The day I reached Manjung from Singapore was a hot day indeed. By mid-day it was scorching and when I saw an ice-cream man peddling outside my gate I called out to him. When selecting the ice-cream of my choice, I complained to him that the day was mighty hot and I felt tired because of it.
Well, the man told me that one should also take advantage of such a hot day by putting out the clothes to dry. He said that they'd dry in no time. I had put a load of clothes in the washing machine and had intended them to dry them at the back but when I heard what he said I took all the wet clothes and put them outside to dry. True enough, all the clothes were dried within a few hours.
The moral of the story is that we should try to look at the positive side of a situation. For the ice-cream man such a type of day is a blessing as he gets to sell more ice-cream.
