The other day, I brought myself a rubber ball. I threw it at a straight wall and it bounced right back. Then I threw it onto the ceiling; again I had it back in my hands. In my fourth or fifth attempt (who counted), it just disappeared into the false ceiling. My shock and annoyance at not getting my toy back, my new source of fun can’t be explained.
We all throw the ball expecting it to bounce right back at us. But what if, our ignorance misjudge where it is thrown. Ignorance has a price. Whoever said, “ignorance is bliss” is so wrong.
I had taken my rubber ball for granted. I will get that rubber ball back from my ceiling. But what gets lost thrown at the wall called ‘life’, is lost forever.
But the REAL lesson is in the ball. Not the wall.
