Reflection and learning about the old legend This also happens can be very useful. We know that our attitude to problems, failures or everyday situations is a condition of what happens to us. Thus, the perception that everything happens is healthier than being emotionally anchored to a situation.
As much as something seems big and complicated, everything happens, facing the situation, managing the emotions that makes us feel or change our minds knowing that the situation will happen are strategies that we can use to live with suffering while we are doomed to endure as a traveling companion.
Let’s read the legend and think about it
For some, will the popular legend happen? This can be an easy way to see problems. However, while simple, it is still useful. Everything can change and we can learn from any person or situation.
Legend has it that a king asked the sages of his court for a special ring:
? I want you to make a beautiful ring and hide a message that can help me in times of despair. This message must be very brief for it to be written to the ring.
These scholars had written great treatises, but they did not know how to write a two- or three-word message that could help the king at a time when he felt that this help could make a difference.
The monarch had an old servant who said
? I am not a wise man or a scholar, but I know the message you are looking for, because a sage shared it to me some time ago.
The old man wrote three words on a small piece of paper, folded it, and handed it over to the king with the warning: “Don’t read it, keep it hidden in the ring. “Open it only when you feel like everything is gone, wrong and can’t find a way out of it.
The time came when the kingdom was invaded and the king had to flee on horseback to save his life while his enemies were chasing him, he arrived at a place where the road ended on the edge of a cliff and then remembered the ring. He opened it, pulled out the paper and there he found the following message 😕
As he read this phrase, the enemies chasing him were lost in the forest after missing his way, and soon stopped hearing the jokes of the horses, after this beginning, the king managed to assemble his army and return to the kingdom.
In the kingdom there was a great feast that lasted several days, the monarch wanted to share the joy with the old man, who soon thanked him for this pearl of wisdom and told him how these words had helped him prevent enemies from finding his place. and don’t jump that cliff when everything seemed lost.
The old man, smiling because he understood the king’s joy, asked him
? Now look at the message again.
Seeing the king’s expression of wonder, who took a long time to understand the relevance of this moment to this message, he explained: “This message is not only for desperate situations, but also for those who are pleasant. because when you consider yourself defeated it is also for when you feel victorious, not only when you are the last, but also when you are the first.
The king opened the ring and read the message: “Will it happen too?” Then, and only then, did he understand the depth of these words.
? Remember, everything circumstantial happens. Either because you’re left behind or because you’re getting used to it, remember the old servant?Only you, who stay forever.
