Farmers’ Adage

Even the finest wheat still has chaff.

A bad farmer lets his fields lie fallow because he doesn’t want to deal with the chaff.

A good farmer learns to separate the wheat from the chaff.

A better farmer celebrates every aspect of the harvest: producing bread for his family from the wheat grains, bedding for his livestock from the wheatstraw, and compost for his soil from the wheat chaff.

Find the lesson in every experience, and life will reward you richly.
