What is the value of your
life?
One day a young boy asked his father, “what is the value
of my life?”. Instead of answering, the father told his
son, “take this rock and go sell it at the market. If
anybody asks the price, raise two fingers and don’t say
anything”, instructed the father. The boy then went to
the market and a woman asked, “How much is this rock? I
want to put it in my garden”. The boy didn’t say
anything but raised up his two fingers, and the woman
said “2 dollars? I will take it”. The boy went home and
told his father, “a woman wants to buy this rock for 2
dollars”. The father then said, “Son, I want you to take
this rock to a museum, if anybody wants to buy it, don’t
say a word, just put up your two fingers”. The boy then
went to the museum and a man showed up wanting to buy
the rock, the boy didn’t say a word but put up 2 fingers
and the man said “$200? I will take it”. The boy was
shocked, went running home and told his father, “A man
wants to buy this rock for $200”. His father then said,
“Son, the last place I want you to take this rock is to
a precious stone store, show it to the owner and don’t
say a word, and if he asks the price, just raise up your
two fingers”. The son then ran to a precious stone
store, he showed the rock to the owner, “Where did you
find this stone? it is one of the rarest stones in the
world, I must have it! How much would you sell it for?”.
The boy put up his two fingers and the man said “I will
take it for $200,000”. The boy not knowing what to say,
ran home to his father and told him that there’s a man
that wants to buy the stone for $200,000, his father
then asked, “Son, do you know the value of your life
now?”
“It matters where you decide to place yourself”
You see it doesn’t matter where you come from, where you
were born, the colour of your skin, or how much money
you were born into. It matters where you decide to place
yourself, the people you surround yourself with, and how
you choose to carry yourself. You may have lived your
whole life thinking that you were a $2 stone. You may
have lived your whole life surrounded by people that saw
your worth for only $2, but everybody has a diamond
inside them, and we can choose to surround ourselves
with people that see our value and see the diamond
inside of us. We can choose to put ourselves in a market
or put ourselves in a precious stone store. You can also
choose to see the value in other people. You can help
other people see the diamond inside of them.
Choose the people you surround yourself with wisely.
That can make all the difference in your life.

The best day of your life is
the one on which you decide your life is
your own. No apologies or excuses. No one to lean on,
rely on, or blame. The gift is yours –
it is an amazing journey – and
you alone are responsible for the quality of
it. This is the day your life really begins.

Life
moves on, whether we act as cowards or heroes. Life has no other
discipline to impose, if we would but realize it, than to accept
life unquestioningly. Everything we shut our eyes to, everything
we run away from, everything we deny, denigrate or despise,
serves to defeat us in the end. What seems nasty, painful, evil,
can become a source of beauty, joy, and strength, if faced with
an open mind. Every moment is a golden one for him who has the
vision to recognize it as such.

Who exactly do you want to
be? What kind of person do you want to be? What are your
personal ideals? Whom do you admire? What are their special
traits that you would make your own? It's time to stop being
vague. If you wish to be an extraordinary person, if you wish to
become wise, then you should explicitly identify the kind of
person you aspire to
become. If you have a daybook, write down who you're trying to
be, so that you can refer to this self-determination. Precisely
describe the demeanor you want to adopt so that you may preserve
it when you are by yourself or with other people.

It doesn't matter if the song
of life that you sing is simple or
complicated. All that matters is how much you put into that
song. Your life is controlled only by what you give to
it. You won't get anything from it if you
don't put feeling into life. That's why
people fall in love. If they give that feeling,
they get it back. Put all you've got into this life, and
when the day comes for you to pass on,
you won't regret what you did.
