Let Go

May 20th 2007 07:30

One day, a kid was playing with a very expensive vase. He put his hand into the vase, and ups..stucked, he could not pull his hand out again. He started to cry and it drew his father's attention. His dad tried his best to pull his kid's hand out of the vase, but in vain. After several attempts, finally they thought of just breaking the expensive vase. But suddenly, the father got idea, "Now lets do it this way, we try again. Let go of your grasp inside that vase. Make your hand straight like this," the father said so while showing his palms to the kid, "Then...hopla..pull it out."

Hearing upon that, the kid whined instead which confused the father. He said, "I cant dad! I cant let go of my grasp or else the penny i am holding to right now would escape again."

As grasping tight on something which is not as valuable in exchange of one's freedom. Let go...
