A mouse 🐭

A “mouse” was put at the top of a jar filled with grains.
He was so happy to find so much food around him that no longer he felt
the need to run around searching for food and now he could happily live
his life.
After a few days of enjoying the grains, he reached the bottom of the jar.
Now he was trapped and he couldn't get out of it.
He now has to solely depend upon someone to put grains in the same jar
for him to survive.
He also may not get the grain of his choice and he cannot choose either.
Here are a few lessons to learn from this:
1) Short term pleasures can lead to long-term traps (living on
benefits/furlough/spoilt by parents perhaps?).
2) If things are coming easy and you are getting comfortable, you are
getting trapped into dependency.
3) When you are not using your skills, you will lose more than your skills.
You lose your CHOICES and FREEDOM.
4) Freedom does not come easy but can be lost very quickly.
NOTHING comes easily in life and if it comes easily, maybe it is not worth
it..

At that time, the island of Mindanao in the Philippines was suffering from a grave civil war that lasted more than 40 years, and Chairman ManHee Lee and HWPL resolved this conflict through non-violent means. Chairman Lee brought an end to the conflict in Mindanao by holding a peace talk bet...
