Hello dear readers, in @VirtualVariety we love to tell, relate and share those stories that leave us teaching, that leave us learning and reflecting, that's why we created this small section, where we will share a series of #ShortStory that somehow will remain engraved in our minds and hearts, we will start with one based on the obstacles, we hope you enjoy it.
The Obstacles In Our Path
A king placed a large rock in the middle of the road, blocking the way. He then hid to see if anyone would remove it.
The wealthiest merchants of the kingdom and some passing courtiers simply surrounded the rock. Many blamed the king for not keeping the roads clear, but none did anything to remove the obstacle.
Then came a peasant carrying a load of vegetables. He set it down on the ground and tried to move the rock to the side of the road. After much pushing and fatigue, he succeeded. As he picked up his load, he found a wallet on the ground, right where the rock had been. It contained many gold coins and a note from the king, indicating that this was the reward for whoever cleared the path.
The peasant learned what the others never understood.
Without a doubt life is full of obstacles, many of them intimidate us and even make us look for other alternatives, other paths, and for many that may be fine, however, it may be that by us diverting our route simply to not deal with those obstacles, we miss a great reward.
That is why we have to understand that obstacles are not bad, for better or for worse, they help us to forge ourselves in a better way, they help us to learn differently and they give us the greatest reward in the world, experience, to know how to deal with the obstacles of the future.
« I thank these beautiful people from the bottom of my heart for their support and dedication, if you still do not read any article about them or do not know them, we invite you to do so, it will be the best decision you've made in your life »
Life is not easy, however, we will always have the opportunity to choose, to decide how we will do or what options we will take. In this story, we see how this humble peasant thought of the benefit of all, without knowing it, he acted from his heart to move this obstacle, which prevented the free passage, while the wealthy ignored the rock and only criticized the king, this peasant, took courage and he alone moved that stone that was already becoming a hindrance, and his reward apart from that bag of gold, was the satisfaction that he could finish it even though he did not have all the tools.
And that same thing happens in daily life, we see obstacles, that many ignore, simply because of laziness of not wanting to deal more with those stones in their paths, we have two options to imitate them, or try to remove them to continue advancing, to continue achieving what we want, do not allow anything or anyone to get in your way, do not look for the easiest roads, do not run ahead of time, he who runs a lot, gets tired quickly and does not reach his finish line, he who runs a lot, gets tired quickly and does not reach his finish line, he who runs a lot, gets tired quickly and does not reach his finish line.
