Amplification : It is Useless to Cry over Split Milk

It is Useless to Cry over Split Milk

Many pleasant and unpleasant incidents happen in human life. We always become happy with a pleasant incident and unhappy with an unpleasant one. Some unpleasant incidents take place accidentally. They are neither intended nor expected. It may be due to carelessness or any situational complication. But people can scarcely take it easy. They often sharply react to it. The reaction may come as crying or shouting though it is of no effect. Crying or shouting will not reverse  the outcome. That is why the proverb: 'It is useless to cry over spilt milk'. The milk that has been spilled over a mug cannot be collected again for consumption. It is gone and wasted. It is an obviously loss but crying over the spilt milk will not help to recover the loss. We    must have the mind to bear the loss. The shock of the loss should not affect our mental composure. Moreover, spilling of a small amount of milk is not any great loss even in monetary terms, therefore grief for it need not be great as well. It is not as grave as the death of a relative or the loss of property. It is not also compared with the loss of health or friendship. Spilling of a bit of milk is a funny thing. It is  better to consume the milk still remaining in the mug and rub the trace of spilt milk with a smile. One should rather take care that it does not happen again in future. There should not be any row over a trifle. If anybody laments over a small loss, he will surely collapse in a loss of massive scale. He must realize that what is past is past forever and it is useless in lamenting over a past event which has gone entirely beyond human control.
