Life is not waiting for the winds to change
But it is learning to adjust your sails.
One day a Professor in his class gives a balloon to every student. He instructs them to inflate it, write their name on it, and throw it in the Auditorium. Then he tells them to find their balloon with their name on it within five minutes. A frantic search ensues, however no one finds their balloon.
The professor tells the students to take the first balloon they find and hand it to the person whose name was written on it. Surprisingly within five minutes everyone has their own balloon.
The Professor says to the students, “These balloons are like happiness. If everyone is focused on looking for their own happiness, they will never find it. However if they help other people find their happiness, in doing so they will find their own.
