Once upon a time. There was a small family. She was going through a very recent family situation. The family was struggling all the time. By solving one problem, another problem was lagging behind.

Tired of these struggles, a young child in the family complained to his father, “Now I am tired of these blows of life. Tired of the everyday struggle. My own future appears to be in darkness."

His father was a professional cook. He brought the boy to the kitchen. He filled three pitchers with water and placed all three on the stove.

When water is supplied to all three poesiars, it supplies water to one poesiar like a potato, to the second poesiar like an egg and to the third poesiar. All three Tokyos were left to fall.

The son was waiting impatiently, wondering what his father was doing. After 20 minutes he switched off the burner.

He took the potatoes out of the pot and placed them in a bowl. He took out the eggs and placed them in a bowl. Then he took out the coffee and placed it in a cup.

Turning towards the boy he asked, “Son, what are you looking at?”

“Potatoes, eggs and coffee,” he replied quickly.

“Look closely and touch the potato.”

The boy touched and said that the potatoes had become soft.

Then he asked the boy to take an egg and break it. After breaking the shell, he looked at the hard-boiled egg.

Finally, he asked the boy to have coffee. Its pleasant aroma brought a smile on his face.

“Dad, what does this mean?” The boy asked.

Then the father explained that potatoes, eggs and coffee beans all three had to face the same adversity i.e. boiling water. And each one reacted differently. The potato was strong, hard, but in boiling water, it became soft and weak.

The egg was delicate, with its interior protected by a thin outer shell. The inside of the egg became hard in that boiled water.

Similarly, coffee beans were also different. After coming in contact with boiling water, they transformed the water and made great coffee.

He asked his son, “What are you like? When adversity knocks at your door, how do you respond? Are you a potato or an egg or coffee beans?”

Lesson

There are new things happening around us everyday in life, but the only thing that really matters is how you react to it and what benefit you get from it. Embrace all the changes in life and face all the upcoming struggles with positivity.
