Once upon a time, there lived a very wise king in the state, what is now called as Madhya Pradesh. He had thought of an wonderful idea to judge his people and the courtiers.
The king had placed a heavy rock on the 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 big stone out of the way. Then a peasant came along carrying a load of vegetables. On approaching the rock, 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.
As the peasant picked up his load of vegetables, he noticed a purse lying in the road where the rock 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 rock-barrier from the roadway. The peasant learned what many others never understand.
MORAL
Every obstacle presents an opportunity to improve one's condition. So try to solve a problem than just jumping from it. The wisest lesson from the life comes from trying to solve something.
Give a shot to it, maybe even though we are not able to solve the problem, we learn something useful in life.
