“A little boy was having difficulty lifting a heavy stone.
His father came along just then.
Noting the boy’s failing attempts, he asked, “Are you using all your strength?”
“Yes, I am,” the little boy said impatiently.
“No, you are not,” the father answered, “I am right here just waiting, & you haven’t asked me to help you.”
