The Cream Rises To The Top
When business got slow, a vendor selling balloons on a beach in India would release one of his balloons into the air. Children playing on the beach for miles on either direction would see the brightly colored balloon in the air and be drawn to buy balloons.
One afternoon, a dark-skinned young boy came up to the vendor and noticed that balloons of all colors were bought, but with one exception.
"Do people not like the black balloons because they do not rise?" he inquired earnestly.
The vendor looked down at the boy's sad eyes and replied without skipping a beat: "Absolutely not. Balloons do not rise or sink, fly or settle. It is what is inside them that makes the difference. It is the same with human beings. Whether someone soars in life has little to do with appearances and everything to do with what's inside. It's the inside that counts."
When you are looking to foster positive, upwards momentum and sustained growth in your life, stop looking to fix the external.
And remember that the cream that is intrinsic to the dairy is what rises to the top - regardless of whether it is found in yogurt, plain milk, chocolate milk, etc.
Be the cream.
