Dig Deep

Someone came to me and said, “I was very sympathetic once, but somehow I have become hardened. What is the reason for it?”

I said, “You tried to get water from the bottom of the earth. But instead of digging deep down you dug in the mud, and you were disappointed. If you have patience to dig till you reach water then you will not be disappointed.”

from the Short Stories of Hazrat Ihayat Khan.
