Once upon a time, in a village named Lakshmipuram, which was situated at the foothills of Silkster mountain, there lived a poor man. He was very poor. One day he was roaming here and there. On the way he saw another man, whom he had not ever seen before. May be because surprised at his strange looks, the other said, “Hello! myself is Shahezo.” The poor mans said, “I’m Balasree.” They became very good friends.
They sat under a tree and Balasree shared all his woes to Shahezo. At last Shahezo asked him if he would like to become a king. To the excitement of Balasree, Shahezo told him that he is actually a king of the neighbouring country and he is on a journey in disguise. Shahazo also told him that he is in search of life experiences and he is only glad to exchange his status with that of the poor man.
In mutual agreement, both exchanged their roles. They also had promised to meet at the same place after a week.
Shahezo gave the poor man his belongings which he had been carrying along with. It contained his crown and official seals too. With a heart full off joy, the poor man ran to the other country which was not that away.
However, after a week, both met at the same place.
When asked, Balasree told Shihazo that it is too hard a status and earlier he was so free. Shihazo told Balasree that his experience also was not that good. Sleeping in an open shed was not his real problem but sitting all the day doing nothing was heavily boring.
Gladly they exchanged their status again. The king continued his journey and the poor man went on begging happily.
Moral: Be happy where you are and with what you have.
