Once upon a time, there was a king who ruled a prosperous country. One day, he went for a trip to some distant areas of his country. When he was back to his palace, he complained that his feet were very painful, because it was the first time that he went for such a long trip, and the road that he went through was very rough and stony. He then ordered his people to cover every road of the entire country with leather. Definitely, this would need thousands of cows' skin, and would cost a huge amount of money.
Then one of his wise servant dared himself to tell the king, "why do you have to spend that unnecessary amount of money? Why don't you just cut a little piece of leather to cover your feet?"
The king was surprised, but he later agreed to his suggestion, to make a "shoe" for himself.
If there was a question like, "What's the moral of the story?" posed to you, the model answer wld probably be: "To make this world a happy place to live, we should first change ourselves - our heart; our mind, our perspectives, and not the world."
What about you? Will your answer be the same? Will you agree strongly to the above statement? Well, i don't agree. Let me first tell you a joke. Someone who claims a strong love for you, can actually don't recognise your voice when you call. *laugh laugh laugh* ok, that's hilarious.
What will your reaction be when you face this problem? Are you still going to change yourself by perhaps, start calling that person everyday to ensure that this person whom u love will recognise your voice. You are the one who discovered the treasure, one more chest to open and you're there. Are you going to back up only now? What will happen to the chest then? Do i have to keep telling you that i miss you, and beg you to call me? The last time i saw you was on 17 april. The last time i realli heard you was on 20 april. The date today is 1 may, which is 5 more days to the first month. Well, if u don't even bother then i really have nothing to say. It's all my fault for living in my own fantasy and being naive.
