Ripple Effect

There is a man. He lives in a village. He has one stallion. He uses it for work. One day the horse runs away. Everyone in the village comes to him and says “Oh, we are so sorry for you. Now you are so poor”. And the man says ”Maybe. Maybe not”.

The next day the horse returns and brings 20 mares with it. All the people in the village say ”Praise God. You are the richest man in the village. You must be so happy”. And the man says ”Maybe. Maybe not”.

The next day his son rides the stallion, and he falls from it. He is paralyzed. And all people in the village come and say ”We are so so sorry. You are the poorest man now. It’s a horrible thing that happened to your son”. And the man says ”Maybe. Maybe not”.

The next day a war breaks out, and all children from the village are called to go to war. But his son stays behind because he is paralyzed. People in the village say ” You must be so happy. You got to keep your son, and all our sons had to go to war”. And the man says ”Maybe. Maybe not”.

Life is guiding us to something...

The PostSecret Project

"There are 2 kinds of secrets: those we keep from others, and the ones we hide from ourselves."



Thoughtfull video / Project about secrets and lives. The song soundtrack "Breathe Me" from Sia is simply amazing.

"Be my friend
Hold me, wrap me up
Unfold me
I am small
and needy
Warm me up
And breathe me"

Found out about the video on supergab's blog.

Ezekiel by Jules Winnfield

The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides
By the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men.
Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will,
Shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness,
For he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children.
And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger
Those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers.
And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon you.
