Pebbles in Shoes!
There was a hiking contest between a group of school kids. The teacher asked each kid to pour a handful of pebbles in his or her left shoe, but keep the right shoe clean and comfortable. Then the hiking race began and kids were interviewed after the hiking. Some of them said that they couldn't get along with the pebbles, so they had to stop and take the pebbles out. But this took them some time and they got behind the group. Other group of kids stated that they were trying to ignore the left shoe (uncomfortable one), by focusing on the comfort of the right shoe. They say it was very hard to keep concentrated, for the comfort of each right step would remind them of the coming painful left step and they still would hesitate to take the left step! Finally there were a few who decided to ignore both the comfortable and uncomfortable shoes and walk as if there were no difference between the two shoes! They could keep the balance in walking and win the race ...
