Once there was a very clever minister in a king's court. this minister had a solution for every problem and the king did not make any big decision without asking him. because of this other people in the court were jealous of the minister. one day the king told the minister you are very smart but your little brother is very foolish and has no sense. the minister did not like this and asked you majesty why are you saying this, when do you think my little brother is foolish, the king said every morning when I go to meet the people your son is there. I ask him every day what is more valuable gold and silver and every time your little brother says silver. hearing this everyone in the court started laughing and the minister felt bad. without saying anything he went straight home and asked his little brother which metal is more valuable gold and silver, the son quickly replied father gold. the minister then asked if you know that gold is valuable why do you give the king the wrong answer every day and say silver is a more valuable, the little brother replied father every morning the king comes to the market to meet the people, every day he calls me places two coins is front of me one silver and one gold and ask me take the more valuable one. I pick the silver coin and the king laughs and goes away. the minister then asked his little brother why do you pick the silver coin every day, today because of this the whole court made fun of me, hearing this the little brother took his big brother to his room and opened a box. the box was full of silver coins. seeing so many silver coins the minister was surprised and asked how did you get so many silver coins, the little brother replied big brother these are the coins that's the king giving me. the day I give the king the wright answer and take the gold coin,he will stop asking me this question and I will stop getting a silver coin. when i pick the silver coin and say that silver is more valuable than gold he laughs and goes away without thinking too much. I don't want to lose my daily silver coin for one gold coin, hearing this the minister felt proud of his little brother foolish his little brother wisdom was something, that only a wise person could understand. now whenever anyone called his little brother foolish the minister would smile and leave.
Moral of the story
You may have noticed that some people do a little work and make a big show of it while others do great things without showing off. if you know that what you're doing is right then it doesn't matter if people call you foolish and crazy. the world often calls those it doesn't understand crazy.
Thank you.......
