they have nice songs, nice jokes but the best part is the meaningful stories that make me rethink about what i am doing now...

sharing 2 stories here:

Old monk instruct young monk to go downhill to the well to bring up 2 full buckets of water. And he did as told, but didnt realise that the buckets had a small holes, hence the buckets brought back to the temple were always not full. And young monk had to get some scolding...and old monk ask him to go carry again. he did it repeatedly with an unpleasant feeling...then one day old monk told him to look around the track that he walked everyday to carry water. and young monk realise that beautiful flowers grew all over the track that he carried those water. the leak water nourish the plants and make them grew.

Moral: sometime we do things without reasons, but if we know is good then we must do. we might not know one day success might be at the doorsteps.


2nd story:
boy's hand is stuck in the flower vase. Mother of the boy tried to pull the hand out of the expensive vase but wasnt able to, hence she had to break the vase to free the hand. the hand of the boy wasnt hurt at all. the boy clench the fist. the boy is holding to 1 dollar coin. and that is the reason why the hand cannot come out of the vase.

Moral: sometime in life, we held on to little things, and at the end lost more important and major things or opportunity...
