Spill the coffee

✿السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته✿ 

You are holding a cup of coffee when someone comes along and bumps into you, making you spill your coffee everywhere.

why did you spill the coffee? you spill the coffee because there was coffee in your cup. had there been tea in the cup, you would spilled tea.

the point is whatever is inside the cup, is what will spill out. therefore, when life comes along and shakes you (which will happen), whatever is inside you will come out. it's easy to fake it, until you get rattled.

so, we have to ask ourselves, "what's in my cup?" when life gets tough, what spills out?

joy, gratefulness, peace and humanity? or does anger, bitterness, harsh words and reactions come out?

you choose! today let's work towards filling our cups with gratitude, forgiveness, joys, words of affirmation, kindness, gentleness and love for others.
