Story: Girl and Seeds
Hello Steemians, this time I will give a story, I hope you will like it.
There was a young girl who was determined to help her poor and underdeveloped village. she diligently made every effort to make money to buy children's books and school supplies there. No matter how great the effort is, but it still feels like it's lacking.
Until one day, she got an appointment to meet a rich man in the city, in the hope that the rich master would contribute money. In the meeting, the young girl told of the situation of her village and educational facilities which were far from adequate and asked for help for them.
Bored and unfriendly, rich master commented casually, "Young girl. You have the wrong address. Here is not a charity that gives free donations. If indeed your village children can't go to school, that's their fate. Why should I help? " He did not believe in the sincerity of the young girl in front of him.
With a look of helplessness and despair, the girl knew, her attempt had failed. But before leaving, she tried to the last one, "Sir, if possible, can I borrow a bag of superior seeds of peanuts that you have produced so far? Suppose that today you have helped us and I promise i will not disturb you again."
Surprised and wanting to immediately cast out the girl away, without many words, he immediately gave a bag of requested peanut seeds.
Returning from there, the girl began the movement of planting peanut seeds on poor people's land, with the determination of one bag of peanut seeds, she want to produce as many beans as they could grow there.
Her plan was successful and a few moments after harvest.
The girl came back to the rich man, "Sir, I came here with the aim of returning a bag of peanut seeds that I borrowed at that time."
Then the girl told the success they had gotten, from a bag of bean seeds to that much. The rich master was impressed by the results of the effort and sincerity of the young girl and was willing to come to the village to review.
He was very impressed and later donated agricultural equipment, taught them how to do good farming, and bought all the crops produced by the village.
Suddenly life in the village changed completely. They are able to make money, live more prosperously, and are able to build schools for the education of their children. The girl's struggle finally helped the villagers! There is no futile effort!
Oke Steemians, life in this world is very realistic. When we are weak, backward, fail, many people mock us. When we want to start a business or there are new ideas that we want to do, there are people who do not want to help but are disparaging, insulting and looking at one eye. Yes, don't need to be angry, revenge or hate. It's better to prepare everything to the fullest and struggle for success. After there is evidence of a success, people will believe and acknowledge us.
But don't be surprised, when we succeed there are also people who wait when we fall. So the most important thing is our attitude. When we fail and are underestimated, we not angry. When we are successful, we don't forget ourselves. Although success remains humble and modest. Don't forget, staying optimistic creates greater success.
