One day a professor came to the class and said, "Come on, get ready for the surprise test.
All the students got nervous… Some pages of pages started turning of the notes given by the head.
"All this will not work…", the professor smilingly said, "I am putting the question paper in front of you, when all the papers are distributed then you can turn and see the question paper", The papers were distributed.
"Okay ! Now you can see the paper, the professor instructed.

The next moment, everyone was looking at the question paper, but what? There was no question in this! Was just a black spot on white paper!
What is this, sir? There is no question in this, a student stood up and said.
Professor said, "Whatever is in front of you. All you have to do is expand it… and for this work you have only 10 minutes… Let’s get started… ”
Students had no choice… they started writing their answers.
Time ran out, the professor collected the answer sheets and began to read them in turn.
Almost everyone tried to explain that "black spot" in their own way, but no one talked about the white space around that spot.
The professor said being serious, "This test has nothing to do with your academics nor am I going to give any marks to it." I have only one motive behind this test. I want to tell you a wonderful truth of life…
See… 99% of this entire paper is white… but none of you wrote about it and put your 100% answer in explaining only one thing which is only 1%… and this is our life I also get to see…
Problems are a small part of our lives, but we focus all our attention on them… some are worried about their looks, some are worried about their careers, and some others are just crying for money.
Why don't we be happy to count our blessings… Why don't we say thank you to God for our food… why not we are thankful for our beloved family…. Why don't we pay attention to 99% of the things in life that really make our life good.
So, from today on wards, let's not take life problems more seriously than necessary and learn to ENJOY the small happiness of life….
Only then we will be able to live life in the true sense ..
I agree with you! Nice post!!

@murliwala, thank you very much for this short story. This is so true! We focus our attention in small and negative things, and we expand those things, but is very common to ignore the great and beautiful things that comform our lifes and in fact, make our lifes better.
