In The Same Boat

Two men were out on the ocean in a boat. One of them began drilling in the bottom of the boat, and the other, aghast said "What are you doing? Stop drilling!".  The first man replied: "It's all right, I'm only drilling on my side".

My Message:

This story has a deep message for us to learn. In this life we are all pretty much in the same boat. Every good or bad action we do has a consequence that will impact those around us. It is these consequences that will either sink or keep the boat afloat. While some of us are doing good deeds and bringing out the best in others, other people are damaging and sinking the boat we share. It is important to be the one who is keeping the boat afloat and not the latter. It is your role to assist people and encourage them to be effective individuals, find ways to show them how their part in society contributes to their mission in this world. We are all looking for a leader and we will keep searching until you stand up and make your positive mark. Let's keep the boat afloat by teaching others not to sink it.

May you have an enriching week!
