The human mind is like a pond. Inside of it is teeming with activity; thoughts are born and die like the aqua fauna in a pond. But on the outside, like the surface of a pond, it prefers to be still and at peace. Every tragedy is like a stone thrown into this pond. It creats ripples in the mind, like the stone does in the pond, and disturbs the equilibrium. But with time, like the pond swallows the stone, the mind absorbs the tragedy by accepting the fact , and the ripples die down. Equilibrium returns. Some sooner than others, but ultimately it does.This state of liquidity of mind is a blessing. It is what keeps you going despite setbacks. And like the stone raises the level of the pond, dealing with the tribulation raises the level of thinking of the mind, by giving you new lessons. #yqbaba #epiphany
