Soothsayer vs young chap.an amazing encounter.

Once upon a time, there is this young chap went to a soothsayer to inquire about the hope of his future.

Right before his eyes, the soothsayer drew two

circles. One in white and the other in black.

He then put a millipede in between the circles,

saying *"if the millipede crawls into the white

circle, your future will be bright and very great,

but if it crawls into the black circle, then you are

finished and doomed! No future at all!".*

As soon as the insect was dropped in between

the circles, it began crawling towards the white circle.
This chap was super-excited.

But suddenly, as it got to the edge of the circle,

it turned back and began crawling away from

the white circle towards the black one.

The boy watched as the insect progressively

moved farther away from his desire to his doom.

Then, just when the insect got to the edge of the

black circle, this chap steetched his hands,

picked it up and quickly but carefully dropped it in the white circle.

The soothsayer in shock, never seen anyone

intervenes in his own matter, watching all the

while, asked the chap what he did and why he did what he did.

The boy smiled and simply replied by saying

cannot sit and watch my destiny go down the

gloom doom! While I can still do something

about it and to change its course. My destiny is in my hands.

He got up and left.

Many of us are behaving like the flip side of this

chap.

We leave too many things to chance.

We are laid back.

We Watch things messed up right under our

nose and we do nothing to change the course of

what we can help.

Many pray without a corresponding and

conscious effort, forgetting that faith without

works is dead.

What you don't want, you don't watch. If you do

nothing, nothing will happen.

There's a time for everything under the sun..

There's a time to close your eyes in prayers and

a time to open them in action.
