The obstacle in our path
Author: Unknown
In ancient times, a King had a boulder placed on a
roadway. Then he hid himself and watched to see if
anyone would remove the huge rock. Some of the
king's wealthiest merchants and courtiers came by
and simply walked around it. Many loudly blamed
the King 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 of vegetables. Upon
approaching the boulder, the peasant laid down his
burden and tried to move the stone to the side of
the road. After much pushing and straining, he
finally succeeded. After the peasant picked up his
load of vegetables, he noticed a purse lying in the
road where the boulder had been. The purse
contained many gold coins and a note from the King
indicating that the gold was for the person who
removed the boulder from the roadway.
The peasant learned what many of us never
understand!
LESSON: Every obstacle presents an opportunity to
improve our condition.
