KEEP PUSHING #ulog

A king once announced that he will be giving out his daughter's hand in marriage and a part of his kingdom to any Prince who could complete a simple task.

So all interested Princes where required to show up on the D-day.

Off course who wouldn't? I mean with such a lucrative offer.

So, soon came the King with the beautiful Princess and led everyone to a pool of water

and said to all the Princes in attendance:

"Your task is simple, to marry my daughter: you only have to swim from this end of the pool to the other end and back...then only, can you have my daughter for yourself"

wow! "is that all"? they replied, "so easy a task" one of the Princes said.

"But wait" the King echoed "don't be too fast" he said,

then he picked a piece of raw animal flesh and threw it into the water, amidst two huge crocodiles stretching their jaws out to consume the flesh.@funkywanderer

Astonished and amazed, the suitors carefully and respectively gave up on the task as that was too much a task to undergo.@auyvc @ekjosh

Suddenly, there was a bang! in the water as one the Princes had dived into the water swimming for escape from the predators that went after him, the hungry crocodiles swam with efforts to crush this awesome meal but our young Prince was too fast for this two monsters as he moved with precision and smart dives.@metama

The next thing we knew, the young Prince was out of the water, he had reached the end of the pool and back without the crocodiles catching up with him.

You can only imagine the applause and accolades that came with such amazing feat. Indeed the atmosphere was electrified with shouts and praises for the young man.@misterakpan

But there was a problem; our young Prince wasn't happy, he came out fuming with anger and then asked a question and this was the question:

"Who Pushed Me Into This Water?" @papaudeme

(Laugh it off...lol)@gainingsteem

Hmmmmmmmmm....... what a question? You mean he was actually pushed into the water?

but you know what?@giftakpan

That push made the difference in his life ever after.@misterakpan

Sometimes we need such push to change the course of our lives whether we like it or not, whether we are aware or not, it doesn't matter, it's just necessary and sometimes there might be no one to push you, don't bother just give yourself that honest push, go beyond limits, take up territories, be bold enough to make a mark at where others failed and conquer as you win.

Keep pushing!
