Richard’s
father had worked all his life as a carpenter. He had always wanted wealth but
had never received it. That drove him to work even harder, and the pressure had
finally squashed him flat.
“Richard,
every day for the last 20 years I have visited the Well of Wealth and spent a
dollar. Today, I need your help. Here’s a dollar. Go buy another bucket of that
Well Water, son. I’m counting on you.”
Richard was
nine years old. He felt sorry for his father, and a little scared. The wealth
of the family now lay in his hands, with this dollar note. This dollar was the
key to his family’s wealth and his father’s health.
THE WELL
As Richard
walked the path to the Well, he wondered why the Well hadn’t given generously
to his father, or to most of the other villagers for that matter. Many of them
were in a worse financial state than his
poor dad.
Sure, they
got a bucket of that Well Water every day without fail. But from what he could
see, all they ever did was drink it dry.
Richard
asked an old lady,she owned the well.He wanted to be rich.
“Well, well, well! You want to be wealthy. And
when will you know when you get there?”
“How hard
are you willing to work to become wealthy?”
The old lady
asked him
she said
“Think it, ink it.”
