A trader was travelling along with his helpers to another country with goods. On the way, he reached a very hot desert. He hired a local guide to help him cross the desert at night. After some nights of travelling, the guide ate so much food that he slept sitting on the camel cart. The camels, who did not know the way, became lost. As morning dawned, the trader’s group realised that they had travelled in circles. They had also run out of water, and everyone started complaining. The trader realised he had to think of patipada, the way to reach his goal. He would have to find water first. He moved around the place in search of water. Suddenly, he saw a clump of grass and asked his helpers to dig there. The helpers dug. Soon, water gushed out from the hole. Everybody quenched his thirst and they continued their journey safely.
Moral: Never give up hope till you find a way
