In ancient times, a King had a boulder(big stone) placed on a roadway. Then he hid himself and watched to see if Anyone would remove the huge rock. Some of the Kings 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 for everybody. Some even secretly insulted d king... 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! Every obstacle presents an opportunity (to grow, or gain). There is a stone infront of us! Some see it as a stumbling block! We see it as a stepping stone! If we push aside distractions on our ladder of success,we shall surely move moutains. D governments of d world have stockpiled boulders on our struggles. Maybe via corrupt practices,and anti ppl policies. If we continue to blame and insult kings and queens for stones in our way,we may end up losing d gold underneath... We can as well asist d whole world.a little stone dropped in a pool of water sends waves to almost d entire water.we r all stones and when we drop on water,our ripple effect is felt by every1. When d sun rises,it does for all of us!.push any boulder placed in your path by any body and get your Gold!... D lord is your strength!
