The Smooth Hoses
Yesterday, while I was walking with my cousin,she was speaking about an incident which made her heart skip a bit.
The incident was like this, two parents were taking their kids aged 5 and 7 yrs old to school.The parents were talking shop and deeply engrossed in it and the children were walking before them on the pedestrian street for sure, but there was a difference, the pedestrian street was the dumping yard of big fiber hoses of the telephone exchange.
The hose was so smooth that even cats could slip and fall, on that these children were walking easily.
When she said it, the first thing that came to my mind was, the children live the moment, whatever comes to mind, they do. They do not look at the consequences of their actions.
The wise would say, think twice before you act. It is good, but if our whole life, the moment, the day, the months and years,then there would be time only for thinking and no actions.
So let loose your fear once in a while and take the risk, but don't try to walk on that smooth pipes. I would not advise that. But for helping others, go ahead.
Until then, take care,bye
