Aspiring
to be a Good Human Being
An elderly person asked a young boy
"What do you want to become, when you grow up"
The young boy replied " I will
be a good human being" The elderly person said " I know you will be a
good human being, but I want to know what career would you like to choose?"
The young boy replied "I am not
sure what I will become but I have decided to be a good human being and an
adaptable person"
The elderly person smiled and young
boy said " I might become a doctor, but what is the use of being doctor
without being a good human being"
I might become an engineer, but what
is the use of being an unadaptable engineer in this constantly changing
world
If I focus on becoming a good human
being, I can understand myself better and with that understanding I can identify
my career interest.
The elderly person was deeply
listening to the young boy and asked "Who taught you to talk like
this?"
The young boy said " I was
taught to think not to talk"
Children are capable of deciding what
they want, all they need is freedom to be what they are.
Children become stronger when there is
value driven and inspiring adults around them.
Instead of showing them the
destination, clear their path, which is blocked with your expectations,
comparison, doctrines and dogmas.
