In ancient times, a king had a boulder placed in a roadway .
Then he hide himself and
watched to see if anyone would remove the huge rock.
Some of the king 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 laying on 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 present an opportunity to improve your
condition.
