Each Drop...


Drop by Drop...

These words from Buddha's teachings shed some light on the simplicity
on the subject of payment and efforts.

"Do not make light of your failings, saying, 
"What are they to me?"
A jug fills drop by drop.  
So the fool becomes brimful of folly."


"Do not belittle your virtues, Saying, "
They are nothing"
A jug fills drop by drop. 
So the wise man becomes filled with virtue."


Buddha is saying, Be true to yourself, and each drop becomes valuable.
Both failure and success serve the one making efforts.


Also, in my observations, like the difference between 'real suffering'
and 'imaginary suffering',  there is 'real payment' and 'imaginary payment'
