College, Stories, and Obstacles

Hello readers! I just finish my exam its was really great. I thought I can't make it but turned out that Event Management Subject was really easy for me...Nngggeeh

Week of examination really kick my butt off and its worth of studying 6 hour for that..maybe? College life really are challenging, full of episode, drama and all but that's life, right? Well from my own point of view, Malaysian hype of college life was something I'm not going to look forward to growing up. Hmm plain life I guest. Some of my friend said that college life was a place to grow spiritually and connect relationally....Hmmm? Think again!

Here's a story in this one article "The Obstacles In Our Path". Okay I found out this story was quite interesting. What? I love stories....well few maybe. Okay so the stories goes like this.In ancient times, a King had a boulder placed on a roadway. Then he hid himself and watched to see if anyone would remove the huge rock. Some of the king's wealthiest merchants and courtiers came by and simply walked around it. Many loudly blamed the King for not keeping the roads clear, but none did anything about getting the stone out of the way.

Then a peasant came along carrying a load of vegetables. Upon approaching the boulder, the peasant laid down his burden and tried to move the stone to the side of the road. After much pushing and straining, he finally succeeded. After the peasant picked up his load of vegetables, he noticed a purse lying in the road where the boulder had been. The purse contained many gold coins and a note from the King indicating that the gold was for the person who removed the boulder from the roadway. The peasant learned what many of us never understand - "Every obstacle presents an opportunity to improve our condition."

Well this story kinda have a big impact for me but on second thought life always have obstacles before you and just the matter on how you can handle it.

Okay I'll have to stop right now and hit for lunch ^_^ Good day readers!!
