The oyster lesson (adapted from a poster)

Most of us can take a lesson from the oyster.

The most extraordinary thing about the oyster is this: irritations get into his shell; he does not like them and tries to get rid of it. However, when he cannot do anything about it, he settles down to make them one of the most beautiful things in the world.

My friends, if there are irritations in our lives, today there is a prescription: a pearl called patience.

I really hope I can live like an oyster.
