The story about the tiny frogsÂ….
LifeÂ’s lesson
No. 1
There once was a bunch of tiny frogs,..Â… who arranged a running competition.
The goal was to reach the top of a very high tower.
A big crowd had gathered around the tower to see the race and cheer on the contestants...
The race began...
Honestly:
No one in the crowd really believed that the tiny frogs would reach the top of the tower.
You heard statements such as:
"Oh, WAY too difficult!!
They will NEVER make it to the top."
or:
"Not a chance that they will succeed. The tower is too high!"
The tiny frogs began collapsing. One by one...
... Except for those who in a fresh tempo were climbing higher and higher...
The crowd continued to yell
"It is too difficult!!! No one will make it!"
More tiny frogs got tired and gave up...
...But ONE continued higher and higher and higher...
This one wouldnÂ’t give up!
At the end everyone else had given up climbing the tower. Except for the one tiny frog who after a big effort was the only one who reached the top!
THEN all of the other tiny frogs naturally wanted to know how this one frog managed to do it?
A contestant asked the tiny frog how the one who succeeded had found the strength to reach the goal?
It turned out...
That the winner was DEAF!!!!
The wisdom of this story is:
Never listen to other peopleÂ’s tendencies to be negative or pessimistic...
Â…cause they take your most wonderful dreams and wishes away from you. The ones you have in your heart!
Always think of the power words have.
Because everything you hear and read will affect your actions!
Therefore:
ALWAYS beÂ…
POSITIVE!
And above all
Be DEAF when people tell YOU that YOU can not fulfil YOUR dreams!
Always think: I can do this! -
when the frog reached the top, the crowd saw an eagle and yelled get down! get down!
being deaf, he could not hear
being so high, he could not read their lips
being so full of himself that he made it, he didn't care
and he continued to parade around on the top, smug that he made it.. then... snap! the eagle got him and he died...
Moral of the story:
if you are too single-minded and you have reached your goal, something else is gonna get you.. because there will always be someone out to get you when you are up on top..
AND
when you are up on top, never EVER lose touch with the ground level.. else you will be oblivious to whatever will swoop down and get you... -

if you're the frog, what good does it do that you are poisonous? you're dead!Originally posted by leexiancikevin:The eagle doesnt noe that the frog was poisonous .. so in the end the eagle died...

..and given that the eagle is a deaf dude himself, both of them finally find a good friend to exchange handsign/wingsign with.
with that, they live happily ever after... -
