Life lessons from a puzzle
Let us talk about the similarities between a puzzle and life. You will learn from a puzzle and see some similarities and will change your mind about life and puzzles.
When we were kids, we used to struggle while solving a puzzle; I guess that’s why our parents and teachers gave us the opportunity to deal with an object that represents life in a complex way. Now it is time to see these similarities that a puzzle has just like life:
1. It is impossible to force the pieces in where they do not belong; we end up damaging our puzzle. Here is a funny example we cannot wait for a ship in an airport. Same thing with life sometimes we cannot have everything as we want it. I always want to reach my dreams as fast as I can; I end up stressing myself and destroying my motivation.
2. Puzzles thought us to be patient; we start learning from our mistakes and think twice before putting a piece in its place. Just like life patience is a wisdom that helps growing up and make the right move to pursue our goals. In my case patience gives me the ability and the will to give my best and enjoy every step I take. For a better result.
3. Puzzles transform us to eagles, to solve the puzzle without feeling dumb. We develop our observation skill which we really depend on in our life; everyone uses their eyes to see and analyses everything. I will give you an example, a hungry eagle will fly high and position itself in a high tree to see from a big image what is going on and how it will get its prey to survive.
4. Puzzles are tricky, just like life and this misleads us. We often face mistaken identity, we look at a piece and say this is the right one we end up being wrong. And yes just like everyone I once was tricked by a person that was my friend, my mother met her and because of all her experiences; she was able to see what I could not. She told me this friend is not good, I fought with my mother and at the end she was right. We humans tend to presume things. But at the end we should learn from these misjudgments, and keep being positive.
5. Puzzles of Humanity, we all are the same yet different; we are all unique. We all have something inside of us that make us who we are just like our DNA. We should be patient, be able to observe, and learn from our mistakes to create our own world and write our stories.
Everyone let’s find our pieces and create the world we want. We all are small parts of this beautiful universe, just like stars we will take time to shine brightly and make this world a better place.
