Pāhonoa te oro

A farmer had two pots to carry water. One pot was perfect, but the other had a crack and leaked water every day. The cracked pot felt ashamed and said, “I am useless because I lose water.” The farmer smiled and replied, “Look at the path we walk on.” The cracked pot saw beautiful flowers blooming along its side. The farmer said, “I planted seeds there, and your leaking water helped them grow.” Moral: Your weaknesses can create something beautiful.
