Why Keep An Open Mind

Why Keep An Open Mind

.Why Keep An Open Mind?
There are so many people in their little pond that they don’t see or want to see the world outside of their comfort zone.
Their mind is closed to the ideas outside and whatever they don’t know, see or comprehend does not exist.
If you have never tried, experienced, or ventured into something, you cannot close your mind from a possibility of it.
I always encourage people to face their fears, try new things, and explore new possibilities

Why?

The adventure may make your mind grow and you may become a better person for that.

Here is a story about the things that you will miss, if you don’t have an open mind and why keep an open mind is necessary

Once upon a time there was a fish. And merely because it was a fish, it had breathed all its life in the liquid and comprehended nothing whatever concerning anything else but water. And one day as it paddled about in the lake where all its days had been consumed, it occurred to coincide with a turtle of its acquaintance who had just come back from a little journey on the land.
“Good day, Mr. Turtle!” said the fish. “It’s been long  you haven’t seen here? Where have you been?”
“Yes! I was on a trip on a land that was dry.” Replied the turtle.
“On dry land!” exclaimed the fish. “What do you mean by on dry land? There is no dry land. I had never seen such a thing. Dryland is nothing.”
YOOPS!,” spoke the turtle amiably.” Sadly, if you expect to assume so, needless to say, you should; no one can prevent you. But that’s where I’ve been, all the same.”
“Oh, come,” said the fish. “Try to talk sense. Just tell me now what is this land of yours like? Is it all wet?”
“No, it is not wet,” said the turtle.
“Is it nice and fresh and cool?” asked the fish.
“Nopes, it’s not great, refreshing, and brilliant.” responded the turtle.
“Does it appear lucid and pure, so that light can come inside this?”
“No, it is not clear. Light cannot come through it.”
“Is it smooth and flexible, that I can run my blades on in it and drive my nostrils through it?”
“No, it is not soft and yielding. You could not swim in it.”
“Does it move or flow in streams?”
“No, it neither moves nor flows in streams.”
“Does it ever climb up into ripples then, with white lather in them?” inquired the fish, anxious at here-string of noes.
“No!” replied the turtle, truthfully. “It never rises up into waves that I have seen.”
“There now,” exclaimed the fish triumphantly. “Didn’t I tell you that this land of yours was just nothing? I have just asked, and you have answered me that it is neither wet nor cool, not clear nor soft and that it does not flow in streams nor rise up into waves. And if it isn’t a single one of these things what else is it but nothing? Don’t tell me.”
“Okie Dokie”, said the turtle, “If you want to keep going like this and imagining thinking that dry land is zero, I reckon you must just keep on imagining so. But anyone who has an idea and the difference between water and land would say you were just a goofy fish, for you think that anything you have never known is nothing just because you have never known it.”
And after making all those important statements, the turtle aimed away and, leaving the fish behind in its little pond of water, set out on another journey over the dry land that was nothing.
