One day he asked his wife. "When I was looking bleak4 for my own future, what was the reason that you had so much faith in me?"
His wife gave him a simple reply. She said, "When a piece of land is not suitable for planting wheat, we could
try planting beans. If the beans are not growing well, we could try planting fruits or gourds. If the vegetation is not economical, we can instead scatter buckwheat seeds. These seeds will one day bloom into flowers. There will be one seed that will germinate and grow".
He was very happy with the explanation. His wife's faith, love, patience, and persistence in him has helped him cultivate himself and
succeed.
In this world, no one is useless. It may appear that some are succeeding and some are failing, but it is just that the ones who are failing have not positioned themselves firmly in the right place. They should keep trying with faith, love, patience and persistence.
