Tuesday, January 1, 2008 Focus 2008! 2007 has passed in a flash and the new year has taken a peek. Time for a story to mark the start of the new year..... Once upon a time, a young prince was captured by a king from the neighbouring state who threatened to take over the former's kingdom. However, the king gave the prince a chance to save his kingdom by challenging him to carry a pot full of water over his head and walk a good distance without spilling a single drop. The prince took up the challenge, hoping to win his kingdom back. He was given a pot of water that was filled to the brim, which he laid carefully on his head. As he walked, balancing the pot on his head, careful not to spill a drop of water, the prince came across many people who cheered, whilst others jeered. But the prince did not bother about any of them and continued to walk steadily. Eventually, he reached his destination and won the challenge. So my friends, the message this story conveys is that in our lives, we will meet many people who will put us down and others who will praise us to skies. However, we should never bother about criticisms or to give in to flattery. Instead, we should be very focused on our goal and keep going. Hence, let's the begin the new year with steadiness that would lead to accomplished goals and victory! HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!
