A young girl comes to her father and says:
- Father, I'm tired, I have such a difficult life, such difficulties and problems, I'm always swimming against the current, I have no more strength ... what can I do?
Father instead of an answer put on the fire 3 identical pots of water, one threw the carrots, the other put the egg, and in the third poured coffee. After a while he took the carrots and the egg out of the water and poured coffee into the cup from the third pan. - What changed? He asked his daughter.
"The egg and the carrots were cooked, and the coffee dissolved in the water," she answered.
"No, my daughter, this is only a superficial view of things." Look - hard carrots, having been in boiling water, became soft and supple. The fragile and liquid egg became hard. Outwardly they did not change, they only changed their structure under the influence of the same unfavorable circumstances - boiling water. So people - strong externally can get unstuck and become weaklings where fragile and tender only harden and get stronger ...
"And coffee?" The daughter asked. - ABOUT! This is the most interesting! The coffee grains completely dissolved in the new hostile environment and changed it - turned boiling water into a magnificent fragrant drink. There are special people who do not change due to circumstances - they change the circumstances themselves and turn them into something new and beautiful, taking advantage of and knowledge from the situation ...
NIce example of practical education.
