In order not to be used by others…
Once upon a time, father and son went to see a circus.
An elephant is performing in the circus.
A man about 5 feet 4 inches tall held a small whip and asked the elephant to sit down. asked to stand up When I asked him to play with the ball, he did what he wanted to do.
The father showed this to his son…
“You see, son, a small man wielding a small whip and commanding a huge elephant that is much bigger than him.”
“The fact that the big elephant is being forced to do so is not because that person is good, but because the big elephant is mean. If the big elephant uses all of his strength and abilities, he can trample and destroy an entire city, not to mention that person.”
“Unfortunately, he didn’t use all of his abilities, so he was being used by others,” he told his son.
The lesson that the child wants to learn from this incident is..
Use your strengths. If not, it must be used by others.
