Once upon a time, a king wasn't happy in his palace. He wanted his unhappiness to be removed forever and called his priest and asked him to give him a remedy so that he will never be unhappy again. if he doesn't get the remedy then the priest will be killed. The priest gave a lot of thought. The wise priest said " If you sleep one night wearing the shirt of a happy man you will be happy again"... and off went the king's men in search of a happy man in his kingdom... They search and search everywhere but none said they were happy. At last they find a poor farmer sitting in the field and he said he is always happy. He has no worries. The poor farmer was produced in front of the king. King said i will pay you anything in return for a shirt. But the poor farmer said ... "My Lord if i had a shirt at home will be wearing one... but i am so poor that i don't even have a shirt to wear". King realized happiness cannot be bought ... neither it comes with possession of material riches .... either you have it or you don't ... its in you mind... That's one of the stories that taught me how to value things as a child... and not to mistake someone in a palace as happy and someone living in a cottage as unhappy ...
