Positive stress and the art of gratitude

Probably everyone heard about negative and positive stress. The positive one is the one that help our growth. But where is that red thin line that will make the difference between the good one and the bad one? In the end, it is just our perception and previous experience that will help us to reach to this conclusion. And we got another curious side effect, in the face of adversity we found ourselves able to do much more than we where thinking we could. In conclusion, we should be gratefull for every problem that we meet in our way. Because every problem has a gift hidden in the solving process. And often we got the problems because we need their gifts. Be glad of having them, because this is how we grow faster.

The breeze

Long long time ago, maybe in another life, I was walking on the streets of Cairo. It was a hot summer afternoon, and everything was still, no wind, nothing moving around. But all at once, I started to feel a refreshing soft breeze. I was looking around and to my surprise, I've seen an young man, and behind him a wonderful angel, his wings moving softly.
Later I ask my teacher why an angel spent his precious time just to take care to not be hot around that person. My master said:
- You know, an angelic gift, no matter how small, come when is needed the most.
