Don't limit yourself

 

One day mother and a baby camel were lying around, and unexpectedly the baby camel asked, “mother, may I ask you some concerns? The mother said, “Sure! Why son, is there something worrying you? Baby said, “Why do camels have humps?” The mother said, “Well son, we are desert animals, we need the humps to conserve water and we are recognized to survive without water”

Baby said, “Okay, then why are our legs long and our feet rounded?” The mother said, “Son,  they are meant for walking in the desert. You realize with these legs I can move around the desert better than anyone does!” Baby said, “Okay, then why are our eyelashes lengthy? Sometimes it bothers my vision”. Mother with pride said, “My son, those long midst eyelashes are your protective cover. They enable you to protect your eyes from the desert sand and wind”.

Baby after thinking said, “I glimpse. So the hump is to conserve water when we are in the desert, the legs are for stepping through the desert and these eyelashes protect my eyes from the desert. what in god’s word are we doing here in the Zoo!?”

What we infer from this story is that of how we can be useless living, functioning, and even learning in the wrong environment. Skills, knowledge, talents, capacities, and experiences are only valuable if you are at the right place. There’s no chance of growing and exceeding in an environment that limits your skills, awareness, and potential.
