Unexpected Opportunities (English )

Greatest part of fortune is that utilised the opportunity when it comes. But Problems!This is one of the many negative words that we use regularly in our daily conversation.'Problems at work, problems at home, what a life.?            ....       What is a problem?      Look at this incident, After a long wait, a young graduate got a job as a journalist. The chief editor said "Today is independence Day. A navy vessel has docked in our harbour.Navy personal are celebrating independence Day on that vessel. Cover this as a news item for our magazine.            First day, first assignment. The young man ran excitedly towards the  harbour. In the evening, while all the reporters gathered in the office to file their reports, the new journalist was sitting there without writing anything.. One of his colleages asked him gently"Why aren't you writing your reports?"  It is all my luck. The very first day, the editor sent me to cover independence Day celebrations on Nevy vessel.There were no celebration on that vessel. There was a big hole in that vessel. They were busy repairing the vessel. How on earth could they celebrate independence Day? said the new journalist. His colleague was excited "My God!That news should come on first page."He said and ran out to collect further information on that mishap. The very information that made the new Journalist wilt in sorrow because he   viewd it as a "problem' was a golden opportunity for the other to prove his talent.                    .       Life is not something that happens according to a planned agenda. It is a procession of unexpected opportunities.                  The Buddha was walking through a forest. The woodcutters who were cutting wood nearby ran to him. and said, stop, please stop!There is a terrible demon in the forest, a canibal. After killing the person, he. cut off the thumb and keeps it safe. So far he has collected 999 thumbs. He needs just one more to make it 1000.Then he plans to string them all up and wear them around his neck. So please do not go to forest. If you go, it would be s big problem for you.       To that, the Buddha replied "I would get  no better opportunity than this."and entered deep into the forest. As expected, the demon felled a huge branch of a banyan tree and appeared in front of the Buddha in a cloud of dust. But the Buddha wasn't frightened', he stood strong, firm and साइड "If killing me gives you pleasure, please do so, I accept the fact that you are really strong. But one thing, though you have the strength to break a branch of tree, you can never attach it back to that tree. You know the art of destroying, i know the art of joining" More than his words, the truth and compassion touched the demon deeply. After that, he became the Buddha's disciple. He was Angulimal. The Demon was not a "problem' for the Buddha:instead it was an opportunity to protect the villagers from further misery.  How many of today's opportunities will you recognise?
