Learning to appreciate the bird in hand From a Parisamvada

- Dr. Jayadeva Yogendra

There is a proverb, “A bird in hand is worth two in a bush.” Things on hand are the most important things. Our ideas, dreams and plans are all changing but most of the time, we are interested in those plans. We are dreaming, imagining, and we are not in touch with reality. The job that we may have on hand is not as important as the future promotion or the new job. In all areas, this tendency is present. We forget that what is before us is the truth, the actual reality, and we hardly pay much attention to it. The required concentration or efficiency does not come.
