Once upon a time, a dog approached an
elephant to get into a child bearing
competition.
In 3 months the dog gave birth to 6
puppies. In the next 3 months the dog gave
birth to yet another set of puppies.
The elephant finally gave birth after 20
months by which time the dog had given
birth to over 30 puppies and was mocking
the elephant into
believing that it had won the competition.
The elephant had a few words for the dog
when the baby elephant came out after 20
months.
"I can see you had fooled yourself into
believing that you had won the competition.
I think you can appreciate now that:
1. I don't give birth to puppies
2. When I do give birth, the calf will be ready
to
face the world on its own
3. The combined weight of your 36 puppies
is less than a fifth of my calf's weight
4. The moment my calf steps into this earth
it
makes an immediate great impact as if no
dog was ever born."
I thought that was amazing.
I have observed something under the sun.
The fastest runner doesn't always win the
race, and the strongest warrior doesn't
always win the battle.
The wise sometimes go hungry and the
skillful are not necessarily wealthy. And
those that are
educated don't always lead successful lives.
It is all decided by being in the right place at
the right time.'
I want you to think like an elephant. Don't
envy
cheap quick success. For as long as you are
in the right place, your chance is coming
and by the signs of time it won't be long.
You are guaranteed to make it in this life.
Maintain your faith in God even when it
looks like its all over for you.
Looks are deceiving but the word remains
forever.
Hope you remember that outstanding
football match that got every one talking?

When it's your time, God will correct 10yrs

mistakes with 1 event.
Patience is a virtue, so don't you ever give
up!
