told me that a daughter complained to her father by the misfortunes of his life inexperienced, not knowing why or how to go forward.
was tired of fighting in vain, when solving a problem, there no more, another would appear.
His father was a cook and a man of few words. After hearing repeated laments his daughter that morning, filled three pots with water and placed them on fire. Soon they were boiling. In a of them placed carrots, in other eggs, and the last grains of coffee.
She asked for the intentions of his father who could not understand. After twenty minutes she turned off the fire. She fished the carrots out and placed in a pot, then did the same with the eggs and finally ladled the coffee out and placed in another container. Then he asked:
- "What do you see?"
- "Carrots, Eggs and Coffee", was the immediate response.
The chef asked his daughter to feel the carrots. She did and noted that they were soft. Then he said to take an egg and break it, to break the shell noticed that it was hard. Then he said sip the coffee and liked to enjoy its rich aroma.
She asked: - "What does this mean?".
He then explained that these objects had faced the same adversity: boiling water. However, the three had responded quite differently.
Carrot softness hardness gave way, the egg firmly embrittlement changed, only the coffee beans could transform the color and taste of water.
Cook added: - "Tell me dear, when adversity knocks at your door How you respond? Are you a carrot, egg or a coffee bean?"
many people who pride themselves on their toughness dismayed by the first disappointment ...! Other people unexpectedly, looking weak, are stronger in the conflict, very few, however, are able to overcome the causes of pain with a positive reaction, unexpected, harmony for the good of all. Instead of cursing
water temperature could investigate the quality of our response.
The aroma of good coffee permeates, is unmistakable, net always welcome.
