This is the story of a wise and hardworking farmer. He took great care of his farm and grew the most delicious fruits.
What do you think, can a single decision make a big difference in life? Let’s discover what happened when this farmer had to make an important decision.
Once upon a time, there was a farmer who grew many kinds of fruits, but his grapes and watermelons were the best. He worked very hard to take care of these fruits. When the fruits were ready, the farmer decided to send a special gift to the king.
His wife thought that the grapes and watermelons were the best fruits that year, but the farmer knew watermelons were heavy, so he decided to take grapes instead for the long journey. He carefully picked the best bunch of grapes and placed them in a basket.
The farmer walked to the king’s palace with the basket of grapes.When he arrived, he told the palace guard that he had a gift for the king. The guard took him to the royal garden where the king and princess were playing.
The farmer quietly placed the basket of grapes in front of the king. When the king stopped playing, the guard gave him the grapes and said they were from the farmer. The king, still having fun, picked up a grape and threw it playfully at the farmer. He did this a couple of times, and each time the grape hit the farmer, he said, “Thank God!”
The king was surprised and asked the farmer why he kept saying thank you when the king was throwing grapes at him. The farmer smiled and explained, “I grew the best fruits this year. I could have brought watermelons, but they are very heavy. So, I am thankful that I chose grapes instead. I am happy that I made the right choice.”
The king understood the farmer’s wise words and saw how grateful he was for his decision.
