“185th story”
First published: April.01.2021
The king of a territory heard that two of his three ministers were careless, lazy, and cheaters.
The king wanted to find out which one of his ministers was loyal, to keep for the king’s right-hand man and dismiss the other two.
The king called all his three ministers gave them three big empty bags, and said:
“Tomorrow you will go to my gardens and fill up your bags with excellent fresh fruits for me, without getting any help from others.”
The next day, three ministers went to the gardens separately.
The first minister filled up the bag with the best and fresh fruits from the garden.
The second minister thought to himself, the king would never eat fruits from this bag and picked fruits carelessly, some raw, some wasted ones from the ground; and filled the sack.
The third minister filled up his bag with weeds, twigs, and dirt and knew that the king would never even open the bag.
After their sacks were full they went to see the King.
The king asked his soldiers to put each minister in jail separately for two weeks.
And said: “The only thing they can have with them for those two weeks will be their bags. My right-hand man will survive the two weeks with whatever is in his bag.”
Fabulous story!
Thanks for reading dear, appreciate your comment.❤️
bonita historia, que demuestra lo fácil que sería aplicando la lógica y el ingenio, evitar tanta corrupción como existe hoy en día.

Thanks dear for sharing your thoughts.🌺
Imagine a world where we all did things to/for others as if we were doing it to/for ourselves.
Exactly. It would be heaven. Thanks dear.❤️
