People that always trys to get your attention, may be your friends.
But people that gives you kind comments, are your true friends.
There is an abbot, who is very old.
He intends to choose one of hie disiples to be his successor when he leaves.
He chose Ted, Faith and Seith.
He sets a nearly impossible task for them
'I will give the three of you a drip of water now, a year later, if any of you could make that drip of water never to evaporate, that person will be my successor'
One year later, Faith told his master,
'I drop the water into a bottle and i sealed in very tightly, but it has gone barely even after 2 days.
Ted came with a Box that is made with metal and sealed completely that not even air can go in,
but when he opened the box, the water had already evaporated.
Seith came empty-handed and the abbot thought that he had failed his mission.
The abbot asked: ' Looks like you failed, didn't you?'
Seith shook his head and said:' No, and i am sure i have completed this task'
The abbot was surprised and asked: 'How did you do it?'
Seith finally said: I dripped it inside the sea.
The abbot grinned and said: 'Yes! The only way to not make the water evaporate, is to put it inside the sea.'
And of course, Seith became the successor.
