Life - as per 'A happy crow'


In my childhood, I heard one story which was very popular. And might some of you know it. It tells about how one could find happiness from any kind of situations. I don't remember it fully, but I am writing what it says in some manner.

Story:
Once upon a time, a crow flying in the sky went in the king's palace. And he had done something which the king didn't liked. He ordered his men to catch the crow and give him punishment.

The men caught him. But in their surprise, the crow didn't noticing them and even not threatened! He was enjoying even that harassing situation. Then the king decided to give different sort of tortures to him.

They lied him on the hot plates on flames, but the crow was dancing on the plate and enjoying and also singing! They all are surprised.

They drawn him into the water but the crow was enjoying singing that 'i have not taken bath since some days, thank you dear king'.

He had not only tolerated but enjoyed his time during all tortures. The king was amazed by this and felt very confused.

He then left him and asked that why he is not feeling any kind of pain or problems? And what the crow has answered can be amazing for you also!

The crow answered,

"What will be happen I don't know and what is happening is not in my hands. I can't do anything for that but why should i waste my current time in the worries? I must enjoy the time i have right now which is given by god and can't be taken by anyone. That’s what all I do. I enjoy everything everyday and every time!"
The king and his men amazed and left the crow and praised him for his wisdom and fun loving nature.

What you think? This isn't truth? Just think about it, we are always in hurry and worry of something for future forgetting our present time which we have right now. We are always worried about what will happen and not enjoying our life.

What is life? It’s a chain which is made of small moments which we have enjoyed and remembered. That is what life is for. To live, love and be happy with family. :)

It looks like story of panchtantra. We have taught in primary. But it can only be understood after some maturity.
