Ever been to a banquet? As something being passed around comes our way, we can reach out our hand and take some.
If it passes us, no need to stop them, get it the next time around.
Hasn’t come yet? It’ll come.
We can act this way with children, a spouse, a position, wealth – it’ll come
Let’s remind ourselves of this. As we feel ourselves getting ready to do anything to get what we want, just remind ourselves that it’ll come. We wouldn’t reach across the table and take a plate out of someone’s hands would we?
And there’s other lessons to be pulled:
- Gratitude for being at the party
- Enjoying the present moment through savoring
- It gives us a chance to not be gluttonous and stuff our face with drink and food
- We can help clean up through selflessness
It’ll come, just be patient and work towards what we’d like to make a reality
