    An Old Man in the Village

    An old man lived in the village. He was one of the most unfortunate

    people in the world. The whole village was tired of him; he was

    always gloomy, he constantly complained and was always in a bad

    mood.

    The longer he lived, the more bile he was becoming and the more

    poisonous were his words. People avoided him because his

    misfortune became contagious. It was even unnatural and insulting

    to be happy next to him.


    He created the feeling of unhappiness in others.


    But one day, when he turned eighty years old, an incredible thing

    happened. Instantly everyone started hearing the rumour that the

    Old Man had become happy, he doesn’t complain about anything

    anymore, always smiles, and even his face is freshened up.


    The whole village gathered together. The villagers asked the old

    man about what happened.


    He answers, “Nothing special. Eighty years I’ve been chasing

    happiness, and it was useless. And then I decided to live without

    happiness and just enjoy life. That’s why I’m happy now.”

    Moral of the story: Jangan mengejar kebahagiaan. Nikmatilah

    hidupmu.
