About This Quote

A common rock is a pebble that has been worn down by the sea. It is not strong enough to hold its own weight, so it is tossed aside and washed away. In this case, the rock was not strong enough to withstand the waves of the ocean, so it was removed from its place on the beach. This story shows how important it is to have a strong foundation in life.

As a person grows older, new challenges will arise and they will need to be able to stand up and fight through these challenges. It also shows that some people are stronger than others because they can avoid danger while some other people are no match for it.
