What stage of life are you in?

By Linda Lancashire | Published: November 1, 2017

Hello Readers,

Here is a little story I would like to share with you and this is a good lesson no matter what stage of life you are in.  You will see what I mean.

A young woman confided in her grandmother that she had been cheated on her and that she was devastated.  All that hard work and effort she had put into making her life and relationship a success had not been enough and her life was now blown apart.  She was tired of fighting and struggling and as one problem was resolved, another one blew up in her face.

Her grandmother took her to the kitchen and filled three pots up with boiling water on the cooking hob.  In the first she put in carrots, in the second eggs and in the third, ground coffee beans.  Both women sat there watching the items boil without saying a word.  After what seemed like an eternity, grandma turned to her granddaughter and asked her what she could see?  Carrots, eggs and coffee she replied.  Grandma then asked her granddaughter to examine all three items more carefully because each had faced the same adversity, boiling water and that each reacted differently.  The carrot went in hard and tough but came out soft and weak.  The fragile egg with its outer shell protected its liquid interior, but sitting in the boiling water turned harder and harder.  The coffee beans, however, changed the water.

So when facing adversity, which one are you?  Are you the carrot that seems strong, but with pain and adversity turn soft and lose your strength?  Are you the egg that starts with a malleable heart, but after a massive set back become hard and stiff?  Or are you like the coffee bean that actually changes the water, the very circumstances that brought on the pain?  When the water got hot the coffee beans released the flavour and aroma.  If you are like the coffee beans, when things reach their very worst, you get better and better because you change the situation around you.  When the hour is the darkest and the trials are the greatest, do you elevate to another level?

How do you handle adversity?  Are you the carrot, the egg or the coffee bean?

Until next week,

Love and Light,

Linda and The Lulas xx
