The Chinese Bamboo Tree

The Chinese Bamboo tree starts from a tiny seed.  You plant the seed in dirt, and you water the seed.  The first year nothing seems to happen.  So the second year you water and fertilize and you protect the seed.  Nothing happens.  The third year you water and fertilize and you protect the seed.  Nothing happens.  The fourth year you water and fertilize and you protect the seed.  Nothing happens. 

The fifth year you water and fertilize and you protect the seed.  Sometime during the fifth year, the Chinese Bamboo tree begins to grow.  If grows 90 feet tall in just 6 weeks!  Yes, that's right, 90 feet in six weeks. 

The question is, did it grow 90 feet in six weeks or five years?  The answer is simple, it grew 90 feet in five years.  The moral of the story is also simple.  IF, during that five years, SOMEONE would have GIVEN UP on the Chinese Bamboo tree, IF SOMEONE would have stopped watering, stopped fertilizing, stopped protecting the tree, there would be no tree to climb.
