Reflection of the day: "Life and what you want to do with it is in your hands"

Since I have reason to use I worry about knowing what or what my destiny would be in this life, I like to walk knowing where I'm going, rarely in my life I walk in an uncertain direction, doing it is where I made my worst mistakes, making mistakes it is bad, many times you learn more from mistakes than from successes, but there are mistakes that leave grooves and nicks in your life, are those that are intended to forget.


Since I was very little I was wondering what I wanted to be when I grew up, as every child changed his mind constantly, everything depended on which program he saw on television, always one wanted to have the profession of the hero of the film.


Luckily my grandfather was there, he knew that he could turn to him when there were some doubts.


One morning after I finished reading the newspaper, I asked him what I could be when he grew up, he answered me with another question.


¿What do you want to be when you grow up?


I answered your question with all my doubts, one day I wanted to be one thing and the next day I wanted to be another.


He told me not to worry, that this way of thinking was very common, I would always think so until I found my true vocation.


!"Life and what you want to do with it is in your hands"!


I really do not know what face I should have put in that moment for my grandfather to say.


-If I understand you, I know you do not understand, I will tell a story that will clarify your doubts.


Surfing the web I cross with this story very similar to the one that my grandfather told, entitled the "blue butterfly" speaks of two sisters, one of them very insightful, he believed that his intelligence could surpass that of a wise old man, a beautiful history where he leaves us a great teaching.


In a distant village alive a man who widowed very young, his beautiful wife at death left him in his care two beautiful and intelligent girls, the girls were at the age of wanting to know everything, often did not have the answers to their concerns.


One morning the father crossed with a wise old man, who noticed him with his head down and worried, when asked, he commented with the wise man the little inconvenience and frustration he felt when he did not have all the answers to give his girls.


The wise old man understood the desperate situation of that father, and offered to offer his help, since that day he took care of teaching the beautiful girls, the girls were happy for the learning they received every day, the wise old man had all the answers to your questions.


One of them, the most insightful, doubted that the sage could have all the answers, for that I devised a plan to ridicule the teacher.


Every morning they walked down the path towards the old wise man's house, on the way they found a beautiful "butterfly" in bright colors, the most insightful took it in their hands, the other sister asked why she wanted the butterfly, her beauty the made it worthy to fly freely, the astute girl replied.


"I'm going to hide the butterfly in my hands and ask the wise if it's alive or dead," "If he said he's dead, I'll open my hands and let it fly. If it says it's alive I'll squeeze it and crush it. And so, whatever your response, it will be a wrong answer! "


Once inside the house of the teacher the astute girl asked the wise man she had in her hands, the old teacher worried about the girls' watching them from afar, where she could see when the girls took the "butterfly"


The answer to that question was very easy, answering that he had a "butterfly"


The girls laughed in complicity, the most astute asked again.


"The butterfly is alive or dead"?


As every teacher answered in a single sentence.


"It depends on you ... She is in your hands."!

When concluding the story that my grandfather told, I understood what he was trying to tell me. Everything that one sets out to be in life, is a decision of ourselves, the determination of what to do with it is our responsibility, success or failure can not be attributed to another person.
