Building Stones.

My dad once told me of a legend. The story of the hare and the tortouise. He laid back in his bed and looked as if he had a moral in the myth to build my character. With an echoing voice he said: " The hare used to throw stones at the house of the tortouise and laughed at his slowness in building, but one day the tortouise used all those stones to build a huge house that was bigger than the hare's"

The walk to success is not for the fast and the swift only. Along the way to success we face hostile circumstances that might force us to throw in the towel or bow to the upcoming pressure. Many times we see people broken down by their friends, familly or colleagues. They ridicule the beggining of your success and await to see your fall. In every level you get you meet three people who will always throw stones at you, like the tortouise you can use those stones as stepping bridges to your next level or they can outweigh your tenacity and make you succumb to defeat. Rome was not built in one day, the hare's job was to inspire the tortouise to prove a point. every social critic in your life should not be the reason to quit, critics are always there and mostly proven wrong. Move with your goal and do not look at who says what. If you are built by the praises of men be sure to be brought down by their critisism. Someone SAID "Swallowing your pride choked no one" dont throw stones at yourself by refusing to get help from those who can help you. No one throws stones at a fruitless tree, people are sure to talk. When you do good, bad or nothing someone will offer an opinion, you are going nowhere if you are moved by peoples opinions because they are so many and different at the same time. Don't beat yourself up nor try to move quicker than someone, the secret is not in the speed but in taking all the time you need to bake a perfect cake. The microwave can warm your food but cant bake you a cake. You need patience in that department. many might grow impatient and leave, that should'nt discourage you to stop because your point to prove has increased. Now you have to show those who said you won't make it what you made off; and those who left why they shouldn't have. Someone said when they cast stones at you build a house, when they give you lemons make lemonade. I say when the hare throws stones begin to build, when your friends neglet you and your vision begin to build, in the end no house was ever built without a firm foundation! Remember the biggest building started with one stones. Ready? set? Begin :)
