Inspiration and Motivation, Insights and Oversights. Stories that Uplift the Human Spirit
Everyone has a dream. Some people dream of becoming rich and famous, while others dream of making a difference in the world. But few people actually set out to achieve their dreams.
That’s why the story of one man who set out to conquer the world is so inspiring. This man’s name was Alexander the Great, and he was one of the greatest military leaders of all time.
Alexander was born in 356 BC in Macedonia, a country in northern Greece. When he was just 16 years old, he became the king of Macedonia. He then set out to conquer the world.
In just 12 years, he conquered most of the known world. He defeated the armies of Persia, Egypt, and India. He even crossed into Europe, where he defeated the armies of Greece and Italy.
In the end, Alexander’s empire extended from Greece all the way to India. He was just 32 years old when he died, but he had accomplished more in his short life than most people could ever hope to achieve in a lifetime.
Alexander’s story is an inspiration to us all. It shows us that anything is possible if we set our minds to it. So, dream big and never give up on your dreams.
There also once lived a powerful king who undertook an expedition to conquer foreign lands. His wise counselor asked him, “Great king, to what purpose do you set out on this endeavor?” “To become master of Asia”, the king replied. “And then what?” asked the counselor. “I shall invade Arabia”, said the king. “And after that?” “I shall conquer Europe and Africa; and finally, when the whole world is under me, I shall rest and live at ease.” To this the wise counselor retorted, “But what keeps you from resting and living at ease here and now, if that is all you want? You could settle down this very day without the trouble and risks.
Conquering The World; Short stories that Inspires is a story that would surely motivate us to keep our mind right.

HEALING TOOLS FOR THE JAW, MOUTH, AND THROAT
Once upon a time, an elderly woman had two large pots, each hung on the ends of a pole which she carried across her neck.
One of the pots had a crack in it while the other pot was perfect and always delivered a full portion of water.
At the end of the long walks from the stream to the house, the cracked pot arrived only half full.
For a full two years this went on daily, with the woman bringing home only one and a half pots of water.
Of course, the perfect pot was proud of its accomplishments.
But the poor cracked pot was ashamed of its own imperfection, and miserable that it could only do half of what it had been made to do.
After two years of what it perceived to be bitter failure, it spoke to the woman one day by the stream.
‘I am ashamed of myself, because this crack in my side causes water to leak out all the way back to your house.
The old woman smiled, ‘Did you notice that there are flowers on your side of the path, but not on the other pot’s side?’
‘That’s because I have always known about your flaw, so I planted flower seeds on your side of the path, and every day while we walk back, you water them.’
For two years I have been able to pick these beautiful flowers to decorate the table.
Without you being just the way you are, there would not be this beauty to grace the house.’
INSIGHTS
Each of us has our own unique flaw. But it’s the cracks and flaws we each have that make our lives so very interesting and rewarding.
You’ve just got to take each person for what they are and look for the good in them.
SO, to all of my cracked pot, dear friends, have a great time and remember to smell the flowers on your side of your crack paths. I love this – I hope you do too.

A man was sleeping at night in his cabin when suddenly his room filled with light, and the Savior appeared. The Lord told the man he had work for him to do and showed him a large rock in front of his cabin. The Lord explained that the man was to push against the rock with all his might. This the man did,
day after day. For many years he toiled from sun up to sun down, his shoulders set squarely against the cold, massive surface of the unmoving rock, just pushing
with all his might.
“No, I can remember it.”
She stares at the plate for a moment and says… “Where’s my toast?
