THE STORY OF TWO BOTTLES

So, today, I was to fill two empty bottles with water. A small bottle and a large one. I picked my container, filled it with a large amount of water and started filling the bottles. I started with the small bottle, and within few seconds it was already filled up. Soon, it was time to fill the second bottle. I began to fill it with the water I had left in the container I was filling from, sooner than expected, I exhausted the water in the container. I filled the container again with water that I felt would fill the amount of space left in the large bottle I was filling. Surprisingly, it still didn't fill the bottle, and within a little amount of time the container was empty again. Then I decided to refill the container again with more amount of water that I felt would be enough this time to fill up my bottle. I did, and this time, the bottle was filled to it's brim. I sat down to think about the whole scenario, then I related it to we humans and LIFE. Sometimes, few of us tend to experience a delay in some certain areas of our lives. Just like the large bottle, it takes time for us to get or achieve some things. We fail numerous times and it seems like it's not going to work out, especially when our mates are getting it as if they are playing cards and winning easily. Just like the first bottle I filled, which got filled up in an instant, they too got everything they wanted. Afterwards, I thought to myself that, the first bottle might have been quickly filled up because it was a small bottle. Sooner rather than later, the water inside it will finish. However, the second bottle that took time to get filled was a large one and although it took time to get filled up, it eventually did fill up! Now, the Good news in this write-up is that truly, everything or some things may seem like it won't work, it may all look like it's never going to happen but my dear, never forget the story of the bottles. The large bottle took time to get filled, but it eventually did fill up. Also remember that because it was a LARGE bottle, when it eventually gets filled up, it would be enough for multitudes. Sweet, you are a LARGE VESSEL and you might not quickly get to that certain place or get that certain thing you've always wanted but believe me, just like that large bottle that eventually got filled, You will eventually get to that place and get that thing you've always wanted, and it's definitely going to last you a lifetime. Why? Because, YOU ARE A LARGE VESSEL! YOU'VE GOT SOMETHING BIG IN THERE!! AND THOUGH, IT MAY SEEM HARD AND NOT COME EASILY BUT, YES, JUST SO YOU KNOW, YOU WILL EVENTUALLY GET FILLED, GET EVERYTHING YOU'VE ALWAYS WANTED, AT IT'S DUE TIME. AND, YOU KNOW WHAT THE GOOD NEWS IS AGAIN!? IT WOULD BE SUFFICIENT FOR YOU AND LAST YOU A LIFE TIME.
