Ladies and gentlemen,This story will give you a beautiful message hope you love reading it.

A vegetable vendor used a white board
with the words "Fresh Vegetables Sold Here" to attract people to buy his vegetables.
A man came up to him and said
"Simply by seeing we can tell that your vegetables are so fresh, why do you need to advertise them as fresh? Rub off the word fresh."
The vendor did so
leaving behind the words " Vegetables sold here" on the board.
Another man came up and said,"we know you are selling vegetables not fruits. Why don't you wipe off the 'vegetables'?"
The vendor complied.
Letf on the board now were the two words-'sold - here'.
After while an elderly lady approached him
and said" if you are sitting in the market,you are not giving your veggies for free,are you?
Take off that ' Sold'."
The vendor removed the 'Sold' and the white board had only one word left- 'Here'.
A school boy passing by teased the vegetable seller by saying "Everyone in the world knows you are sitting here not there.
Why the here?
The vegetable seller erased the last word making the white board clean and empty.
Another person came up and said, "Only a stupid man would keep such a nice,white board empty.
why don't you write something on it to advertise your vegetables?".

You see in life
Everybody around us has an opinion to make.
Everybody around us has a suggestion to offer.
And most often with the best intentions!
But! if we end up listening to what everybody else has to say ,we may forget to do what we are inspired to do,What we are meant to do.
In the noise of others suggestions and opinions
Don't loose your voice.
Take good advice but also learn the art of
Navigating through that advice to follow
Your own journey


Thanks for your time
stay blessed 😇
