A German man at Sinai told a very intelligent desert boy, “You are intelligent, you can become literate.” “And then?” the boy asked. “Well, then you will become a car mechanic.” “And then?” the boy repeated. “Then you’ll open a car shop.” “And then?” the boy asked again. “Then you will grow up and you will hire others to work for you, and you will have your own staff.” “In other words,” the boy said, “I will pile one headache on top of the other. Isn’t it better now that my mind is free of worries?” 

Most headaches are the result of all these thoughts we have about doing this and doing that … But if our thoughts were spiritual in nature, we would feel divine consolation and be cured of headaches.
