Perhaps most of us were not much different from the man in the story above. Cursing and blaming other people or things around us for any inconvenience we experience .. Hopefully with this nice story, we can all realize that it is not possible in this life everything is always fun, it is not possible all that we plan, expect, and desire is always achieved. Can enjoy the pleasure and sadness, happiness and disappointment, success and failure, will make life much more colorful. Borrowing a phrase one of my best friend in a social networking site: If the rain like a failure, and the bright sunlight like a success, often need both to see the beautiful rainbow.
