Here's what I read in an online newspaper. I just loved the thought of breaking out of monotony.
Once a prison guard said to his inmates:
"You must be happy in your cells to have so much freedom."
All inmates were upset. He replied:
"Oh, you forgot that you have all the time in the world, you are fed, clothed, and housed. But I have to go back home to clean up the house, make supper, buy clothes, and put the kids to bed."
Hearing this, the inmates felt a lot better.
Lessons to be Learned:
One should realize that there are always different ways to perceive reality. Life is about making choices. You choose how you feel and look at things around you. I strongly believe in this :)
