Dandelion Field



There once was a young man in a far off land who planted a flower garden. But when the flowers came up so did a big crop of dandelions among them. Wishing to eliminate the unwanted guests, he consulted with gardeners near and far, but none of their solutions worked.

Finally, the young man traveled to the palace of the king to seek the wisdom of the royal gardener himself. But unfortunately, he had already tried all the methods the royal gardener recommended to him. Silently they sat together for a good long time.

At last, the royal gardener looked at him and said: "Well, then, the only thing I can suggest is that you learn to love them."

We don't always choose our situations, and rarely do great things come our way without challenges attached. So turn the challenge into to something you appreciate, as it is a part of what you really want.
