A boy was cycling with a basket of eggs on it.
He hit a stone and fell down along with the cycle.
. . . The eggs also fell down and broke. A crowd gathered around the boy.
. . . As usual free advice started flowing from the on lookers “Couldn’t you be more careful?” “What is this, you are cycling , casually without attention?”
. . . An old man approached the crowd , saw what had happened and said “Poor fellow this boy has to answer the Owner of the shop . Ok I will help him , as much as I can”
…… saying this handed over Rs10/- to the boy. And also said “These onlookers are good people, they will not only give advice, they will help you by giving money also, accept their help”
. . . The onlookers observing the sayings of the old man and his actions , gave money to the boy
. . . The boy was very happy, since the money collected was more than the value of the eggs broken
. . . One of the onlooker asked the boy “young man if that old man was not around , I do not know what difficulties you would have faced with your owner”
. . . The boy smiled and replied “Sir ,that old man is the owner of the shop , where I work”
. . Clever owner 🙂 🙂
