Coffee and Chemist
The proprietor of a coffee shop had been
busy all day. Being Saturday, it was very crowded and the customers were just
unending. He had been on his toes since morning.
Towards the evening, he felt a splitting
headache surfacing. As the clock ticked away, his headache worsened. Unable to
bear it, he stepped out of the shop leaving his staff to look after the sales.
He walked across the street to the Chemist,
to buy himself a painkiller to relieve his headache. He swallowed the pill and
felt relieved. He knew that in a few minutes he would feel better.
As he strolled out of the shop, he casually
asked the salesgirl, "Where is Mr. Sharma (the Chemist)? He's not at the
cash counter today!" The girl replied, "Sir, Mr. Sharma had a
splitting headache and said he was going across to the coffee shop. He said a
cup of hot coffee would relieve him of his headache."
The man's mouth went dry and he mumbled,
"Oh! I see."
This is a typical case of looking outside
ourselves for something that we have within us.
How strange but true!
The chemist relieves his headache by
drinking coffee and the coffee shop owner finds relief in a pain relieving
pill!
Debrief :-
A man hunts across the lengths and breadths
of the universe to find peace.
Eventually he finds it in his heart and
realizes that peace is really a state of mind.
