More often than not, when I get ready to put my earphones on,
I find that the cord is all tangled up. Sometimes it’s really bad (a total mess it takes me several minutes to loosen up), other times it’s not as bad. This never
fails to make me think. As I “know” for sure that I am always careful with the
cord when I put the earphones away, where does this entanglement come from? A comparison with life is inevitable. We are “careful” to set our cards
right, but we lose the game. We are sure we have behaved well, said the right
things, done the right deeds, but the result is the opposite of what we
expected. So, what’s going on here? Is there a puppeteer behind the scenes who
has fun messing everything up? Or is it us who ONLY believe we are doing
everything right, while WE are the ones who, unknowingly, do the “messing up”?
