CRABS IN THE BUCKET

in #story5 years ago

When you put one crab in a bucket, it will claw its way out and forray into the wild and explore.

But when you put a bunch of crabs in a bucket, dont bother covering it, you can travel and come back and you'll meet all of them together.

This is so because the crab spirit is such that the crabs will not allow any of the crabs to succesfully climb out of that bucket, if any of it tries to, the others will bring out their hands/legs and pull the other one down, not because they want to go out, but so the other one doesnt go up or escape.

When one crab attemps to escape the first time, others pull it back. If it attempts a second time, others may break its claws and render it incapacitated. So, not a single of the crabs can escape as they work against one another.

Every opportunity you have to push people up, do it and do it well, it doesnt take anything from you, a candle looses nothing from lighting another candle, but some just cant stand another being lighted,

Stop trying everything to pull people down, its the crab spirit/mentality, deal with it,

Where you know a little support from you can take someone far, give it,

No one has ever gone up by pulling another down,

It doesn't matter if they will give you the accolades or not, just do what you know can help a dream come true,

Help someone interpret their dream when it is in your capacity to do so, do it,

Some cultures understand this very well, but some dont and its working against them,

I need you to take a break and look through your friends list or the people around you and ask someone - how can i help you achieve your dream?

Deal with the crab spirit,

Deal with those who try to bring it around you,

Deal with it!

God help us all.
