There was once a king who loved graceful cats very much. He asked the court artist to paint a picture of a cat for him. For one year he waited and still the artist didn’t bring him the picture. In a rage, the king ran into the artist’s studio and wanted to see the artist. Quickly the artist brought paper, paints, and brushes. In five minutes a perfect picture of a cat appeared from his wonderful brush.The king got purple with anger and said, “If you can paint a perfect picture of a cat in five minutes, why did you keep me waiting for over a year?”“Come with me,” asked the artist.
