The Trout
When a trout rising to a fly gets hooked on a line and finds himself
unable to swim about freely, he begins with a fight which results in struggles and splashes and sometimes an escape. Often, of course, the situation is too tough for him. In the same way the human being struggles with his environment and with the hooks that catch him. Sometimes he masters his difficulties; sometimes they are too much for him. His struggles are all that the world sees and it naturally misunderstands them. It is hard for a free fish to understand what is happening to a hooked one. *********** Karl A. Menninger |
Very good thought. I can't help it Alffe, do you remember that TV show Kung Fu from the 70's? Master Po calls his young student grasshopper. "you have done well grasshopper!" I read all your words of wisdom and I think of that every time!:D

Alffe, what a great analogy. I feel like the fish all the time...well most of the time. I know that we do need to learn to grow from blessings of adversity...the fight with the fish with the hook.
Hugs to you all!!!:hug: |
