Success and a stone

Two people named "Success" and "Failure" go to a forest to collect strange stones
They arrived. The two of them picked up stones as they liked
We planned to return home.

On the way back, "Success" had only one stone in its bag, while "Failure" had a bag full of different shaped stones.

"Failure" was surprised by this and asked, "Why are you a rock?"
Did you pick it up?” I asked “Success”.

"One block is enough," replied Success.

Both of them laughed and laughed. After talking, they came back. But not long after, halfway through the trail, "failure" made me unable to carry my heavy backpack. So he had to spare some stones and throw them away. As she continued to walk, she couldn't reach "success" again. Again he had to throw some stones from the bag to catch up. "Success", which was only a stone's throw away, was able to take the lead without getting tired. "Failure" had blown away the rocks one by one, and I was still exhausted with a sweat. By the time I got home, there were no stones left in the bag of "defeat".

One day after 50 years, "Success" and "Failure" met face to face. At that time, I did not remember the aging "failure" as "success". The once strong cuts are no longer found in "Failure". "Success" is just as agile as it was 50 years ago, and the self-confident smile on his face is even brighter. Two friends who had been separated for a long time were talking about old times.

"Because I had only one stone in my bag," answered "Success."

In fact, it was not an easy task to put only one stone in the bag and keep it handy all the time. There are many strange stones around me
It takes courage and determination to pick just one stone. Throughout human life, there have been many objects that have attracted people more than a strange stone. For example: money; Gunpakasana position and power good name home Car.. etc. and the courage to let something go. There are decisions.

Some people don't want to let go of anything, they put everything in their bag and finally can't carry it like "failure". They can't move forward. Some of them were able to give up everything for "success" and always put the one thing they need in their bag easily.
