The boy and the rock

One day God asked a small boy to push a rock.
So he obeyed.
He pushed n pushed n pushed.
Days passed.
Still the rock stays in its original position.
He perservered, and continued to push the rock.
Months passed.
Years passed.
Finally during the 6th year he could not take it anymore.
"God!"He cried. "Why are u asking me to do this? What is Your purpose? The rock didnt even move an inch!!"
Then God spoke," So are u gonna quit? Fine. Look at ur reflection now.
The boy saw his reflection on the sea water.
He is not longer the same.
Over the years he has grown into a young man, a strong young man that is, with muscles on his body n a confident expression on his face.
He dont only grow strongly physically, but learnt patience and is able to endured more challenges that happened in his life.
