Positive Thinking

One of my friends sent me an email. I find it meaningful and interesting.

Once there was a loving couple travelling in a bus in a mountainous area. They decided to get down at some place. After the couple got down, the bus moved on. As the bus moved on, a huge rock fell on the bus from the mountain and crushed the bus to crumbs. Everybody on board was killed. The couple upon seeing that, said, "We wish we were on that bus". Why do you think they said that?

I spent a couple of minutes trying to visualize the whole situation. I've been thinking what could be the things which the couple can benefit from the tradegy. Was the big rock a big diamond? Probably they owe loanshark money and their family can benefit from the generous insurance? I was wrong.. the answer goes this way...

Think...

If they had remained on the bus instead of stopping to get down, the resulting time delay could have been avoided, and the rock would have fallen after the bus had passed...

Always think positive in life and look for opportunities where you can help others. Many times in life, the oppositive of Success is not Failure, it's Quitting. Never expect things to happen. Work hard and make them happen!
