Golden Eggs
Long time ago
a remote village, in central China was inhabited mainly with farmers and
hunters.
One day, a
poor farmer lost his entire livestock to flood. He prayed hard to Gos for help
or his family would die of starvation.
Few days
later, an old man with long grey beard, passed by his house took pity on him.
He gave him a goose and said “I don’t have any expensive thing to give youand
hope this goose will help you to ease you hardship.”
A week later
to almost a surpise that the farmer found and egg in his yard. This was no
ordinary egg. It was golden egg. He was suddenly overcome with joy.
Thereafter,
his livelihood had rapidly improved but the farmer had forgotten his earlier
hardship. He became lazy, arrogant and spendthrift.
Strangely, the
goose only laid one golden egg every six months. The greedy farmer lost his
patient and slaughtered his goose thinking there were plenty of golden eggs
inside its stomach.
Though he very
much regretted for his foolishness, it’s already too late.
