Daily Wisdom – Motivational Podcast – Day 770 – Inspiration: Above and Beyond
I met a man once who was blind. Basically, he couldn’t see what we can see. But he could certainly feel. He could feel and understand it, so much better than most human beings who have the vision. He was sightless. He couldn’t see the things in the way that we saw them, but he saw them in a different way. His blindness did not stop him from becoming an incredible person.
He once asked me to describe to him a color, and he said, “Describe what you see in front of you in the tree.”
As much as I tried, I couldn’t describe the color green. Because I had no idea of what it would be like if it wasn’t green.
He asked me to describe it in a way that would make sense. What it would feel like. The only way he could ask me to do this properly was to ask me to close my eyes and imagine, since it was dark now for me as well, what it would be like to see that tree.
It was an amazing experience. I remember that he led me to different paths in my life. Every time I have a challenge or a question, or at times not quite understand where I’m going, I think of this man.
This man was introduced to me by my own father, because actually my father used to walk him home every week. My father would say to me, “There’s so much to learn from this man. Even though he cannot see with his eyes, his heart, his mind, his actions, and everything speak so loud that he understands everything about the world.”
I became close to that man myself. I will never forget that, and today I am a father and a grandfather. I have been blessed with a beautiful family. When things are difficult or challenging, this is what I suggest to you: close your eyes and imagine that you can’t see what it is that you are looking for. But look for the pathway, look for the answers.
Imagine for a moment that you are being blessed. Or you’re being faced with adversity or a challenge, draw toward you the inner strength that you didn’t even know existed – and at that moment you’ll successfully accomplish your goal.
We’ve all heard stories of parents lifting cars over a small child because they were trapped underneath, and other things which are unbelievable. In a normal situation, some of these things can not happen; but when you are challenged, this is the time that you have the strength to do anything that you wish. Learn about that.
