A COUNTRY IS DEVELOPED OR DESTROYED BY ITS PEOPLE.
A King called for a village feast and commanded that each villager in his domain came with a gourd of palm-wine and pour it in a giant pot at the entrance of the village which everyone would eventually drink from. When it was time to drink from the pot, everyone was surprised that it was water that was in the pot.
Why should they be surprised?
Apparently, everyone came with a gourd of water instead of palm-wine thinking that since it was one jug of water, it wouldn't be noticed.
The King pointed this fact out and the whole village was ashamed.
Society is the sum of US together not just leadership.
_Lessons:_
1. We are all drinking from what we contributed as a society.
2. Never think your actions are insignificant. Take personal responsibility... Maybe, just maybe, you'd inspire some others to take their own responsibilities seriously and would have more 'palm-wine' than 'water' in our society.
3. Stop complaining about the problems and what others are doing and be part of the solution in your country, family, church/mosque, street etc...
