Dear friend,
I’d like to share a traditional Chinese fairy tale with you. It is an old and educational story.
Once upon a time, there was a hard-working farmer. He worked in his field every day. One day, when he was working, he saw a rabbit run fast and hit a tree. It died at once. The farmer was very happy and took the rabbit home for dinner.
After that day, the farmer didn’t want to work hard anymore. He hoped to get another rabbit easily. So he stopped working, sat under the tree every day and waited for more rabbits to come.
Day after day, no more rabbits came. His field grew full of wild grass. Finally, he got nothing and lost all his crops.
This story tells us: no pain, no gain. We can’t get good things without hard work.
Yours,
Jerry
