Once upon a time, there lived a kind hearted man. After he died, he ascend into the heavens and became an angel. After becoming an angel, he often comes down to earth and help thosetoattain happiness.
Once, he met a farmer who was sulking. He told the angel that his bull just died and he couldn't plough thefields. The angel gave the farmer a healthy bull. The farmer was very happy and the angel could feel his happiness.
Another time, he met a young man who was despondent. He told the angel that he was robbed of his money and couldn't travelto hishometown. The angel gave him some money. The young man was very happy and the angel could feel his happiness.
This time, the angel met a poet. He was young, handsome and full of talent. He was also rich. His wife was pretty and gentle. But he declared he wasn't happy. The angel asked, "You aren't happy. How can I help you?" The poet replied, "I have everything. But I lack only one thing. Canyougive it to me?" To which the angel happily said, "Sure. I can give you anything youdesired. "The poet stared right into the angel's eyes, "I want happiness."" All right," the angel nodded. And the angel proceed to take away everything the poet possessed. The angel took away the poet's talent, destroyed his looks, robbed hisriches and killed his wife. The angel then left for heaven.
A month later, the angel appeared in front of the poet. The poet was lying on the ground, half dead, hungry and struggling forsurvival. The angel then returned him everything he once possessed and left forheavenagain.
Two weeks later, the angel paid a visit to the poet. This time, the poet, together with his wife, thanked the angelprofusely. He finally found happiness.
Often, a person need to lose everything before he know how tocherish.
Actually, happiness is right in front of you. Just what is happiness? When you are hungry, a bowl of hot noodle in front of you ishappiness. When you are tired, a soft bed is happiness. When you are crying, a gentle tissue is happiness.
