One day Mulla Nasruddin went to market and bought a bushel of peppers. He took them home and began to eat them, one by one. An hour later some of his disciples passed by his house and found their master sitting in his kitchen, still eating the peppers, with tears streaming down his face.
"Mulla !", they cried, "What are you doing ? Why are you eating those peppers ?"
Nasruddin replied : "I'm looking for the sweet one."
This is what people do in life - whether in relationships, place, or work. People are always looking for the sweet one.
Of course, there are no sweet peppers. All peppers are hot and spicy, and just waste the time for keep eating and eating, hoping to find the sweet peppers in life.
