Where there is will

Once upon a time, there lived a farmer with great ambitions in a small village of Meghalaya. He wanted to grow Pineapples & Lemons but he was landless and had no money to buy a suitable plot. But instead of giving up, he innovated his way out of it.

On a vacant rocky patch of land, he created some pockets or heaps of compost and planted seeds in then. For lemons he used banana leafs surrounded by compost which provided enough water for the seeds to survive. The idea worked and gave him a viable source of livelihood. 

But this is not just about the cute little innovation he did there. This is about not accepting defeat. This is about perseverance. This is about having an unshakable will. And where there is a will, there are Pineapples!
