A Story which U can learnt from

_{A water bearer in India had 2large pots each hung
on each end of the pole which he carried across his neck . One of the pots had a crack on
it and the other one was perfect and always deliver a full portion of water @ the end of
the long walk from the stream to the master's house , the cracked pot only half full.}

_{For a full 2 yrs this went on daily , with
the bearer delivering only one and half full of water to his master house . Of course the
perfect was proud of his accomplishments , jumped to the end which it was made .
But the poor cracked pot was ashamed of its own imperfection and miserable that it was
able to accomplish half of what it had been made to do .}

_{After 2 yrs of what it perceived to be a better
failure , it spoke to the bearer one day by the stream : " I am ashamed of myself and
I wan to apologize to u . " " why ? " asked the bearer , "what r u
ashamed of ? " " I have been able , for the past two years , to deliver
only half
of my load coz' the crack in my side cause water to leak out all the way back to your
master's house . Coz' , of my flaws , u have to do all this work and u dun get full value
for your efforts ."the pot replied . The water bearer felt sorry for the old cracked pot
, and in compassion he said :" as we return to the master's house , I want u to
notice the beautiful flowers along the path ."}

_{Indeed as they went up the hill , the old cracked
pot took notice of the sun warming , the beautiful wild flowers on the side of the path and
this cheered the cracked pot up . But at the end of the trail , it still felt bad coz' it
had leaked out half of its load , and so again apologize to the bearer .The bearer said :
" did u notice that there were only flowers on your side of your path and not on
the other side ? That's because I have always known about your flaw and
I took
advantage of it . I planted flowers on your side of the path and everyday while we walk back
from the stream , you've watered them . For 2 yrs , I have been able to pick these beautiful
flowers to decorate my master's table . without u being the way u r , he would not have
this beauty to grace his house . "}

_{the moral of the story is : Each of us have our own
unique flaws , we're all cracked pots . What is important , be aware of the flaws and turn them
into advantages . ......}
