[00:00.52]5.Love of a Lifetime 1


[00:04.98]Once upon a time a teacher and his student lay down under the big tree near the big grass area.


[00:11.30]Then suddenly the student asked the teacher.


[00:14.89]“Teacher, I’m confused 2, how do we find our soul mate 3?


[00:19.25]Can you please help me?”


[00:20.99]Silent for a few seconds, the teacher then answered, “Well, it’s a pretty hard and an easy question.”


[00:28.72]The teacher continued, “Look that way, there is a lot of grass, why don’t you walk there?


[00:36.56]Please don’t walk backwards 4, just walk straight ahead.


[00:40.05]On your way, try to find a blade 5 of beautiful grass and pick it up and then give it to me. But just one.”


[00:48.54]The student said, “Well, OK then... wait for me...” and walked straight ahead to the grassy 6 field.


[00:57.14]A few minutes later the student came back.


[00:59.64]The teacher asked, “Well, I don’t see a beautiful blade of grass in your hand.”


[01:05.31]The student said, “On my journey, I found quite a few beautiful blade of grass,


[01:10.98]but I thought that I would find a better one, so I didn’t pick it.


[01:15.22]But I didn’t realize that I was at the end of the field, and I hadn’t picked any because you told me not to go back, so I didn’t go back.”


[01:23.71]The teacher said, “That’s what will happen in real life.”


[01:27.98]What is the message of this story?


[01:30.71]In the story, grass is the people around you, the beautiful blade of grass is the people that attract you and the grassy field is time.


[01:39.46]In looking for your soul mate, please don’t always compare and hope that there will be a better one.


[01:45.91]By doing that, you’ll waste your lifetime, cause remember “Time Never Goes Back”.
