Stupid Grandpa Moves Mountains
In a remote village, there lived a grandfather with his extended family. The village they lived in was located between two huge mountains. When the grandfather's family was about to go to another village, they would have to walk for days around the mountain. It was exhausting and took a lot of time. One time, the old man with his innocent and simple thoughts put forth his determination. He invited all his family to move the mountain shoulder to shoulder. On the appointed day, the grandfather's family began to dig up the mountain's slope.
Day after day was filled with work digging and digging mountainsides. Seeing this, a few days later the neighbors arrived.
One of the young men was very curious and asked the grandfather. “Grandpa and the whole extended family every day look so busy! From morning till evening, dig up the mountain slopes. Actually, what is the purpose and purpose of grandfather?” Grandpa stopped his work. “We are digging to move this mountain, Son,” the answer is steady.
“Hah, move the mountain?? Where is it possible, Cake?!” ask the young man not to believe. “Mount that big wants to be moved,” he continued.
“Grandpa is old. I believe, before the mountain can be moved, grandfather must have died first. That way, didn't grandfather do something for nothing?”
The grandfather replied loudly, “Kakek is old. But when grandfather dies, there are children who continue, there are grandchildren who will replace, and so on. As long as we have the determination, willing to work hard, full of sincerity, and consistent, he said, grandfather believes that one day, this mountain can definitely be moved. And the way of life of us all will be easier!”
The determination of the grandfather and his family is so strong, shaking the hearts of the surrounding community. So, they also flocked alternately, with equipment that was as rough, shoulder to shoulder began to come together to work digging the mountain slope.
Long story short, the hearts of the gods in heaven were finally moved when they saw the determination of the grandfather and the spirit of the villagers. Then, they agreed to help the grandfather to move the mountain.
And haaap, the hands of the gods were busy waving in cooperation. In an instant, it was a miracle!
The mountain moved and the road spread wide to wherever the villagers were about to go.
In China, the legend is known as “The Story of the Foolish Grandpa Moving Mount.” Although the story is just a legend, but the moral message about the strength of determination and earnestness is extraordinary.
We know, the progress of human civilization will not be what it is today, if the world is not inhabited by humans who have the determination like the old grandfather. Today, countless new inventions and modern technology are the spectacular works of steel-determined humans.
It is hard to imagine what the world would be like if there were no human beings with great ideals, determination, consistency, and perseverance.
The above legend teaches us that the progress of individuals, the progress of society, and the progress of a nation are strongly influenced by the power of determination.
Determination is a source of motivation that moves man towards his goals.
Determination is both wealth and capital for progress and prosperity. For those with extremely strong determination, nothing was impossible in this world.
Nothing is impossible under the sun. As long as we have determination, determination, confidence and consistency, we will be able to realize what we aspire to.
Have determination and create what is impossible becomes possible
