> JOY IN THE JOURNEY
> *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
> If you have ever been discouraged because of failure, please read on.
>
> For often, achieving what you set out to do is not the important thing.
> Let me explain.
>
> Two brothers decided to dig a deep hole behind their house. As they were
> working, a couple of older boys stopped by to watch.
>
> "What are you doing?" asked one of the visitors.
>
> "We plan to dig a hole all the way through the earth!" one of the brothers
> volunteered excitedly.
>
> The older boys began to laugh, telling the younger ones that digging
> a hole all the way through the earth was impossible.
> After a long silence, one of the diggers picked up a jar full of spiders,
> worms and a wide assortment of insects. He removed the lid and showed
> the wonderful contents to the scoffing visitors.
> Then he said quietly and confidently, "Even if we don't dig all the way
> through the earth, look what we found along the way!"
>
> Their goal was far too ambitious, but it did cause them to dig.
> And that is what a goal is for -- to cause us to move in the
> direction we have chosen; in other words, to set us to digging!
>
> But not every goal will be fully achieved.
> Not every job will end successfully.
> Not every relationship will endure.
> Not every hope will come to pass.
> Not every love will last.
> Not every endeavor will be completed.
> Not every dream will be realized.
>
> But when you fall short of your aim, perhaps you can say, "Yes, but look
> at what I found along the way!
> Look at the wonderful things which have come into my life because I
> tried to do something!"
>
> It is in the digging that life is lived.
> And I believe it is joy in the journey, in the end, that truly matters.
