Happiness in
poverty and unhappiness in riches.
Once upon a time the saints used to walk on earth . there lived this small couples who
used to lived in ancient Greek .they
were very welcoming and they could share whatever small meal that they had with
strangers . one day an old man
visited there homestead and as
usual the lady went to their store and removed the small
meal that was left for that day .
The man had gone to hunt so the wife was left alone in the
house to do all the chores . the man was served with
delicious meal and he was very grateful
for that and as a results he
decided to give her a reward in return .
they were given three wishes . the woman was very happy when she heard the good news and at once she
wished that the husband was there ,
immediately her husband appeared .
The man was very
shocked since his memories reminded him that he
had not finished what he was doing in the field s . the wife
informed her husband
what was happening and
immediately the man got very
furious because the wife wasted the first wish .
he immediately wished that the
ears of the wife changed to that
of a donkey . his wish was granted to him and her ears
grew very big . the woman
touched her ears and she started
crying ,on seeing that the man knelled down and
holded her wife tight .he pronounced his last wish and hoped that
the wife ‘s ears got back to
normal . immediately she recovered
. they both raised up and hugged
each other . the saint reminded
them that there can be happiness even without
wealth and riches
because even if the man could have
asked for big things as his last wish he could not have enjoyed seeing the
condition of the wife they were blessed with a child soon after that they lived happily there after.is a good thing to control our feelings and emotions , learn to forgive and above all love .
