愚公移山
Once upon a time， there was a large mountain called Tai-Ying which sat between Old Man Yu and the nearest village. Every day， Old Man Yu had to walk many extra miles in order to circle around Tai-Ying， and finally he decided to simply move the mountain out of his way.
Old Man Yu called together his children and grandchildren. “I am going to move Tai-Ying.”
The family cheered.
The youngest stood and asked where the moutain could be moved.
Old Man Yu thought for a second. “I will dump it in the sea.”
Again the family cheered， and promised to help make his dream a reality.
Now， as everyone knows， it is no small matter to move a mountain， and this mountain was no exception. After a year， only a tiny portion of Tai-Ying had been carted to the sea.
A shopkeeper in the village laughed at Old Man Yu. “Your dream is foolish. You are old， and Tai-Ying is monstrous.”
Old Man Yu shook his head and smiled. “You are right， but your vision is short. I have children who have children who will bear more children. As time goes on， I get stronger and the mountain grows weaker. Tai-Ying will be moved.”
And so it was.
