There was a man who made his living selling balloons at a fair. He had all colors of balloons Including red, yellow, green and blue. Whenever business was slow, he would release a helium-filled balloon into the air and when the children saw it go up, they all wanted to buy one. They would come up to him, buy a balloon and his sales would go up again. He continues this process all day.
One day, the balloon man felt some tugging at his jacket. He turned around and saw a little boy who asked,” If you release a black balloon, would that also fly?” Moved by the boy’s concern, the man replied gently,
” Son, it is not the Color of the balloon, it is what inside that makes it go up.”
The same principle applies to our lives: It's what inside that counts. And what's inside us that makes us go up is our attitude.
"Human beings can alter their lives by altering their attitudes of mind"
