A group of former students, all very well established professionally, met to visit a former professor at the university. Soon, the conversation revolved around complaints of stress at work and in life as a whole. By offering coffee to their guests, the teacher went to the kitchen and returned with a large bule and a variety of cups, porcelain, plastic, glass, crystal, some simple, some expensive, some exquisite, telling everyone to serve. When all students were in cup in hand, the professor said: "If you look, took all the cups and pretty expensive and no longer the simple and inexpensive back." As is nothing abnormal that you want the best for you, this is the source of their problems and stress. You can be sure that the cup itself, not to add any quality coffee. In most cases, are just more expensive and, sometimes, to conceal what they are drinking. What all of you really wanted was coffee, not the cups, but chose, consciously, the best cups and then became an eye on each other's cups. Now, think about it: "life is the coffee and jobs, money and social position are the cups." They are just tools to contain and sustain the life and the type of cup we have does not define, nor change the quality of life we live. Sometimes, to focus only on the cup, still enjoy the coffee God has given us. Good filtre the coffee not the cups.
