"You must have the easiest life in this whole world!", my friend exclaimed over our Lunch!
"Why do you think so?"
"Because, you know, you're always like .. lah di dah.. "
Before I could say anything, the waiter interrupted, "Can I get you anything else?"
"2 Eggs, sunny side up!, Thank you. ". I said.
The eggs arrive!
Oh how gorgeous they looked! two golden Suns shining in a white sky, smiling back at me!
I cut it in two halves , so each of us could eat one of those smiling little suns!
And while cutting my first bite, I said,
"You know, we are all eggs, and life is a process of cooking those eggs! No matter how hard you try, you are going to get burnt! Everybody does! It's your choice what kind of eggs you wanna be!
You can be a scrambled egg, torn apart into pieces with all the life's worries and busy routines.
Or a boiled egg, which curls up in a closed, small space, shying and hiding away from the world.
Or an omelet, which looks wrinkled all over, old and exhausted!
I like to be the Sunny Side Up Egg. Of course it gets burnt on one side, but it still stays so smooth and bright on top. Fried on one side, but radiant and cheerful on top! As if it is smiling away in all it's pain, and that's the way to live!
lah-di-dah ... !!! :) "
