Why did you spill the coffee?

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

"Why did you spill the coffee?"

"Well, because someone bumped into me, of course!"

Wrong answer.

You spilled the coffee because there was coffee in the cup.

If there had been tea in the cup, you would have spilled tea.

Whatever is inside the cup is what will come out.

Therefore, when life comes along and shakes you, whatever is inside you will come out. 
You might be able to fake it for a little while - only until you get over-anxious.

So, we have to ask ourselves...what's in my cup?

When life gets tough, what spills over?

Joy, gratefulness, peace and humility?

Or anger, bitterness, harsh words and reactions?

You choose!

Today - let's work towards filling our cups with gratitude, forgiveness, joy, kindness, 
gentleness and love.

                                Wishing you POSITIVITY IN YOUR CUP....
