Daily Mindset

A short story.

One day, a man won a brand new car in the lottery. Thrilled, his relatives came to visit and congratulate him. They said, “Isn’t it great? You’re so lucky!”. The man replied, “Maybe”.

A few weeks passed, and suddenly the man was hit in the car by a drunk driver, leaving him in the hospital with multiple injuries. His family once again came to visit him, now saying, “That was really unfortunate.”. Again the man replied, “Maybe”.

A few more weeks passed, and as the man is recovering in the hospital, a landslide takes his home into the sea. His family comes back, saying “Aren’t you lucky you weren’t at home, and instead here at the hospital!” Again, he replied, “Maybe”.

The man’s “maybe” signifies a refusal to judge anything that may happen. Instead of judging what is, he accepts it as so, moving consciously into alignment with whatever comes his way.
