Fable from my Childhood

There once were two jugs that belonged to an old woman. the left jug was round and solid, and the right jug round but cracked. every morning this old women would walk down to her water well and filled up her two jugs up; and every morning the right jug would leak all its water on the trek back. one day the right jug asked "Why don't you just throw me away? Do you know i cant hold any water? I have no purpose." the old lady smiled and replied "i know you have a that hole because i made you that way, why do you think i was able to plant all my beautiful flowers on the edge of the path which you water every day."
