As we all know, most of the time, something we consider as a weakness might not be a weakness at all! I didn't know it until I read a story. There is a water carrier who had two large buckets, each 1 on one end of a pole which he carried across his neck. One of the buckets had a crack in it. The other bucket was 2 and always delivered a full portion of water at the 3 of the long walk from the stream to the master's house. But the cracked bucket 4 only half full.
The perfect bucket was 5 of its accomplishments, but the poor cracked bucket was ashamed of its own 6 . It spoke to the water carrier one day. "I want to 7 to you."
The carrier 8 , "Why?" The bucket replied, "Because this crack in my side 9 water to leak out all the way back to your master's house. It is 10 because of my weaknesses that you don't get full value for your 11 ."
The water carrier felt 12 for the old cracked bucket, and said, "As we return to the master's house, I want you to 13 the beautiful flowers along the path." As they 14 up the hill, the old cracked bucket took notice of the sun 15 the beautiful wild flowers on the side of the path. "Did you know why? I 16 flower seeds on the path, and every day while we walk back from the 17 , you've watered them on your side. "
Each of us has our own 18 . You may think that you are 19 or useless, but somehow these weaknesses can turn out to be a(n) 20 .
