Mud And Star

In one country, there was a lady whose husband is a military officer. She followed her husband to where he went.
Once her husband was assigned to station in one remote deserted village, but by an emergency call, her husband left her to other place, leaving her alone in this remote village.
She could not speak the local language with the villagers. She felt very lonely. Finally, she wrote a letter to her father, asking for advice.
Her father gave a reply, only telling a story to her. In this story, there were two prisoners in the prison somewhere. From window, one prisoner looked down to the mud ground and another saw the bright morning stars. There were no other words.
After reading over this letter, she understood its meaning. From that time on she started to mix with the villagers, learning their language, helping them in the daily life. She became a member of them.
When she returned to her own country, she wrote a book, describing the life in the desert. This book enjoyed a very popular selling because of her positive effort.
