An SMS Chat That Changed My Life
Hi all you dudes and dudettes,
Heres something that i read in the newspaper the other day and thought I should share with all of you.
God: Hello.You called me.
I,Me, Myself: Called you?No, Who's this?
G:This is god.I heard your prayers.So I thought I will Chat With You.
IMM: Sure,I pray.Just makes me feel good.Actually, am busy now.In the midst of something,you know.
G:What are you busy with? Ants are busy too.
IMM :Dont know.But I cant find free time.Life has become hectic.Its rush hourall the time.
G:Sure,activity gets you busy.But productivity gets you results.Activity consumes time. Productivity frees it.
IMM:But I cant still figure out.By the way,I was not expecting YOU to buzz me on instant messaging chat .
G:Well, I wanted to help you resolve your fight for time by giving you some clarity. I wanted to reach you through the medium you are comfortable with.
IMM: tell me , why has life become so complicated.
G: stop analysing life.Just live it. Analysis is what makesit complicated.
IMM: Why are we then constantly unhappy?
G:Your today is the tomorrow that you worried about yesterday.You are worrying because the act of worrying has become a habit.That is why you are not happy.
IMM:But how can we not worry when there is so much uncertainty?
G:Uncertainty is inevitable but worrying is optional.
IMM:But then ther is so much pain due to uncertainty.
G:Pain is inevitable but suffering is optional.
IMM:If suffering is optional,why do people always suffer?
G:Diamonds cannot be polished without friction.Gold cannot be purified without fire.Good people go through trials.With that experience, their life becomes better ,not bitter.
IMM:You mean to say such experience is useful?
G: Yes.Experience is a hard teacher ,though.She gives the test first and the lessons afterwards.
IMM:But still, why should we go through such tests?Why cant we be free from problems?
G:Problems are Purposeful Roadblocks Offering Beneficial Lessond to Enhance Mental Strength.
Inner strength comes from struggle and endurance ,not when you are free from problems.
IMM:Frankly, in the midst of so many problems, we do not know where we are heading.
G: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.
IMM:Sometimes, not succeeding fast seems to hurt more than moving in the right direction.
G:Success is relative,quantified by others.Satisfaction is absolute,quantified by you.Knowing the road ahead is more satisfying than knowing you rode ahead.
IMM:Sometimes I ask, Who am I, Why am I here? I dont know the answers.
G:Seek not to find who you are,but to determine who you want to be.Stop looking for a purpose as to why you are here.Create it.Life is not a process of discovery but a process of creation.
IMM:How can I get the best out of life?
G:Face your past without regret.Handle your present with confidence.Prepare for the future without fear.
IMM: Sometimes my prayers are not answered.
G:There are no unanswered prayers.At times, the answer is NO.
IMM:Thank you for this wonderful chat.I'll try to be less fearful.
G:Keep the faith and drop the fear.Life is a mystery to solve, not a problem to resolve.Life is wonderful if you know how to live.

God speaks to you in ways you NEVER expect Him to speak! Keep your inner ears open and be in full attention. A little loss of it, and you'll miss God's voice you are never gonna hear again.
