Useful word


I watched this movie, and a scene showed a boy of about age 8, picking up his dad's shaving stick and trying it out on his chin as he had always seen his dad do, but unfortunately, I heard him scream as the blade tore his skin and he bled badly.
At this point it just struck my mind that there are certain things that could bless you tomorrow that can harm you today if used too early.
At age 8 it hurt him (tore his skin) but at age 18 it would help him (shave his beads).
Again I noticed, he had tried to do it because he had seen his dad do same.
Then I learnt this vital lesson that we must be careful what we try to do because we see others doing so, or what we wish to have because others have them.
What works for others may not work for you and when it works for them may not be when it would work for you.
Remember some children walk at 8months, some at 9, some even after a year...but they all work.
We must learn to wait for our time and get the value for our patience in waiting.
