Just read this and had to share it. Funny how these things come to you when you need them most.
A group of explorers were in the Amazon River. A storm came up and washed them out into the Atlantic. Far, far out into the ocean. They ran out of fresh water and then drifted for days, in despair. Suffering untold agony, they were near death from thirst when a ship was spotted.
As the ship grew near they signalled frantically and begged for fresh water. As the rescue ship grew near, the captain yelled back,
The explorers were not aware that the Amazon River remains fresh for more than a hundred miles out to sea. They were drifting in a body of fresh water and dying of thirst at the same time.
Many people/bloggers are like these explorers. In the midst of plenty, they are starving … themselves and others.
In a world overflowing with abundance, they are begging for opportunities. Opportunities are as plentiful as the air. They’re all around you. Let down your buckets and draw upon that ocean of ability and talent you have deep inside of you.
PS – yes, I’m still hacked about the link stingy bloggers and their scarcity thinking.
