i heard about a story.
once upon a time, there was a small elephant. the small elephant was tied at the leg since young with a metal chain. everyday the small elephant tried to escape my pulling the metal chain as hard as he can. but he couldn’t.
days by days. time past. slowly, the small elephant believed that it is impossible to break the metal chain. so why not stop trying and take the meals given with no worries?
Since then, the elephant never try to break the chain even until he is big enough to break it.
what does this story tell us?
try everything and never give up? NO.
even if the elephant tries to break the chain till he succeeded. he will end up starve to death because he had lost his ability to feed himself.
he is fated to be the tied elephant. well protected.
