Sharks in life

I heard a japanese story of sharks and i could not help myself relating my actions and thoughts to it...I will try to put the story in my words..
Japanese sea water near shores did not contain ample fish due to inadequate nutrients and salts. Hence their fishing ships had to venture farther away from shores for fish. The travelling time involved led the fish eaters not relishing it as they found it stale.
So the ships decided to take freezers to the sea so that fish tastes fresh.
But the japanese connosieurs still could tell the difference between the fresh fish and a day or two old caught fish.
Now the ships arranged for the tankers in which they stored the live captured fish and brought them live to the shore....
But the japanese still could tell the difference as the fish of tankers were sluggish and not as alive as the fish from sea..
So finally after much trauma the japanese ships found the solution...They left a small shark in each of the tankers. Even though the shark ate their few fish on the way but the fish which got alive on the shore were as fresh as the fish in the sea.

Hence the moral of the story is that we need to keep sharks in our lives ..sharks can be anything they can be challenges they can be risks..they can be ventures or efforts or plans which can eat your time energy ..But then this is what which keeps u alive ..which keep u on ur Feet awake ..which gets the best out of you..
All limits are set in our lives by ourselves and when sharks are behind , we forget our limits and do what we can do and achieve what we never thot we would..

I wil touch in my next post how i have been setting sharks in my life and how i feel about it..
