A boy with a fractured hand!
The other day I saw a boy of say 8-10years old with a fractured hand cycling happily with his friends with one hand. They were a group of 4-5 boys, chatting away to glory oblivious of this boy’s plight and fracture. Their laughter was infectious and the chatter so joyous. It was as if ‘the fracture’ didn’t exist for them!
I am sure you all have witnessed somewhat similar situations in your life sometime! (Please share at least one of those if you have)
Now what are the facts of this situation:
1. Boy was a small boy of just 8-10yrs.
2. He had a fractured hand.
That shows ‘painful situation’ was real! But the fact which was also true was –
1. All the boys were enjoying the time
2. They weren’t brooding over a small incident – they chose to not suffer and celebrate life and live life inspite of situations!
Classic example of ‘situation is real but suffering is optional’.
They were ‘happy’ as they chose to be happy. It was a choice – not a miracle bestowed by God or their Guru on them.
