The Broken Vase

“How did you become so fearless?”

“Do you have a vase? Think you have one. Antique Beautiful Expensive Vase. But you are bored with it and you want to do something new with it. But it is not easy. Why? Because you fear losing it. Because you are afraid that if something happens to your vase? But suppose someday it breaks. Then you will have only broken pieces of it. Then it will not look so beautiful. It will be nothing more than just a scrap. Then you will have no fear of doing anything with it as it is useless but you can recreate it with its broken pieces. And perhaps the new one will look more beautiful than the old one.

So that broken vase was me. And still am. Scrap and waste. I have no fear of losing anything because I have nothing to lose. But I know that I can rebuild myself from broken pieces. I can make myself more beautiful and stronger than before. And In this way I became fearless.”

From the example of the vase, I want to tell you that there are two types of people in this world. People who have never failed in something are afraid of doing something new. But those who failed at some point in their lives eventually become fearless.

  1. Such an motivating thought is expressed with utmost simplicity in your words. The example of the vase to give an insight about life is appreciable. Very beautiful writing Anushree!
    Especially the lines – ‘But I know that I can rebuild myself from broken pieces. I can make myself more beautiful and stronger than before. And In this way I became fearless.’

  2. Beautifully illustrated with an example of vase, I guess the process of recreating ourselves with true commitnents results into a better outcomes as we were earlier in past & the fear of failure dissolves because rebuilding always begins from scrap.
    Keep writing!!📝👍
