What do you mean, feet are longer than roads?

Feet are longer than roads.

The ancient kingdom of Arabica is located deep in the desert, and the castle has been destroyed by sandstorms for many years. The king told the four princes that he intended to move the capital to Karen, which is said to be beautiful and rich.

Karen is far from here. She has to climb many mountains, cross grasslands, swamps and wade many rivers, but no one knows how far.

So the king decided to let his four sons explore the road separately.

The eldest prince walked by car for seven days, climbed three mountains and came to the endless grassland. When he asked the local people, he learned that he had crossed grasslands, swamps, rivers and snow-capped mountains ...

The second prince rode through a swamp and was turned back by a wide river.

The third prince drifted across two big rivers, but was scared away by another distant desert.

A month later, the three princes returned to the king one after another and reported to the king what they had seen along the way, repeatedly stressing that they had asked many people on the road and told them that it was a long way to Karen.

Five days later, the little prince came back dusty and excitedly reported to his father that it was only 18 days' journey to Karen.

The king smiled with satisfaction: "Son, you are right. In fact, I have been going to Karen for a long time. "

Several princes looked at the king puzzled-"Then why did you send us to explore the road?"

The king said seriously, "that's because I just want to tell you four words-feet are longer than roads."

Yes, the foot is longer than the road, and no matter how far it is, I'm afraid there is no foot to reach it. So is life. We are not afraid of lofty goals, but we are afraid of the courage, enthusiasm and persistence to pursue them ... As long as our hearts are always burning with firm beliefs and going forward, we will be surprised to find that many so-called distances are not far away.

I also learned from the story that feet are longer than roads. You got it?
