In the meantime, do not produce any bamboo seeds. But I do not give up. In the second year, the fern grew more and more fertile, but there also has not emerged from the bamboo seed. But I do not give up. In the third year, yet also reveals the bamboo seed something. But I do not give up. In the 4th, still do not have any from the bamboo seed. I do not give up, "He said.

"In its fifth year, showing a small bud. Compared with the tree ferns, buds that looked small and not significant. But six months later the bamboo rose to 100 feet. To grow the roots that need a period of 5 years. This makes a strong bamboo roots and bamboo to give what it takes to survive. I'm not going to give the trials could not overcome my creations, "said God told him.

"I tell you, my child, in the face of all difficulties and struggles of this weight, you actually grow roots? I did not leave the bamboo. I also will not leave. Do not compare yourself with others, "said God.
