Two brothers decided to dig a deep hole behind their house. As they were working, some older boys stopped by to watch.

“What are you doing?” asked one of the boys.

“We plan to dig a hole all the way through the earth!” one of the brothers answered excitedly.

The older boy began to laugh, telling the younger ones that digging a hole all the way through the earth was impossible. After a long silence, one of the diggers picked up a jar full of spiders, worms and insects. He showed it to the boys who were laughing at them. Then he said quietly and confidently, “ Even if we don’t dig all the way through the earth, look at what we found along the way!”

Their goal was far too difficult, but it made them dig. And that is what a goal is for---to make us move in the direction we have chosen. In other words, it sets us digging!

But not every goal will be fully achieved. Not every job will end successful. Not every hope will come to pass. Not every love will last. But you will find something wonderful that has come into your life because you try to do something. So please believe it is the joy in the journey that truly matters.
