The Stone On the Road
One
day a farmer, walking down the street in a small town came across a large stone
in the middle of his path. The farmer complained: "Who could be so
careless as to leave such a big stone on the road? Why does someone not remove it?"
He went away complaining.
The
next day, the same thing happened with a milkman. He too went away grumbling
but left the stone as it was.
Then
one day, a student came across the stone. Worried that someone may fall over it
and hurt himself, he decided to push it aside. He pushed long and hard all by
himself and eventually managed to remove the stone from the path. He came back
and noticed a piece of paper where the stone was kept.
He
picked the paper and opened it. Inside was written, "You are the true
wealth of this nation."
There
are two kinds of people
Talkers
and doers.
Talkers
merely talk, while doers do.
The moral of this story, is that if you don't want to get
involved you have no right to criticize. Become the change you wish to see in
this world.
Service
to society is the rent we pay for the space we occupy on this earth
