In ancient times there was a king ordered his men to put a rock on the roadway his men placed a huge rock on a
roadway. He then hid in the bushes and watched to see if anyone would move the
rock out of the way. Some of the King’s wealthiest merchants and courtiers
passed by and simply walked around it. Many blame the king for not keeping the
roads clear, but none of them did anything about getting the stone removed.
And so it happened that one day a peasant came along carrying vegetables upon approaching the rock the Peasant laid down his burden and tried to push the rock out of the way. After much pushing and straining he finally managed. After the peasant went back to pick up his vegetables he noticed the purse lying in the road where the rock had been. The purse contained many gold coins and a note from the King explaining that the gold was for the person who removed the rock from the road.
When we see in life every obstacle that we come across gives
us an opportunity. An opportunity to improve our circumstances and while the
lazy complains, others will create opportunities through their kind hearts,
generosity and willingness to get things done. So see every problem as an
opportunity and a chance to become better and to grow.
