Even more, I never able to continue my task after that. Then I recall this simple story which gives me hope to follow my passion again.
This story is related to a famous ruler of Tartary whose name was Tamerlane. Like Alexander the Great, he wished to become the master of the whole world. So he raised a great army and made war against other countries.
He conquered many kings and burned many cities. But at last, his army was beaten; his men were scattered; Tamerlane fled alone from the field of battle.
For a long time, he wandered in
fear from place to place. His foes were looking for him. He was in despair. He was about to lose all hope.
One day he was lying under a tree, thinking of his misfortunes. He had now been a wanderer for twenty days. He could not hold out much longer. Suddenly he saw a small object creeping up the trunk of the tree. He looked more closely and saw that it was an ant.
