker did not hear him.
To draw his attention, the supervisor threw a Rs. 10 note in front of the worker.
The worker picked up the note, put it in his pocket and continued working.
Again to catch his eye, the supervisor threw down a Rs. 500 note.
Again, the same thing was repeated.
The supervisor was peeved. He picked up a small stone and threw it down on the worker. The stone hit the worker.
This time, the worker looked up & the supervisor was finally able to talk to him.
This story is the same as our life.
God from up there wants to communicate with us, but we are too busy doing our worldly jobs.
Then, he gives us small & big gifts.
We go ahead and keep them without looking up or thinking about how we got them.
In other words, we pocket our rewards, without ever thinking of thanking him.
We say we are lucky.
And when we are hit with a small stone, a metaphor for the problems that we finally encounter in life, we think of looking up and communication with him.
That’s why it is said, God gives and forgives and we get & forget.
Has the world been hit with a small stone?
Is it a reminder from God to communicate with him?
Remember God & be grateful to him for all that he has given us.
This too shall pass,
Stay happy, stay safe & stay blessed forever.
