Wonderful mail I got from a friend of mine! Read till the end!

 

Greetings to you this Day!!

 

I hired a plumber to help me restore an old farmhouse. He had just finished a rough first day on the job – a flat tyre made him lose an hour of work and his electric drill quit. And now, to top it all, his ancient one ton truck refused to start. As I drove him home, he sat in stony silence. On arriving, he invited me in to meet his family.

As we walked toward the front door, he paused briefly at a small tree, touching the tips of the branches with both hands. Upon opening the door he had undergone an amazing transformation. His tanned face was wreathed in smiles and he hugged his two small children and gave his wife a kiss.

Afterward he walked me to the car. We passed the tree again and my curiosity got the better of me.

I asked him about what I had seen him do at the little tree. "Oh, that’s my trouble tree," he replied. "I know I can’t help having troubles on the job, but one thing’s for sure, those troubles don’t belong in the house with my wife and the children. So I just hang them up on the tree every night when I come home. Then in the morning I pick them up again."

 

"Funny thing is," he smiled, "when I come out in the morning to pick them up, there aren’t nearly as many as I remember hanging up the night before."

 

All of us face problems. Most of them are momentary. The trick lies in leaving them on your own ‘trouble tree’ and not allowing it to affect your loved ones and your work. Leave these problems on a ‘trouble tree’ and you’ll find that most of them are not there when you go back to pick them up! Some of us have these ‘trouble tree’ in the form of a hobby or a work-out or community service. It could be anything! But it takes time to master!!!

 

Identify your trouble tree, master the art of hanging your problems on it and……………… Make it a great week ahead!!

Sounds gr8 rite?

 

Fwd this to your dear friends!
