Failures are but pillars of success

Robert Bruce,king of Scotland,fought several battles to regain his country's freedom but was each time defeated.Naturally he was very sad.One day sitting up in his hiding place.he was brooding over his misfortune.Suddenly he noticed a spider trying to reach the ceiling with the help of its silken thread to complete the cobweb.The spider tried again and again to go up but dropped downevery time.Six attempts made by the spider failed one after another.But still it did not give up the struggle and went on trying.Bruce observed the spider with keen interest and saw that the seventh attempt of the spider succeded.The persevrance of the spider encouraged Bruce.He saw a ray of ope.Filled with new hope he brought together his scattered forces and faced his enemies once more with renewed energy.This time he prevailed over his enemies and succeded in defeating them.
