"That big one you got on your hand, costs three dollars." Said the farmer.
"But, I’ve got only thirty cents." Replied the girl.
"Thirty cents will buy you a small watermelon." Replied the farmer. "Like that one, said the farmer." Pointing to a, small watermelon in the field.
"Okay, I’ll take it," Smiled the little girl. "Here’s your thirty cents, but leave it on the vine. I’ll be back for it, in a month." She replied.
Impatience, or haste makes great waste, and great haste makes great waste. Many times, we hear of how much damage, loss or depravity impatience can cause us. But, seldom do we hear, or get to be told what great good, patience can achieve for us, or bring to us. This pretty smart little girl, knew what her patience was capable of getting her. She realized, she'd be rewarded by just being patient one month, more. Patience could get her a big, ripe watermelon worth thirty dollars for just thirty cents.
