Here is a parable caught in the morning.
The famous Japanese Buddhist Daisaku Ikeda told a parable once Gorbachev ( excerpt from Gorbachev " My manifesto Earth "):
"Suppose that the water lilies in the pond each day doubled the space they occupy . Estimated that they need thirty days to completely cover the surface of the pond.
This means that the twenty- ninth day of covered only half of the surface of the pond.
Those who look to the pond that day , they saw that half of the pond is free, and think that the situation is not catastrophic.
But in fact, to the capacity of the pond was just one day!
