MORAL for your life

There once lived a great
mathematician in a village. He
was often called by the local
king to advice on matters
related to the economy. Once a village headman told
him,
"You may be a great
mathematician who advises
the king on economic matters
but your son does not know the value of gold or silver." The
mathematician called his
son and asked,
"What is more valuable - gold or
silver?"
"Gold," said the son. "That is correct. Why is it then
that the village headman
makes fun of you, claims you do
not know the value of gold or
silver?"
asked father. "Every day on my way to
school, the village headman
calls me to his house. There, in
front of all village elders, he
holds out a silver coin in one
hand and a gold coin in other. He asks me to pick up the more
valuable coin. I pick the silver
coin. He laughs, the elders jeer,
and everyone makes fun of me.
And then I go to school."
Said son. "Why don't you pick up the gold
coin?"
he asked. "The day I pick up the gold coin
the game will stop. They will
stop having fun and I will stop
making money."
son said. Moral:
Sometimes in life, we have to
play the fool because our
seniors and our peers, and
sometimes even our juniors like
it..! That does not mean we lose in the game of life. It just
means allowing others to win
in one arena of the game, while
we win in the other arena of
the game.
