The “Unstoppable” “You”
In a village called Barsi lived two
best friends Oreo and Jack. Oreo aged six and Jack ten years of age. But the
bond of friendship was so strong that age gap hardly made any difference. They
use to do everything together. They use to eat together. Play together. Dance
together. Bath together. Sleep together. They love doing everything together. The
friendship they shared was intense and was growing with each passing day.
One fine day, they were out for a
stroll in the deserted region of their village. While, they were walking all of
a sudden, Jack tumbled on a stone and fell into the deep dark well. Little Oreo
cried and shouted loudly for help. As he wanna escape his dear friend Jack down
their crying for rescue. Oreo looked
around in search of succour. But unfortunately, there was nobody to help me.
Without any adieu he rolled his
eyes further if something can be done to rescue his poor friend. God is great I
must say. He saw a little bucket tied with a rope lying on the well over there.
Without any delay, he threw the bucket into the well. And told Jack to sit in
the bucket and hold the rope tight. The tiny tot Oreo with all his strength pulled
the bucket rope. He continued pulling the rope with all his might thrusting his
little shoulders till his Jack came out.
Tears of joy rolled in eyes of
both. Both were hugging each other with utmost joy. They jumped and danced. At the
same time, fear could be seen in their eyes. Fear of falling. And fear of
people’s reaction in their village when they would tell their story. The terror
of the scolding they would get after that.
But no such thing happened. As villagers
didn’t even believe their story instead, they made fun of the two. That such
thing is just not possible. The story of little one pulling out the big one is
just not possible. Nobody believed the kids except, the one old wise man in the
village. He literally heard their story and believed them thoroughly. Therefore,
he called the people in the village.
People gathered around the old
man sitting with the two kids. Villagers asked the old man do you believe in
their story. And old man said “yes”, I do believe the kids. They are telling
how they did that. Everyone questioned “how it’s possible”? How that 6 years
old Oreo could pull out the ten years old Jack out of the well. The old man looked
upon Oreo and asked, hey, my boy is there anyone around when you were rescuing
Jack. And he said, “no” nodding his head in utmost dismay.
Old man then said, my dear
friends, here is the answer. There was no one around to tell that little Oreo
at that particular time, at that particular place that “ HE CAN’T ”. Even he
himself wasn’t there to tell “I can’t”. That’s the reason that 6 year little
Oreo was able to pull out the 10 year old Jack out of the well with all his
power. Here lies the secret.
It’s only when you concentrate
all your energy on what “YOU CAN” eluding the people out who always tell you “You
can’t”. Only then you can discover that “exra” factor in your ordinary life.
And my dear friend,
Only when that “extra” gets added
into your “ordinary” life the submission you get is “EXTRAORDINARY”.
“EXTRA” + “ORDINARY”== “EXTRAORDINARY”
