At one time, I joined Multinational company sent an email asking: Are you a carrot, an egg or a coffee bean? Of course I am not one of them, but the title struck me funny and I read the story.

The story was about a girl who was struggling in hers life and went to visit her mother to tell her how things were so difficult for her. Each time the couple has solved one problem, another arose – it was ready to resign.

The mother heard her daughter and took her to the kitchen. They put carrots in a pot, add water and put it on the stove. Then he took some eggs, put them in a pot, add water and put the second pot on the stove. Then the mother took coffee beans, place them in a third pot, add a little water and placed in the oven too. The potted trees were sitting in the kitchen, boiling point, while the two women sat quietly in the kitchen.

After about twenty minutes, the mother put out the fire. She fished the carrots out and placed on a plate, then took the eggs out and placed in a container and, finally, she ladled the coffee out and placed in a cup. The mother turned to her daughter and asked her “What do you see?” “Carrots, eggs and coffee,” replied the daughter. She brought her closer and told him to feel the carrots, the daughter saw that she had become soft. Then the mother asked her daughter to take the eggs and break them, and the daughter observed the hard boiled egg. Finally, the mother asked him to smell and sip the coffee.

The issue was that these objects had faced the same adversity – boiling water – but each reacts differently. First the carrots were strong and tough, but after being boiled became soft and weak. The egg had been fragile, but after being in hot water, its inside became hardened soft. The coffee beans were unique: after being exposed to boiling water they had changed the water.

Similar to carrots, eggs and coffee beans were placed in boiling water, people react differently if the studies draw on its doorstep. Like some carrots appear strong, but with pain and adversity, they wither and lose their strength. Others are like eggs, with a passive heart and a fluid spirit, and after experiencing difficulties and frustrations hardened and insensitive to others. Few are like coffee beans, which actually changed the hot water, releasing its fragrance and flavor. With the increase of the painful circumstances surrounding them, which are like coffee beans became better and even managed to change the situation.

But We humans are gifted with a powers of both Brain and Heart, where we play different roles of a carrot, eggs and coffee after boiling depens on the situation we are put in.. But Stand Hard & Still like an egg,  soft hearted like carrot and spread fregrance of love and happiness like coffee in any situation is the Key to the Story

Thanks For Reading.
