The Wishing Well
On top of a hill overlooking a babbling brook stood a dilapidated
stone well. The wooden frame which had once been used to raise water
was broken and a discarded bucket sat on the ground nearby. The only
thing that made this old well special was a small tarnished plaque that
carried a three word inscription which read 'The Wishing Well'.
One morning a young man named Richard came upon the
well and read the small plaque. Richard was a cynical young man and he
scoffed at the idea of a wishing well. However, he was also very greedy
so he closed his eyes and wished for a large pot of gold...just in case.
He opened his eyes and looked around but nothing had changed.
As he prepared to leave, Richard happened to glance
down into the well and to his amazement he saw a huge pot of gold
floating at the bottom of the well. He immediately tried to reach down
into the well but he could not reach the gold. Next he tried to use a
piece of wood to retrieve the gold but again he had no luck. After many
frustrating attempts, Richard finally gave up. He cursed the wishing
well and walked away. Instantly the pot of gold disappeared.
The following day a young man named William came across
the well and he too read the small plaque that identified it as 'The
Wishing Well'. What William wanted more than anything else that morning
was an engagement ring so that he could propose to his sweetheart
Rebecca. He closed his eyes and made his wish. At first he saw nothing,
but then as he glanced down into the well he saw the most beautiful
diamond ring floating in an ebony box at the bottom of the well. Like
Richard, William first tried to reach down into the well and then tried
to use a nearby piece of wood - all to no avail.
After a great deal of frustration, he sat back and
reviewed his situation. Then suddenly, in a flash of inspiration he
knew what he had to do. He picked up the old bucket and walked down to
the babbling brook at the base of the hill. After filling the bucket
with water, he walked back up the hill and poured the water into the
well. To his delight, he noticed that the level of the water in the
well rose ever so slightly.
With a hint of success to spur him on, William began
transferring bucket loads of water from the brook to the well. He
worked steadily all day carrying buckets of water up to the wishing
well. With each bucket of water he poured into the well, the ring
floated closer to the surface. Finally as the sun was beginning to set,
William poured in another bucket of water and the ring came within his
reach. He grasped the stunning diamond ring and with a spring in his
step he set off to propose to his Rebecca.
-----------------------------------
The best part about this story is that the Wishing Well
really does exist and is available to each and every one of us.
Whenever you set a goal, your objective instantly becomes a
'possibility'. It is as though it appears in the bottom of the wishing
well. You can see it, but it is beyond your reach. Many people like
Richard look for a quick and easy way to reach their goal but they
inevitably get frustrated and walk away.
Those who achieve true success understand how life's
Wishing Well works. Like William, they recognize that they must put in
the time and effort to fill their well before they can collect their
prize.
