YOUR CHOCOLATE FACTORY

CHARLIE WAS THE LUCKIEST BOY IN THE WORLD, BUT HE DID NOT KNOW IT……YET

One of the best movies I’ve seen is titled ‘Charlie and the chocolate factory’. At the start, the voice-over introduced the main character in the movie – Charlie, [a poor but well raised young boy who had nothing but the warmth and love of family] and then made a profound statement ‘Charlie is the most lucky boy in the whole world, but he did not know it YET’!

How profound! And the rest of the movie went ahead to prove that single point - that Charlie was lucky and even though he was poor and lived in a decrepit house with his parents and both paternal and maternal grandparents, yet he was the richest boy in the world, even though nothing of his present condition or reality bore any indication to that fact.

Through a streak of events, Charlie met the incredible Mr. Willie Wonka. Mr. Wonka’s factories produced the best chocolate bars in the world, and he had automated his factory so no one can steal his recipes and lived in as a recluse. He had a monopoly all over the world and that made him ‘stinkinly’ wealthy.

Charlie was one of the ten lucky children Mr. Wonka decided open up his factory to. One by one Mr. Wonka sent the children home as they disregarded the rules of the game over the days. In the end Charlie was the last man standing. And unannounced Mr. Wonka willed all his fortunes and estates to young Charlie. And so one can now understand the voice over at the start that Charlie was the luckiest young man alive but he wasn’t aware. Well in the end he became aware of it.

All he was and had in the future awaited him and were his [even though he was yet poor] as long as he stood true to his values. As long as Charlie remained Charlie nothing stood in the way of his greatness.

And this is my word to you my dear reader as you go through, life no matter the path it may take you through never lose touch of whom you are. Say a big fat ‘NO’ to conformity. I promise you, greatness awaits you at the end of it all. Never lose sight of your destination never for a moment doubt it in your heart that greatness lies ahead of you.

When you hit the rough patch on life’s path, just imagine that you are on a trip with Mr. Wonka, and unlike Charlie who was not aware of what lay ahead, you know right from the start that there is a ‘chocolate factory’ [Whatever chocolate factory mean to you] and good fortune awaiting you at the end of it all if you do not lose faith. That should be your attitude to life! So face your life and the years ahead with courage and determination and a positive attitude. Stay true to your convictions, be your best and nothing less. You are GREAT! You just haven’t manifested it yet! Yes! You can do it, and you will. God is counting on you and so are your grand children [winks]. I am counting on you too.
