Heartfulness story-11

Once a young lady was driving a car alongside her father who was seated on the passenger seat. Just after a few miles, they encountered a storm.

The girl asked her father anxiously, “What should I do now??”

“Keep driving,” the father replied very calmly.

The girl did just as was told. After driving a few meters, she observed the other cars starting to pull aside as the storm was getting worse.

The girl grew agitated at the sight of this and asked her father again, “Should I pull over too?”

The father replied, “No, just keep driving.” Hence, the girl kept at it.

But then, after covering some more distance, she saw that most of the cars were pulling over.

Seeing this, she slowed down her car and said to her father, “Father, I think I should also pull over now as I'm unable to see things clearly because of the dust. The storm ahead looks terrible and everyone else is also pulling over.”

But her father still asked her to keep driving.

As she drove for some more time, the storm reached its peak. Now, it became even more difficult for her to see and drive forward. She felt like stopping the car to pull over to some safe place, but she continued to drive through the storm as her father had asked her to do so.

She kept driving, even through the storm. Soon, the situation got better and things were now clearer than before.

After a few miles' drive, they were finally out of the storm, to a safer place.

Her father said, “Dear, now you can pull over and get out of the car.”

The girl questioned, “But why now? We are out of the storm!”

Her father smiled and answered, “When you get out, you'll see all those people who gave up in between and hence, are still struggling in the storm. But since you didn't give up and kept moving forward, your storm is over now."

A powerful will made at the very first step and maintained all through, shall never fail to achieve complete success.

During trying times, even the strongest of the people give up. But if we just hang in there and keep moving forward at our own pace, despite all the challenges that hurdle our way, we are sure to come out flying through those hard times.

Believe in yourself and find a way forward, no matter what the challenge - Daaji
