Very well said, Sue. I agree with life is satisfying once we stop focusing on other's happiness and instead of focusing on ourselves. It was a difficult lesson but one that changed my life.
Oh Wow! I wasn't expecting you to put God as our business partner at the end. I was too busy getting mad at the man in the story who kept the 100%.
Great story plot, btw. You certainly zeroed in on the man's ingratitude effectively. I guess, we all experience a bit of that ingratitude at one time or another in our lives. A big Ooops!
"The world of men has forgotten the joys of silence,
the peace of solitude, which is necessary, to some extent,
for the fullness of human living.
Man cannot be happy for long
unless he is in contact with the springs of spiritual life
which are hidden in the depths of his own soul.
If man is exiled constantly from his own home,
locked out of his spiritual solitude,
he ceases to be a true person."
