A child complains to his father about his life and asking why lives it feels so hard to him. It doesn't know how facing it and nearly gives up. He was weary for fight. Seems to be every time one problem is finished, arise new problem.
His father, a cooky, taking him to kitchen. He fills 3 pans with water and puts it upon damps down. After water at that pan boil. He puts carrot in first pan, egg at second pan and he puts powder coffee at last pan. He lets it boils without get word. The child gags and waiting impatiently, think up what do being worked by fathers.
After 20 minutes, fathers switches off to damp down. He setting apart carrot and puts it at bowl, lifting egg and placing it at the other bowl, and pours coffee at another bowl. Then He asks to his child, "What do you see, son?" "Carrot, egg, and coffee" answer the child. His father asks him to hover and asks him to feeling that carrot. He does it and feeling that carrot feels soft. His father then asks him to take egg and breaks it. After discarding its skin, he gets a harden egg. Last, his father asks him to taste coffee. He smiles while taste coffee with its typical aroma.
Afterwards, the child asks, "What does it mean about all this, Father?" His father tell him that they have faced same handicap, poaching, but each point out reaction that variably. Carrot before stewed strength, hard and not breakable. But afters is poached, carrot becomes tender and soft. Fragile previous egg. Its flimsy eggshell protect its content that as liquid as. But afters is poached, its content becomes hard. Coffee powder experiences changing unique one. After is in stewing water, coffee powder revamp that water.
"Which one are you?," ask his father. "While problem come to you, how can you handdle it? What are you carrot, egg or coffee?" How about you? Are you carrot that apparently hard, but with marks sense grief and handicap, you give up, as soft and your fading. Are you egg, one that initially have tender heart? With soul one that dynamic, but afters marks sense death, broken heart, separate or dismissal becomes hard and rigorous. From outside visible same, but do you become bitter and hard with soul and rigorous heart? Or are you coffee powder? Coffee powder revamps hot water, something that evoking painfulness, to reach its maximal taste on temperature 100 degree Celcius. While water reach hottest temperature, coffee feels to get relish. If you are powder of coffee, while the situation become gets bad, you will be getting better and make situation around you also get better.
