[00:00.96]10.Calamity
[00:03.25]A girl grumbled to her father about her hard life.
[00:07.39]She didn’t know what she had to do and wanted to give up.
[00:11.31]She felt tired for fighting and fighting.
[00:13.92]One problem had been finished but the other overcame.
[00:17.74]Her father, a cook, took her into the kitchen.
[00:21.00]He poured water into three pans and boiled them.
[00:24.82]After boiling, in the first pan was put some carrots, the second was put some eggs and the last was put with coffee.
[00:34.39]He waited for them for a few minutes without any words from his mouth.
[00:39.29]The girl closed her mouth and waited impatiently, confused by what her father did.
[00:45.18]After approximately 20 minutes, her father turned off the stove, took out the carrots and put them in a bowl.
[00:53.45]He took the eggs and put them in a bowl.
[00:56.66]After that the coffee was poured into a cup.
[01:00.69]Turning back to his daughter, he asked, “My sweet heart, what do you see?”
[01:06.35]“Carrots, eggs, and coffee,” she replied.
[01:10.27]Her father told her to close her eyes and asked her to touch the carrots.
[01:17.57]She did and felt that the carrots were soft.
[01:21.49]After that he asked her to take the eggs and break them.
[01:25.30]After peeling them, she got the eggs, cooked and hard.
[01:30.08]The last, the father asked her to smell the coffee.
[01:34.66]She asked, “What’s the meaning, Father?”
[01:38.91]He explained that each had suffered the same unfortunate experience—the boiling water, but each had a different reaction.
[01:48.60]The strong and hard carrots had become soft and weak after being in the boiling water.
[01:54.93]The fragile eggs with thin epidermis covering the liquid interior became hard after cooked.
[02:02.26]The coffee grounds were very unique, but they could change water.
[02:08.05]“Who are you?” asked her father, “When calamity knocks at your door, what is your reaction?
[02:15.17]Are you carrots, eggs, or coffee?”
