Then you meet another cloud with the same potential. The newly gained company creates motivation. “Let’s see who can make it rain !” you say. You think that with more people trying, you can shower more rain, “We can do it!” you chorus. But the hills below you remain dry. You then come across mountains and winds. In the attempt to overcome these troubles, you get separated.
Then you meet an old rain cloud. “Do you want to make it rain, little one?” the cloud bellows. “ Join me. Become a part of my strength.” But you don’t want that! You want individual glory. You don’t want your precious pearls that you have spent your life collecting, to be lost in obscurity.
You move on. You meet a happy bunch of clouds. They seem as small as you. But look! The fields below them are glistening and wet. “How did you make it rain ?” you ask.
“ Because we have ability within us.” “ But so do I!” you exclaim. “ I can do it!” you yell with doubled strength. But not a drop falls from your straining body. “ We said ‘us’ not ‘I’. The clouds reply happily and once again spray the fields with rain. Excited, you join them. “We can do it!” you shout. But still no results! Why? What did you do wrong? The clouds smile. “Do you want to know why you failed? It’s because you were working ‘by’ us, but not ‘with’ us. Only when we all come together , using our strengths and helping each other out in times of need while still keeping our individual shapes, only then we can succeed. Finally you understand the secret. “ We can do it TOGETHER !” Everyone shouts and you shower the world with your brilliance.
This is not the original one rather I read it somewhere and was inspired a lot. I just tried to share it with you people.
