Once, a landlord lost a luxury watch while inspecting his barn. Unable to find it, he offered a $500 reward to the local children. Driven by the reward, the children searched the barn diligently, but the vast piles of grain and straw made it impossible. As the sun set, they all gave up, one by one. Only one poor child persisted, determined to win the reward. As twilight fell and the noise faded, he suddenly heard a strange sound. "Tick, tick," it went. The child stopped moving, and in the silence, the ticking became clearer. Following the sound, he finally found the expensive watch in the darkness. "Sit quietly and do nothing, and the grass will grow green in spring." Only when the water is calm can it reflect the sun and the moon. Similarly, only when a person is calm can they see through the distractions that cloud their thoughts, obscure their true emotions, impair their judgment, and hinder them from finding answers. If you can maintain a place of tranquility within your heart, you will surely reach the shore of success.
