Face obstacles graciously for reward.
In ancient times, a King had a boulder placed on aRoadway. Then he hid himself and watched to see ifAnyone would remove the huge rock.
Some of the King's' wealthiest merchants and courtiers came byAnd simply walked around it. Many loudly blamed theKing for not keeping! The roads clear, but none did Anything about getting the stone out of the way.
Then a peasant came along carrying a load ofVegetables. Upon approaching the boulder, thePeasant laid down his burden and tried to move theStone to the side of the road.
After much pushing And straining, he finally succeeded. After thePeasant picked up his load of vegetables, he noticedA purse lying in the road where the boulder had Been.
The purse contained many gold coins and a noteFrom the King indicating that the gold was for thePerson who removed the boulder from the roadway.
The Peasant learned what many of us never understand!
Moral:-
Every obstacle presents an opportunity to improve Our condition.
