When Mr. Clark ,,a Scottish farmer heard that the luxury cruise liner,, "Titanic" was to make its very first voyage,, its maiden voyage ,, from the United Kingdom to United States of America… He had a dream to be in the ship with his wife and his five children… , He practically spent most of his life's saving to buy tickets for his entire family,, non-refundable tickets,,,.. Guess what ? ,, Just a week before the Titanic made its way to America… One of Mr. Clark's son was bitten by a dog,, The doctor recommended that the boy be quarantined, for his own safety and for the safety of others around him,,… Mrs. Clark suggested that he and the other children actually make their way of the trip.., But Mr. Clark's conscience did not allow him to leave his wife and his ill son behind….,, Wednesday,, the 10th of April, 1912 ,, as the Titanic sailed forth from the South Hampton Port in Hampshire, England ,,, Mr. Clark stood there crying tears of disappointment and frustration..,, All his money was gone ,, and none of them could make their way on the trip…,, Just % days later on Monday,, the 15th of April,, when Mr. Clark heard the news that the Titanic had sunk having collided with an iceberg ,, he started looking for the Dog,,, "Where is the Dog ?,, I should worship the Dog,, I should offer respect to the Dog,,.. If the dog had not bitten my son,, all of us in the family would be dead…
You see in Life,, isn't it amazing ,, how many plans we make,, and isn't it reality,, not everything goes according to our plans…
Even in the game of chess,, we may come completely prepared with our strategy to win the game…,, We may even make our moves,, thinking that everything will go according to what we had decided and planned…. ,, The reality however is ,, Once we have made our move,, we have no control over the moves ,,the opponent will make…We have no idea that the opponent has also made his or her plan…
Whether it's the game of chess or the game of Life,, not everything goes according to what we had envisioned in our lives…,, This is exactly why there is a great need to go with the flow…,, To not be rigid about what we had decided,, To learn to change our strategy as per the need of the moment…,,, Adjust your plans ,, Adapt to the changes that life throws at you ,, Adopt new strategies to match those of your opponent,,,.. In life , apply the greatest virtue of flexibility ,, Don't be rigid ,..,
Let's learn a very important lesson from the River Ganga… , As she emanates from the Himalayas mountains with her plan to move and reach her destination,,, She is not rigid ,, she is extremely flexible ,, As sometimes mountains throw challenges in the form of rocks on her path ,, She doesn't stop….,, She will either go above them or under them, around them,,, but she keeps moving until she reaches her destination…
Whatever challenge comes on our pathway,, just keep moving…
