GOD: Hello. Did you call me?
MAN: Called you? No. Who is this?
GOD: This is GOD. I heard your prayers. So I thought I’ll chat.
MAN: I do pray. Just makes me feel good. I am actually busy now. I am in
the midst of something.
GOD: what are you busy at? Ants are busy too.
MAN: Don’t know. But I can’t find free time. Life has become hectic.
It’s rush hour all the time.
GOD: Sure. Activity gets you busy. But productivity gets your results.
Activity consumes time. Productivity frees it.
MAN: Why are we constantly unhappy?
GOD: Your today is the tomorrow that you worried about yesterday. You
are analysing. Worrying has become your habit. That’s why you are not happy.
MAN: But how can we not worry when there is so much uncertainty?
GOD: Uncertainty is inevitable, but worrying is optional.
MAN: But then, there is so much pain due to uncertainty.
GOD: Pain is inevitable, but suffering is optional.
MAN: If suffering is optional, why do good people always suffer?
GOD: Diamond cannot be polished without friction. Gold cannot be
purified without fire. Good people go through trials, but don’t suffer. With
that experience their life becomes better but not bitter.
MAN: You mean to say such experience is useful?
GOD: Yes, in every term, experience is a hard teacher. She gives the
test first and the lessons next.
MAN: But still, why should we go through such tests? Why can’t we be
free from problems?
GOD: PROBLEMS are “Purposeful Road-blocks Offering Beneficial Lessons to
Enhance Mental Strength”. Inner strength comes from struggle & endurance,
not when you are free from problems.
MAN: Frankly in the midst of so many problems, we don’t know where we
are heading.
GOD: If you look outside you will not know where you are heading. Look
inside. Looking outside, you dream.
Looking inside, you awaken. Eyes provide ‘Sight’, Heart provides ‘Insight’.
MAN: Sometimes not succeeding fast seems to hurt more than moving in the
right direction. What should I do?
GOD: Success is a measure as decided by others. Satisfaction is measure
as decided by you. Knowing the road ahead is more satisfying than knowing you
rode ahead. You work with compass. Let others work with the clock.
MAN: In tough times, how do I stay motivated?
GOD: Always look at how far you have come rather than how far you have
to go. Always count your blessings not what you are missing?
MAN: what surprises you about people?
GOD: When they prosper, they never ask “Why me”? Everyone wishes to have
truth on his or her side; few want to be on the side of the truth.
MAN: Sometimes I feel my prayers are not answered.
GOD: There are no unanswered prayers. At times the answer is NO.
MAN: Thank you for this wonderful world & kind session.
GOD: Well. Keep the faith & drop the fear. Don’t believe your doubts
& doubt your beliefs. Life is a mystery to solve not a problem to resolve.
Trust me. Life is wonderful if you know how to live. ‘Life is not measured by
number of breaths we take but by the moments that took our breath away.
