第九十一章 愚公移山(2 / 2)

A small boy with a widowed mother came to their help,while an old man named“Wise Old Man”took notice of all this。The“Wise Old Man”stated that they were all trying in vain,with all his young and old members。The Foolish Old Man was not easy to get over。He rested his shoulder-pole and argued with him。The Foolish Old Man said,“You old muddle-head,you only know that under your nose,you must remember that if I die my son lives。My sons and grandsons will go on for ever。Though this mountain is very high,it can be removed little by little。”

The Foolish Old Man totally neglected the Wise Old Man's discouraging words,and kept on digging perseverantly。The Foolish Old Man's spirit moved the Jade Emperor in heaven so much that he sent two angels down there,and carried the two mountains away,showing blue skies to the old man's doorway。

This story indicates that we need quite a dose of willpower in our work,fearing not difficulties and hardships。Passing through the rough road and then to the smooth and even trip,courage and perseverance are the key points。
