The young man then continued his father's business as a carpenter, and since he was a child often helping his father in assessing wood, he gained the ability to recognize and appraise wood well.
One day, an elderly man came to the young man to look for the wood that could be carved into a statue. The young man quickly provided the best wood for sculpture.
Who would have thought, the parent was in fact a famous sculptor in the village, and since the wood obtained from the young man was very good, he became a subscriber who continued to buy wood from the youth.
Eventually, the young man became close to the sculptor, and he decided to learn to sculpt from the sculptor. However, as he is about to begin to learn to sculpt, the sculptor gives a discourse, "If you want to be the best sculptor, be like water droplets that are capable of punching rocks, focus on what you master then you can become a success."
Hearing that advice, the young man realized that the discourse of the sculptor and his parents had been the guiding of success, which, although he was a fool and backward, with focus and hard work, he eventually became a respected sculptor all over the world.*
A story that can be a learning for all of us, proving that no matter how hard a rock is, droplets can conquer it. This is an analogy where the world is full of life tests that are so hard, but can still be defeated by the determination and focus of the struggle.
