Story of the Day: Pushed

What have I really missed? Have been so busy that I didn't have time to think on what to post or get stories to post, would try to improve on making out time even when am busy. Have also missed some blog post from other wonderful bloggers. Blogging is not easy oooo, but quiting is not an option now. May God Help me and others in the blogsphere continue impacting, Amen. so let's go on to today's story.....

A man had  one daughter. When the daughter was of marriageable age, the father sent news around town that all the eligible young men should come to compete in a test which would determine who was fit to marry his daughter. 

On the set day, all the able-bodied young men came out. Some came with paper and pen and others with cutlasses and swords.

The rich man took them to his swimming pool and addressed the men: “Any of you who can swim from one end of this swimming pool to the other would marry my daughter. In addition, I'll give him 15 million

naira, a car and a house so they can start life well. I shall be waiting to meet my son-in-law at the other side. Good luck!”

As the young men, all very excited at the prospect of winning, started taking off their shirts, a helicopter came over the pool and dropped snakes and crocodiles into the

pool. Immediately, all the men turned back and started wearing their shirts again.

Disappointed, some of them said, ''That's crazy, no one will'. All of a sudden,they heard a splash in the pool. Everybody watched in amazement as one gentleman struggled his way across, avoiding the snakes and crocodiles. Finally, he made it to the other side. 

The rich man could not believe it. He asked the young man to name anything he wanted but the man was still panting uncontrollably.

Finally, he got himself together and made a request saying, ''SHOW ME THE PERSON WHO PUSHED ME INSIDE THIS
POOL!''

Moral: You don’t know what you are capable of doing, until you are PUSHED!!. Sometimes it takes going through the bad moments to bring out d BEST in us. Trials are raw materials for Triumphant Testimonies... 

The push might take different dimensions: some people needed to be sacked before realizing their potentials and reaching their goals in life.
