thoughts of good things

some times, exceptionally good things happen to you and weirdly, people around you tell you to be wary, to be cautious and maybe even, to throw that perfectly good thing aside. at that point, what do you do?

do you A) question your assessment of the good thing; B) throw it away without second tot; C) brush off your pals' comments; D) do nothing.

Well, im sure the answer is between A and D (that is not to say it consist of B and C... i mean simply the answer would be either A or D or a combination of both). how lucky it would be if it is as simple as a multiple choice question(MCQ). whereby the answer is mutually exclusive? and best of all, non-consequential to the other questions of life?

some times good things happen out of the blue and before you question the gift, you might have to think of the sensitivity of your action. is it wise to stare a gift horse in its mouth? OF COURSE, if you rem. the story of Troy! but would you indirectly be hurting someone else's feelings? And would you also be guilty of a lack of trust? and also are you paying too much attention to what nay-sayers have to corrupt?

i am not saying that you should accept good things blindly. but i SAY, you should know who the good thing came from... eventually what it boils down to is trust. if the people of Troy thought about it... why would their enemy present them with a surrender gift of such magnitude? wont a fruit basket with a white flag suffice (from an enemy)? What i am saying (Troy story aside) is that if you know the bearer of the good thing... know that he/she is not out to get you.... and just wants to share his/her generosity, then smile! accept the good thing that came your way gracefully and pass this act of kindness onwards and outwards!
