From Another Perspective

A millionaire who was bothered by severe eye pain consultedso many physicians and was getting his treatment done. Despite consuming heavy loads of drugs and underwent injections, the ache persisted.
At last, the millionaire summoned a monk. The monk understood his problem and said that for some time he should concentrate only on green colors and not to fall his eyes on any other colors.
The millionaire got a group of painters and purchased barrels of green paint and directed that every object his eye was likely to fall on to be painted green.
When the monk came to visit him, the millionaire's servants ran with buckets of green paints and poured on him since he was in saffron robe.
The monk laughed and said "If only you had purchased a pair of green spectacles, worth just a few dollars, you could have saved these walls, trees, pots and all other articles and also saved a large share of your fortune. You cannot paint the world green."
Lets change the way we see things.
