[align=center]A group of alumni, highly established in their careers, got together to
visit their old university professor. Conversation soon turned into
complaints about stress in work and life
Offering his guests coffee, the professor went to the kitchen and returned
with a large pot of coffee and an assortment of cups - porcelain, plastic,
glass, crystal, some plain looking, some expensive, some exquisite - telling
them to help themselves to hot coffee
:When all the students had a cup of coffee in hand, the professor said
"If you noticed, all the nice looking expensive cups were taken up, leaving
behind the plain and cheap ones. It is, but normal for you to want only the
best for yourselves, that is the source of your problems and stress
What all of you really wanted was coffee, not the cup, but you consciously
went for the best cups and were eyeing each other's cups
Now if life is coffee, then the jobs, money and position in society are the
cups. They are just tools to hold Life, but the quality of Life doesn't
change. Sometimes, by concentrating only on the cup, we fail to enjoy the
coffee in it." So, don't let the cups drive you... enjoy the coffee instead
