Pedro had a
friend who would keep losing his pens. So Pedro gifted him an ordinary pen but
told him that it had been used by a great personality. Months later, the pen
remained with the owner who took all precautions to not lose it.
The pen was ordinary but the owner believed it to
be valuable because he had been told of its history. The value had increased in
his perspective. Now, he was careful to transcend his earlier carelessness.
This is something that happens to us in life. We are
careful with the things we value most. Hence it is important to attach value to
all things of priority. Then we will not be careless with them.
If we value our health, we will be careful of what
we eat. If we value friends, we will treat them with concern. If we value time,
we will be careful the way we spend it. So on and so forth
attach value and soon you will find
carefulness is now on your mind!
