THE SAME WATER THAT SOFTENS THE POTATO HARDENS THE EGG

By Vernalee

The saying, The Same Water that softens the potato hardens the egg is a proverb that highlights “ how different individuals or situations can respond in vastly different ways to the same external forces or circumstances. One’s internal composition or character determines the outcome, not the external pressure itself.” Like the egg, some people may harden (or become stronger) while others may soften (or become weaker) like the potato - given the situation. Everyone is different..So stop comparing yourself to how others react or handle matters.Just be yourself! Handle things the best way for you …which is usually the best!
