The Thing About - Play

Play is not about any game or activity. 

Play, is a state of mind that brings new energy to the tasks at hand. 

It opens, refreshes and re-vitalizes the mind.  Play, re-ignites creative imagination and brings forth new perspectives at work.

So, lets play!

Treasures For A Lifetime

Sing like there’s nobody listening, be glad of life, a chance to live, to love, to play and to look up at the stars.

Here’s a parable I came across in a book recently… Take a moment, enjoy!

Eckhart Tolle, in The Power of Now, wrote:

———————————————————————————————————

A beggar had been sitting at the side of a road for thirty years. One day, a stranger walked by. “Spare some change?,” mumbled the beggar, mechanically holding out his old baseball cap.

“I have nothing to give you,” said the stranger.

Then he asked, “What’s that you are sitting on?”

“Nothing,” replied the beggar. “Just an old box. I have been sitting on it for as long as I can remember.”

“Ever looked inside?” asked the stranger. “No,” said the beggar. “What’s the point? There’s nothing in there.”

“Have a look inside,” insisted the stranger.

The beggar managed to pry open the lid. With astonishment, disbelief and elation, he saw that the box was filled with gold.

———————————————————————————————————

To look to the outside for solution, is to miss the greatness you have within.

What’s in your box? Have a look inside today.
