What is in your cup? - My First Post

What is in your cup?

You are holding a cup of coffee when someone comes along and bumps into you or shakes your arm, making you spill your coffee everywhere.

Why did you spill the coffee? "Well because someone bumped into me, of course!" Wrong answer. You spilled the coffee because there was coffee in your cup. Had there been tea in the cup, you would have spilled tea. Whatever is inside the cup, is what will spill out.

Therefore, when life comes along and shakes you (which WILL happen), whatever is inside you will come out. It's easy to fake it until you get rattled. So we have to ask ourselves... "what's in my cup?" When life gets tough, what spills over? Happiness, gratefulness, peace, and humility? Or anger, bitterness, harsh words jealousy, and reactions? You choose! Today let's work towards filling our cups with gratitude, forgiveness, happiness, words of affirmation for ourselves; and kindness, gentleness, and love for others.

my 2 cents,
Nice read! I had the following questions when reading this:
- How do you 'fill your cup' ? Isn't emptying what really is in your cup and filling it with those things that makes you look good, also fake? I see it as just getting better at faking, even when you are 'bumped' and caught by surprise. Thats not you.

I would say drink your coffee, if YOU don't like it, then you can throw it out and fill it with what you like. Don't worry about what spills over, worry about what you are drinking. That is living the life in your terms.
