The Three Questions

Today, I was tired and bored yet happy. How could I feel all that feelings in one day..haha!

Maybe I was tired because I have to wake up early. Somehow I got a special request from a student to conduct my craft class on weekday instead on weekend like usual.

And I was bored because most of my friends are on leave due to Agong coronation so I have no one to chat with.

Yet I am happy since hubby could eat my home-cooked nasi ayam (again) today.

So what is there all about the headline of my entry this time.

I was searching for new things to ponder tonight and found one story.

It’s not a short story thus the reason I did not copy and paste it here.

So if you want to know what is the Three Questions – by Leo Tolstoy, go and read at the site.

If you don’t have the time to read the whole story, let me give you the gist here.

The three questions are these:

What is the best time to do each thing? Who are the most important people to work with? What is the most important thing to do at all times?

And the wise answer is:

Remember that there is only one important time and is Now. The present moment is the only time over which we have dominion.

The most important person is always the person with whom you are, who is right before you, for who knows if you will have dealings with any other person in the future.

The most important pursuit is making that person, the one standing at you side, happy, for that alone is the pursuit of life.

I’m glad that I don’t need to be a hermit to know that..haha!
