OUR STORY

 

 

Once upon a time, a king announced a prize for the artist who could paint the most beautiful picture depicting. Many artists made great efforts to create their paintings. The king admired all the artworks.

However, he only liked two paintings and had to choose one. One panting depicted a tranquil lake. the surface of the lake was like a perfect mirror reflecting the breathtakingly majestic surrounding mountains. Above, the sky was blue, adorned with smooth white clouds. Everyone who looked at the painting believed it to be a truly serene and perfect representation.

 

The other painting also depicted mountains. However, these mountains were rugged and jagged, with sharp cliffs and rocky edges. Above, the sky was filled with angry, pouring rain accompanied by thunder and lightning. Cascading down the mountain walls was a roaring waterfall, creating frothy white foam. This painting appeared anything but serene.

However, as the king looked closely, he noticed a small bush growing from a crack in one of the rocks behind the waterfall. Within the bush, a mother bird was building her nest. Amidst the raging waterfall, the mother bird sat peacefully on her nest, undisturbed by the turbulent cascade. This was true serenity.

So, the king chose the second painting.

Tranquility does not always mean being in place without noise or difficulted. Inner peace means the even in the midst of chaos, we can feel a sense of calmness within our hearts. True serenity lies within our inner being, not in the external circumstances surrounding.
