    A King and his Four Wives


    One there was a rich king with four wives. He loved his fourth wife so much and
    always he was providing her with good food and expensive dress. This woman
    always had everything at its best. The king also loved his third wife. And he
    always wanted her by his side. But he afraid that by the sake of his third wife he
    will lose his other wives. The king also loved his second wife, because she was a
    kind woman, whenever the king was facing with problems she was motivating the
    king to handle it. The first wife of king was a great partner of him in protecting his
    kingdom. But the king didn’t love her and nor care about her. Yet his wife loved
    him so much.
    One day the king fall sick and he thought that he on the edge of grave, he went to
    his fourth wife and said “ I used to love you so much and I provided you with the
    best dress and good food now that I am sick would you come with me?” she
    replied “ by no way”. Without saying any word she went, her response was as
    threatening as to be bitten by sword to the king. The king sadly asked his third wife
    “I loved you all my life and still I love you a lot, I am sick will you come to know
    my condition? She said “no way” life is beautiful when you die I will remarry and
    enjoy my life. The king disappointingly went to his second wife and asked her “I
    always needed your help and you were helping me while I was in trouble, now that
    I am sick would you come and live with me”.
    The second wife of the king relied” I am sorry I can’t help you now, but what I can
    is to help you get to the grave”. This response was as sharp as the sound of thunder
    and lighting and it disappeared or dismantled the king. During the sound the king
    said “I will always be with you wherever you go” the king looked and saw his first
    wife she was thin and was suffering from malnutrition. The kind embarrassingly
    said “I had to care about you so much and I had to do everything for you I am
    sorry…..” In fact we all have four wives in our life. Our fourth wife is our body.
    No matter what we have done for living a calm life whenever we die it will leave
    us alone. Our third wife is our property, when we die all the property will be
    granted to someone else. Our second wife is our friends and family, it is not
    important how dear they were to us the best they can do is to help us get to the
    grave. But our first wife is our breath, while we work hard to get rich and earn
    money we forget that, breath is something that is always there wherever we go.
    Take care of your breath, try to strengthen it because it the best gift of richness.
