Wise Old Sage

Once upon a time in a land far away, lived a young boy, with thoughts in disarray. His mind would wander, here and there, and he found himself lost, in a constant affair. He’d worry about things, big and small, and his thoughts would run, like a wild ball. But one day, he met a wise old sage, who taught him the power, of controlling his rage.
The sage told him, to ask himself this question, "Is this thought necessary, or just a distraction?" For he who controls his thoughts, controls his life, and can overcome any obstacle, any strife. The boy listened, and began to see, the power of his thoughts, and what they could be. He learned to filter, and let go, of thoughts that didn’t serve him, and caused him woe.
He learned to love his fate, and embrace, the ups and downs, that life would trace. For he who accepts, what life brings, will find true happiness, in all things. And so the boy, grew into a man, with a mind that was strong, and a heart that could stand. He knew that his thoughts, were his greatest tool, and by controlling them, he could be truly cool.
So let this be a lesson, to all of you, that your thoughts are important, and they shape what you do. Ask yourself, is it necessary, and love your fate, for your happiness depends on it, it’s never too late!
