Goat And Snail

Once upon a time, a goat asked a snail, “Could you race with me?” The snail said, “I will.”
Of course, we know that the goat was the winner and the snail was the loser. The goat only ran for one hour, while the snail took a few months.
However, in this story, it's not important who the winner was. What's important is the snail's spirit to join the competition. Despite being slow and losing, the snail finished the race, and that was great.
In our human lives, we face similar situations. Many people are much better off and possess wealth, while we are poor. We should learn from the snail's spirit. Despite being poor and uneducated, we can work hard to earn money and learn new things.
There is a Chinese saying that goes, "There is nothing difficult in the world as long as you have the determination to change.
