A very wise teacher named Lin, lying on his deathbed, is surrounded by his followers. Sally's tears cried like a child and none could soothe his crying (comfort him).
One of his followers asks:
- MESTRO, why do you cry? If you are almost as intelligent as the patriarch Abraham and as kind as Buddha!
Listening to Grandpa Lin replied:
When I go out of this world to appear before the heavenly trubunal no one will question me why I was not intelligent like Abraham or kind-hearted as Buddha.
On the contrary, the question they will ask me will be: - Lin, why were not you like Lin? Why did not you exercise your potential? Why did not you follow the path that was your own and personal?
Keep in mind that if you do not live your own life, you will live the life of another. Have you set to look at what life you are living?
I know you asked for it, but ... can I give you some advice?
