Seven weavers

There is a wonderful short story, which is so true in it’s today’s context:

The story follows as:-
SEVEN weavers once started on a moonlight journey. They had not gone very far from their home when they lost the road. After trying to find their way, they came to a field of flax, which they took to be a river, as the field was in flower, and they fancied the blue color of the flower to be that of water. They stripped themselves and began swimming. After hard labor, they got across. To make certain that no one was drowned, they took the precaution of counting themselves before resuming their journey; but they discovered that one of them was missing, as each forgot to count himself. Grieved at the loss of one of their company, they had not the heart to pursue their journey, but returned home.

At many points in life we come across a situation wherein we have moved wrong and with a prejudice are tempted to foresee the solution of the problems, that we face. Infact if we act wisely we will certainly find that, the problem, which is thought to be problem, was never a problem at all.
