finally a day off!

yea!! today finally got a day off! off studies and training.. it's like a new refreshing start! let me share this story i heard during my working days..

there was once this woodcutter.
he was a very hard working woodcutter.
at the start of his job, he cut many trees.
more than the rest of his colleagues.
day after day he worked very hard but somehow,
the number of trees he cut each day grew lesser.
even his colleagues who took a lot of breaks chopped down more trees than him.
he was wondering why.
so one day he asked them.
"why is it that i worked hard through out the day and yet cut lesser than u guys?"
his colleague replied,
"dont u see us having these breaks in between?
in one hand we have our tea and food,
but in the other, we're holding a sharpener, sharpening our axes."
the man looked at his axe and it was very blunt through all the chopping.
he realised he needed a break to sharpen his axe.
and after doing that, he once again was able to chop the same number of trees juz as before.
so the moral of the story here is that we should take breaks whenever we need them. for me, this break has helped me a lot! i managed to catch up on a lot of rest. dun need to worry about the pressure of training. so i can relax my body. my body is really very tired.. have been wanting this break for a long time by taking MC for fun. but now i thank God i have this break. now i'm so refreshed, i'm excited to go back to school!
