Never Pretend What You Are Not


Once there was a crow that lived near a farm-house. The owner of the farm had kept some pigeons and he fed them with grains regularly. The crow looked at the pigeons and envied them everyday.

Deciding to share the feed, the crow painted his body like that of pigeons and joined the pigeons as one of them. Thus, he was able to enjoy the feed daily. The pigeons never suspected anything foul.

But one day, after the feed, the crow couldn't control himself and started crying. The pigeons came to know that he was not one of them. They pecked at his body so mercilessly that he started bleeding.

The crow flew away to save his life and went straight to his own brethren- the crows. But because of his painted body, they refused to accept him. So, he was forced to flee in order to save himself and became a homeless wanderer.  So, don't pose what you are not because affectation seldom works.

A monk was once asked,

"HOW can one deal with the past?"

He simply replied, " Rivers never go reverse,

SO try to live like a river.

Forget your past, focus on

your present, and keep

moving toward your future."

✅The reason injuries hurt more in cold weather is because the cold causes the body to try to conserve heat by sending more blood to the organs in the center of our body, which causes the blood vessels in other areas to constrict. This reduced blood flow leads to stiffness, which can cause discomfort and pain.

📌Additionally, cold weather can cause the barometric pressure to drop, which can lead to swelling in inflamed tissues and additional pain. To combat this, it is important to keep the head, hands, and feet warm, dress warmly, and exercise.
