Value of Painting or Hard work



It's a story of Hard work and it’s Value of Picasso, a very famous painter born in Spain.


One day when Picasso was walking through a road, a woman who was passing by the same road saw Picasso. She recognized him and ran to him.


She said to him, “I'm a big fan of yours. I like your paintings very much.. Please will you make me a painting too..??”


Picasso smiled at request and said, “I have nothing to paint. I am empty handed here. I will make you a painting some other time..”


The Woman replied, “I don’t know if i will be able to meet you again or not.. Please make me a painting now..”


On being insisted so much by women Picasso took out a small piece of paper and pen out of his pocket and began to make something on that paper.


Within 10 seconds Picasso completed drawing, handed that paper to that woman and said, “Take this, it's a million dollar painting..”


Women find it strange that he can make a complete drawing within 10 seconds and is saying that it would value a million dollar painting.


The Woman thanked him and took that painting with her. After she reached home she thought that maybe Picasso was joking about the value of that drawing he made for her.


So, she went to the market to find out about the right value of painting. She was surprised to know that that drawing was actually worth a million dollars.


After that women again got a chance to meet Picasso. She was very excited to see him. She went to him and said, “Sir, you were right that the drawing you made was worth a million dollars.”


She continued, “Sir, please make me your student. Please teach me how to paint so that I am able to paint like you made a million dollar painting in such a small time.”


Picasso smiled and said, “Dear, this drawing which I made in 10 sec, it is worth a million dollars. this value is of 30 yrs of my life i gave to Hard work, struggle and dedication towards learning arts..!!


If you want to do this.. Give your life to this and you will also be able to make paintings like this..”


The Woman was speechless.


Moral: When we see others successful we think that they got it easy.. what we don’t realize is the hard work and time hidden behind that success..


Nobody sees Hard work and Patience. Everyone sees only success but they don’t see that one has to sacrifice life in preparation and to achieve that success. Success seeks experience and struggle.

Mama Coon Coon: A Louisiana Swamp Folktale

  Now I’ll just bet that none of you have ever heard the story of Mama Coon Coon and the blue waters of the bayou, have you? Well, we know the story, and I think we need to tell it to you right now. Once upon a time, the waters of the bayou were black – as black as ink. Now, even though these waters were black, they were still filled with lots and lots of fishes, shrimp and crab. And all of the fishermen would wake up early in the morning, long before the sun had even come above the horizon, and they would cast their nets down into the deep, black water. And what a wonderful sight it was at the end of the day to watch those fishermen pulling in their nets overflowing with all kinds of fishes, shrimp and crab. Dulac Louisiana Bayou by  Clem . Licensed under  CC BY-SA 2.0 . Now all the fishermen fished early in the morning, with the exception of one fisherman – or should I say fisherwoman. Her name was Mama Coon Coon. You see, that is the name the local village children gav...

Mud: Tennessee Ghost Story

  Tennessee ghost story of a killer who encounters a strange old man along a dark road after burying his victim. What does this old man know about his crime? Find out in this short story by Andy Hinton. Although the walk should have been easier without the load, the adrenaline and whisky that had fuelled Jason earlier in the night is exhausted, and what energy remains is being used to shiver himself warm. As a result, it takes him half an hour to get back to the car. But time is relative, for what is half an hour in a night that never ends. Jason leans the shovel against the trunk and reaches into his right pocket for the keys; finding none, he goes to his left pocket and digs deeper. Then he runs both hands through all his pockets and rechecks them again. “Damn it.” Jason kicks the car, but the sound is muffled by the storm. He is angry enough, cold and worn out enough, to break a window, but he knows he needs the keys to drive home if he is ever to be done with this dreadful...

McDow Hole – Anatomy Of A Texas Ghost Story

  Spooky Texas legend of the McDow Hole, where ghost sightings of pioneer woman Jenny Papworth and her baby have long been reported.  Written by Bob Hopkins . I first heard the legendary tale of the Ghost of the McDow Hole in the fifteenth year of my youth. It was near Halloween in October 1975 when a friend related the tale of the ghost that haunts a creek bed in rural Erath County and naturally I believed every word of it in the twilight of an evening spent with friends telling ghost stories. I would again hear the tale over the years while living in North Central Texas. It wasn’t until my chance encounter of meeting an author of the legend in 2002 that my curiosity began to peak and like any good investigator I felt it my duty to dig deeper into the hundred year old tale of pioneer folklore to see how much of the story was true and how much was fabricated. I would discover many similarities in fact and fiction that I believed would leave any reader with the same curiosity t...
