Once upon a time there were two friends , one of them was tolerant by nature while the other was impatient.

One day , when they were carrying baskets full of fruits on their heads from their village to a nearby town to sell , the impatient one soon started to complain:" hey , I'm tired. I Can't go on , I can't stand this anymore "

" Are you serious ? We've just started !" Exclaimed the tolerant one .

" Anyway , I can't go on ."
"I wonder why you're like this !".

" I know your load is heavier than mine and you're not stronger than me either , but I don't understand how you can laugh and be happy while you are carrying it "

" you know , I've put a kind  of plant on my load which lightens it and makes it quiet easy for me to bear "

" Really ! Is that right ? Can you give me a piece of that plant .?"

" Certainly. It is the plant of patience which lightens any load ."
