of carrot, egg and coffee bean

Food for Thoughts

What they have in common? What would you choose over these 3 items above? Do you take yourself as carrot, egg or coffee bean?

 

In life, we will have to encounter any adversities. And these adversities are just like putting ourselves inside a boiling water. Imagine that what ever situation we are in, we can be like either carrot, egg or coffee bean. In fact, just take three pot of hot boiling water.

The first pot, we put carrot inside. Same goes to the egg and coffee beans. What happened next is that the carrot at first which was rock hard has become soft. After being boiled.

As for the egg, the egg still as hard as before being boiled. Look from outside, it does not have much changes. But in the inside, the egg has become hard. Just like a person's emotions, feelings and characters. The person might turned to be a totally different person just because of the adversities he or she is facing.

The coffee beans on the other hand has turned out to be something else. After being boiled, the coffee bean no longer exist. It has become the cofee with rich aroma and taste. It changes the color of the water. Be like coffee beans, which had overcome the hot boiling water and totally change the situation.

 

My message is that irregardless what situation we are in, we need to remain true to ourselves. Bring the best out of the people around you and change the situation that we are currently in. I also took this opportunity to remind myself that I need to be like coffee beans.{$lang_emotions_blush}

 

*the moral of the story is that since cofee bean is far more greater than other, when is the next round we go Coffee Bean instead of Starbuck?*
