Put three pots of water over the fire.
In the first pot put some carrot,
in the second some eggs
and in the third put some coffee beans
Boil all the three pots for 15 minutes, after that take out what you put in each pot.
After boiling, the carrot becomes soft, the egg becomes hard,
the coffee beans has disappeared,
but the water has the color and wonderful aroma of coffee.
Think About Life
Life is not always easy and comfortable.
Many times things don't happen like we wish.
People don't treat us like we hope. We work very hard and get few results.
What happens when we face difficulties?
Think About The Pots
The boiling water is like the problems of life.
We can be like the carrots.
We go in tough and strong. Finally come out soft and weak.
We get very tired. We lose hope. We give up.
There is no more fighting spirit.
We can be like the eggs.
We start with a soft and sensitive heart.
We end up very hard and unfeeling inside.
We hate others. We don't like ourselves. We become hard-hearted.
There is no warm feeling, and only bitterness.
We can be like the coffee beans.
The water does not change the coffee powder.
The coffee powder changes the water!
The water has become different because of the coffee powder.
We can be like the coffee beans.
We make something good from the difficulties we face.
We learn new things. We have new knowledge, new skills, and new abilities.
We grow in experience.
To succeed, we must try and try again.
Dun give up. Be patient. Keep pushing.
