THE RIDDLE

 The story is told of an old man who was reputed for his wisdom and his ability to dissolve hard sentences. Presidents, governors, captains of industry visited this man to seek his invaluable advice and not once did he disappoint. He always gave the correct answers to the questions he was asked. 

One day, three young boys sought to puncture this man's reputation. Their plan was that they would approach this man with a live bird in their hands and ask him whether the birds were alive or dead. If he said they were alive, they would compress the birds in their hands until they died and if he said they were dead, they would open their hands; releasing it until the birds flew away. The second riddle the boys confronted the old man with was the state of their future; They sought to know from the old man, whether they would be better, happier and richer than their current state.

With excitement, the young boys got to the residence of the old wise man and put forward their questions; "Are these birds in our hands alive or dead and are we going to be happier and more fulfilled in our future?"

The old wise man simply took a long pause and replied: "The answer to your two questions is simply this: 'It's in your hands'"

Dear reader, like this old wise man, I am saying to you, that your life, what you make of it and the beautiful possibilities that can come out of it is entirely in your hands. Choose possibilities, choose faith, choose victory, choose abundance, choose health, choose greatness because you deserve it. Remember the words of Albert Einstein that man cannot solve a problem with the same thinking that created it. Choose wisely. Peace.
