A mother said ...

I was on a bus today when I heard an (educated) mother told her young boy that there is 'nothing she can do' as the boy pointed out to the rain outside, probably indicating that he will get wet (as they do not have raincoat or umbrella). She said that maybe, the rain will stop when they alight. Since there is nothing she can do about the rain, she told the child that they may as well 'enjoy the rainy scene'.
Somehow, what she shared (aka 'wise' words) striked a cord in me...sometimes, we tend to think or worry too much about what may probably happen etc...and end up moody or worrisome. Perhaps, we should be wiser to take heart and smile 'at the world' ...that way, we can lead and live our lives more happily.
