DON'T CHANGE THE WORLD

in #world7 years ago (edited)

Once upon a time, there was a king who ruled a prosperous country. One day, he went for a trip to some distant areas of his country. When he was back to his palace, he complained that his feet were very painful, because it was the first time that he went for such a long trip, and the road that he went through was very rough and stony. He then ordered his people to cover every road of the entire country with leather.

Definitely, this would need thousands of cows’ skin, and would cost a huge amount of money. Then one of his wise servants dared himself to tell the king, “Why do you have to spend that unnecessary amount of money? Why don’t you just cut a little piece of leather to cover your feet?”
The king was surprised, but he later agreed to his suggestion, to make a “shoe” for himself. There is actually a valuable lesson of life in this story: to make this world a happy place to live, you better change yourself - your heart; and not the world.

Yes, valuable change occurs within first and then it protrudes into our atmosphere. As they say as above so below...also as within so without. A reflection is who we are of our soul. Travel is ease and so shall the world around us. Maybe not the entire but continue to paint the rainbow of love.

Thanks for the share

You are welcome

Sometimes we should think about others and take care of them , because we are human .
If everyone think about his/herself poor become poorer and rich become richer as today we see this process .😌
