The more desires we have, the less likely we are to even satisfy all desires of them.Lượt xem: 35 Nguồn: Sưu tầm
A man was a good and obedient boy. His parents loved him very much.
However, Aman had one bad habit of eating too much sweets and chocolates. His mother always told him, "Aman, don't eat so many sweets. You will get toothaches."
His mother used to keep all the sweets in a glass jar that had a narrow mouth and a tight lid.
One day, when his mother went to the market, Aman saw that his father was asleep. He tiptoed to the kitchen and grabbed the jar filled with sweets. With great effort, he managed to open the tight lid and put his hand through the narrow mouth. A man clutched a fist full of sweets but when he tried to pull his hand out, it got stuck in the jar.
Aman's father had been awakened by the noise and ran down to the kitchen to see his son's situation. He said to Aman, "Son, you have picked up more sweets than your little hand can hold out of the jar. Try only picking up one sweet between two fingers and this way, you'll be able to pull your hand out easily. Remember, always take as much as you can handle".
Aman followed his father's words and pulled out his hand from the jar. From then on, Aman learned nerver to take more than he needed.
