What I Read
I once read about a middle ages warrior
Who was forced into a secret hide away.
With time on his hand, he observed an ant.
The ant continued his effort in scalling a wall.
The ant was carrying a grain of corn and made
Repeated attempts to climb the wall with the corn.
The ant failed 69 times in his most difficult pursuit.
Counting each attempt, the warrior said that the ant succeeded in his 70th attempt. Can you imagine the
Courage that the ant must have given to the warrior?
From this story, three Words come to mind.
Desire, commitment, and determination.
