An entire sea of water can’t sink a ship unless it gets inside the ship. Similarly the negativity of the world can’t put you down unless you allow it to get inside you.
So this topic implies that you know, when a ship is moving in an ocean, there is so much water around it, but it doesn’t sink because of water around it, but it sinks because water gets into them. So the water can get into a ship because of flooding and many other reasons, you know, it can collide with an iceberg or rock and something called grounding in shallow waters. The riders can hit the ground and cause the breakdown, poor weather conditions, there is a major reason why ships sink for all the equipment’s human intelligence, no human there because of fatty or a low number of personal human negligence, or because loss of stability is not built properly in proper maintenance, corrosion.
Just like the ship has to overcome all the difficulties to lead to a beautiful journey , similarly it depends upon the individual to face it or just surrender to the obstacles and leave the journey. It’s likely that during the journey if there is heavy swirling of wind , and rains and water level rises and its found water is getting inside the ship due to holes present in it ,it’s likely that ship will sink if proper steps are not taken wisely when the obstacles hits it is when we have to use our mental ability, thinking power , set of values we have inbuilt in ourselves ,knowledge gained to overcome the hindrances it depends on us whether we surrender or resist .
it is true that it depends on an individual who allows water to get into their ship of character. But it is also psychologically true that cognitive learning helps people to learn from nearby . To some extent the environment in society also matters, for that reason we call our family ‘the first school’
and the parents ‘the first teacher’. The society helps the children to socialize around. If their friend circle uses a drug then one can refrain but for this one needs very strong willpower from inside. It’s not possible for everyone to expect the same from all people as human nature varies from person to person.
If a person wants to do or achieve something there will be some negative forces that drag or hamper the confidence , it’s not because of external factors , it’s because you are allowing them to get into your head , you create self doubt within you.
A man is like a ship. He has his own tanks which represent his strengths and weaknesses. If he wants to become stronger, he must constantly keep his tanks filled with fuel as well as check for leaks on a regular basis. If you put fuel into your tank, you can never under-fuel your tank; and if you can never under-fuel your tank, then there can only be improvements.
we cause harm to somebody unknowingly, in terms of totally destroying them. So you can destroy their physical body, but not their ideas, their ideologies or their values or the legacy they leave behind. We talk about what are the values that one should possess, whether it’s water around them or water gets into them. So, they go on to live forever and they go on to live a meaningful life. There is a life beyond that as well, you can bring that dimension as well.
Thus, it also depends on an individual whether one is allowed to get water into his ship or not. It is so because man has reason and thus he is wise. Mahatma Gandhi rightly said that ‘open your window and allow air coming into your room, but don’t blow yourself out along with wind from the window.’
It applies in the case of nations and, anything, you know, whatever happens to an individual can be made temporary, not permanent. So because you know, it is always the people around them who will ultimately save them.
So, the message is to stay strong and not to let other people or events destroy your inner peace. Of course you don’t need to ignore whatever happens, but you need to choose what to pay attention to and how much you let it affect you.
