One of Those Days

"There was a teacher and his student sitting under the shade of a tree near a field.
Student : Teacher, I'm confused, how can we find our true soulmate?
Teacher : (Silent for few seconds) Well, it's a pretty hard and easy question.
Student : (Thinking hard) Huh?
Teacher : Walk straight ahead to the end of that field. Walk forward but never turn back. On your way, find the most beautiful flower, pick it up then give it to me. You can only pick once.
Student : Well, ok then... wait for me...

A few minutes later...
Student : I'm back.
Teacher : Erm, I don't see you holding any beautiful flowers.
Student : On my journey, I found a few beautiful flowers, but I thought that I would find a better one, so I didn't pick it up. Before I knew it, I was at the end of the field, and I hadn't picked up any. Since you told me not to turn back, so I couldn't go back for the previous flowers.
Teacher : True, and that's how similar it is in real life.
* Flowers = People in your daily life
* Beautiful Flowers = People you are attracted too
* Grass Field = Time

In the search for our soulmate, our suitable career or the best decision, we always compare and keep looking for a better one until we run out of time, and most of the time, we can't turn back to those missed windows of opportunities.

Therefore love & grab hold of the opportunities that you have now... no more regrets
