A story is told of Dharmaputra and Duryodana, leading characters in the epic Mahabharata.

Both were visiting their common friend and counselor Krishna, one after the other, for a consultation.

Krishna told them: “I will think about it. Meanwhile, please go around this town and spot some people about whom you can say a good word.”

Duryodana returned first. “What a horrid job you gave me, Krishna! I cannot spot a SINGLE PERSON about whom I can say a good word.”

I am sorry you have to on this wasteful errand, said Krishna.

Dharmaputa returned smiling. “What a pleasant job you gave me! I cannot find a single person about whom I CANNOT say a good word. Every one is great in one or more ways.”

We may consider doing daily this exercise – the exercising of finding someone about whom we can say a good word, a big, good word.

Some one is doing some job very well. Many people are doing some jobs very well.

If we keep our eyes open, we can find them.

And then we will have something, someone to talk about.
