A parable

There was a millionair who had a huge diamond. For an unknow reason it was damaged. There was a line on it, that could not be taken off no matter how hard he tried to remove it. Even an expert could not improve it.
Finally he found a real artist who spent a lot of time patiently making the diamond into the shape of a rose and used his skill to cut it in such a way that the line became a stem of the flower.
This is a parable. The moral is that we can turn a broken heart into strength to build a beautiful personality.

To be on top

A popular proverb says: "Humility is a step to nobility; lowliness is the ladder leading to the top."People usually aim at quick success, hoping to get to heaven by one step.

If one can't do it this way, he feels discouraged and ashamed of being inferior to other people. In fact, when a silk worm becomes a moth it has to be in a cocoon for a period of time until its wings are fully developed.

Only then can it break the cocoon and start to fly. Before we can get to the top we have to buty ourselves in knowledge until we are ready to try our wings.

Daily living management

Once I saw an artist making black dots on a piece of paper. I could not see hit reason for doing it. Later he drew a few lines connecting them and made other signs. I saw then it was a composition of music. We, in our daily living, seem to make black dots indicating our unhappy experiences. But if we arrange them in such a way as to show a purpose, we
will see the meaning of them all with beauty and harmony.
