The water bearer felt sorry for the old cracked pot, and in his passion he said, “As we return to the master''s hou, I want you to notice the beautiful flowers along the path.”
Indeed, as they went up the hill, the old cracked pot took notibsp;of the sun warming the beautiful wild flowers on the side of the path, and this cheered it some. But at the end of the trail, it still felt bad bebsp;it had leaked out half its load, and so again it apologized to the bearer for its failure.
The bearer said to the pot, “Did you notibsp;that there were flowers only on your side of your path, but not on the other pot''s side? That''s bebsp;I have always known about your flaw, and I took advantage of it. I planted flower eds on your side of the path, and every day while we walk babsp;from the stream, you''ve watered them. For two years I have been able to pibsp;the beautiful flowers to decorate my master''s table. Without you being just the way you are, he would not have this beauty to grace his hou.”
