One day, two young men set out to climb a mountain, aiming to achieve a big goal in their lives. They looked at the huge boulders blocking the path. All the rocks they found were dirty and bruised.
hey both felt really drained. They sat on a rock by the stream to drink some water. The stream was calm. They noticed moss growing on the rocks in the water. Moss was also growing on several other rocks nearby.
They both felt really tired and needed some waer. They sat on a rock by the stream to drink some water. The stream was calm. They noticed moss growing on the rocks in the water. Moss was also growing on several other rocks nearby.
When they reached the mountain, they saw rocks rolling down from the top of the hill. These rocks were bright, smooth, and really pretty to look at, with no dirt on them.
“Look at these rocks,” said a friend, picking up a stone, “aren’t they beautiful? There’s no dirt on them, not even any moss. But we saw lots of rocks along the way getting dirty and covered in moss.”
Another friend said, “People in similar situations want to adapt. We’ve seen rocks in dusty places get dusty. We’ve seen rocks pile up in dry harbors. And the rocks that are flowing in the water look beautiful, slim and clean, we can see that.”
His friend asked, “So, what are you trying to say?”
The other friend replied, “Moss can’t grow on a rolling rock. The journey of our lives should be like rolling rocks.”
