The document tells a story using three pots as metaphors for how people can respond to difficulties in life. The first pot contains carrots that soften when boiled, representing people who become weak when facing problems. The second pot holds eggs that harden inside when boiled, symbolizing people who become bitter and hardened. The third pot contains coffee beans that change the water, depicting people who use challenges to improve themselves and their impact on others. The moral is that when difficulties arise, people should strive to grow stronger rather than weaker or more cynical, embracing challenges as opportunities.
