NOTHING IS MORE FRUSTRATING than being required to
do something beyond our ability. Those of us who call ourselves
Messies live daily with the reality of this problem. We want to keep
the house in order and beautiful. But many of us find it next to
impossible to do so.
There are many examples of this kind of problem, but perhaps
none illustrates the situation better than the story of Rum-
pelstiltskin.
The miller in the story had a shrewd and clever daughter and
boasted to the king that she could spin straw into gold. The king
loved gold, so he locked the girl into a room filled with straw and
ordered her to perform her miracle.
Rumpelstiltskin learned that the beautiful miller s daughter had
been asked to do the impossible, and he took advantage of the
situation. Appearing miraculously through the locked door, he
promised to spin the straw into gold if the girl would give him her
ring.
She agreed, knowing it was the only way she could save her life.
But the king was not satisfied with one roomful of gold. He
brought in another load of straw for the miller s daughter to
transform. Again Rumpelstiltskin appeared, this time demanding
the girl s necklace as payment.
