The wind of change

Things are forever changing and changes stop for no one just as time. Be a part change or be left out for good. We often want to stay in a comfortable mood and be safe and nice but things like this won't be forever. Like the weather and the wind, one day it could be raining or windy and another day it could be hot and windless. We have to live with it and flow with it instead of staying fixed. I read a book about crabs in a river. All the crabs have to hold on to the rocks to prevent the water flowing down stream to carry them along. All the time , their effort was to hold on and see the water flow passed them and also once a while a crab will flow by and they will shout hello to them. They don't know what is down stream and they are scared to let go and flow with the tide to see what is down stream. Their life passes by while holding on to the rocks. What I am saying is that there could be a different heaven down stream or they could die somehow but the point is that they know what is waiting for them instead of spending all their effort holding on to the rock. I have also read about two mouse running into different holes while the cat waits for them outside. After waiting for a while, one mouse try to change his fate by running out of his hole while the other one decides to hold back in the hole. Finally, the mouse which choose to change his fate was healthy and good while the one holding back die of hunger without knowing that the cat outside its hole have died of old age. This is the way it happen to different people who decide to change or not to change. If we stay behind we will die. We do not know the final result of our decision and it may end with different results. Namaste.
