INSPIRATIONAL STORY

A woman dreamt she walked into a brand new shop in the marketplace
and to her surprise, found God behind the counter.
"What do you sell here?" she asked
"Everything your heart desires." said God.
Hardly daring to believe what she is hearing,
the woman decided to ask for the
best things a human being could wish for:
"I want peace of mind and love and happiness
and wisdom and freedom from fear." she said
Then as an afterthought, she added.
"not just for me, for everyone on earth."
God smiled, "I think you've got me wrong, my dear.
We don't sell fruits here. Only seeds."

(Anthony de Mello. sj)
