Once upon a
time, there was a merchant who was a leader of caravan carrying 500 carts to
sell in abroad. One day, the caravan stopped right in the middle of desert,
lacked of food and water. The merchant ordered his men to dig the hole.
Perhaps, middle of the desert could possibly have some pond. Those men went to
several ways, dug the hole and found nothing.
The
merchant kept walking until he found a small bunch of grass. He thought, if the
grass can survive, below this must be some water. So he ordered his men to dig,
they were kept digging until they found one big stone across. The merchant told
them to try to drill that rock; maybe next the rock is a big pond.
No one
believed him. But since the merchant told them they kept digging the rock for
whole one day. Finally, the rock went thru the bottom and they could see mouth
of a spring. Fresh and pure water went out and everyone was so happy, they
drank and had a shower. Eventually, they could survive from desert crisis.
This story
teaches that: “If you find any obstacle, think like the merchant. Perhaps,
behind the obstacle will mean that success is waiting for you.”
