A warm greeting to all the readers of this topic section, which I am honored to write. Beforehand I wish to clarify the story or story that I am going to tell you. It is not my inspiration. I have listened to it since my childhood in my home so I have not been able to know who the author is so I became interested in the moment since I heard it and it has helped me in my life in a certain way that is why I want to tell you too ...
The three golden tips ...
In a distant time, in a small town in ancient Europe; a young married couple lived and as it used to happen at that time, bad times were also coming, times of scarcity the man burdened by his situation had a newborn son the man worked so hard at work to make the land produce, the little that they had around From his house he did not have enough harvest to live on and time passed and he did not achieve much. The situation was bad in the region. Many emigrated to distant places but he thought of his little son who was just beginning to walk and my wife.
I don't know anyone there and his concern was growing. He didn't know what to do. This year it hadn't rained either, they continued to live in the same house.
One day two of his friends came to look for him and found him in the field, where he prepared the land in case it rained; and they proposed to emigrate to a very distant place where he could find a job and if the three of them left together they would take care of each other. They encouraged him and agreed to leave together and agreed on the departure date together and they went to prepare for the trip and the man went to tell his wife about the decision he had made. He said, wait for me, I'll come back for you, I don't know how long it will take to come back for you and see my son.
Friends met and set out on their way, they advanced through many places, the place was very lay, and they arrived exhausted and tired. In that place lived a king who had a lot of property, land and was very wealthy, and they went to the king to apply for a job and the king answered them. You can work as long as you want, here you will have all the comforts if you work honestly and the king continued saying that I will pay you for the time you work in this place but when you decide to leave and I will not pay you before and that way they lived together working for him. the king. And everything was good there. They felt to taste and comfort. He spent a long time working for the king and then there he remembered his family after 18 years had passed. And the man said: I have to go back to my house I have spent enough time working for the king, I have already made money with all the time I have.
He requested to speak to the king and expressed the desire to retire and the king replied: you have already worked for me for many years, so I want you to listen to something I have to offer you (I pay with gold or with three golden tips). you have to decide? He stopped to think for a moment and then the king said: think and tomorrow he will answer me. Do not rush in your decision, the man withdraws from the presence of the king.
Throughout the night he could not fall asleep, thinking what would be the right decision, will I come home without money, will I take my wife and son to him? But he asked himself a thousand questions and could not understand and did not know what decision to make.
The next day he appeared before the king and as soon as the king saw him, he asked him: what is your decision son and he answers: your majesty, I have not been able to sleep all night thinking what decision I should make about what has happened to me. proposed, because no one has ever paid me with advice of gold that is why I ask the king: will this advice of gold serve me, will it be of benefit to me?
Do you think that I reach my family with only advice that they will tell me? I worked all this time for advice only, tell me which decision is best for me? And the king replies: surely these tips will be useful to you, I attest that they are valuable. But decide if you want the gold or the gold tips. All the workers I have had I have proposed the same thing to you and the man answered him: his majesty accepted the three golden councils and the king replied: good choice son now listen carefully and look for you to write them down and keep them in your heart.
1 # tip: NEVER FORGET THE OLD FOR THE NEW.
2 # tip: NEVER ASK WHAT YOU DO NOT INTEREST.
3 # Tip: NEVER GO LIGHTWEIGHT.
After the man has written all the advice, he says goodbye to the king and the king tells him to tell his friends that his gold is counted that they can withdraw it. They did not accept the golden advice!
Your majesty, here I say goodbye, I retire, they caught up with me later on the road and he retired, As many years had passed, things were not the same as before. When leaving, you will find an old path that was not perceived very well because I did not walk with that path. And on the other side you could see the new road that was very busy. And he remembered the first advice: (never forget the old for the new). And he went along the old road, which was where he arrived and his friends who were carrying the gold left and went along the new road, seeing that that road was shorter.
The man observes that his friends, a short distance from him, were robbed by some thieves who were on the road and when robbed they shouted for help and the man could hear the screams of his friends because the old road was parallel to a very short distance of the new one and he climbs a small mountain and could see that his friends were dead.
Sad for his friends he continued on his way all day. As night fell with little dystocia, a mosque observed an old house that was near the road and went to it and knocked on the door and called to see if there was someone in the house. And a man comes out of the house with a face of few friends, and the man tells him that he comes from far away and that he had been walking for a long time. I ask you please to let me perch alone for tonight because I fear that some animal may harm me. The owner replies: come on friend, I am preparing dinner, I will share the table with you, the man responds: I am grateful for your help and again the owner replies: sit at the table friend, and the man sits down and observes that there is a woman totally naked and tied to the table. The owner tells him: I put the whole bone under the table.
The man instantly remembered the second golden tip (don't ask what doesn't interest you). And sedating both at the end of the Seine, the owner gives the man a key and told him to free that woman and the man immediately frees her and does not ask anything, the owner of the house speaks to the woman: go and clean yourself and dress beautiful and come with us to celebrate your freedom; the owner tells the woman: you know that was the agreement between the two. The owner tells the man that the woman was unfaithful and that is why I chained her to the table and told her that the day a person arrived and did not ask about the condemnation, I would free her and forgive her. That day has come! And when he returned, the woman, already dressed and arranged, sat at the table with them and the man was astonished by what he had witnessed and giving grace to the king for the golden advice.
And telling the owner that he had a desire to rest because tomorrow he had to continue the road, and waking you up in the morning the man once again thanks him for his hospitality, I have to continue my way and the owner replies: friend, join us for breakfast and then continue on your way, and the man sat at the table and the woman served them. At the end of breakfast the man gives the owner thanks and telling him that he should continue on his way and the owner tells him for the last time to see him, accompany me to a place and I take him to the barn of the house and the owner of the house offers him a horse that He had in his barn, so that the road is not so long come and choose a saddle for his horse and the man accepted the offer of the owner he takes the horse and the saddle.
The owner preparing another horse filled it with gold, valuable things and food for the road and giving him all this stuff and telling the man, friend, when I discovered that my wife was unfaithful to me, I killed the intruder and condemned her to a miserable life. And I told her that everyone who asked me why she was tied to the table and I killed everyone who asked me and took everything I was carrying and that way I have had all this, but you arrived and I did not ask anything.
He gave grace to the owner of the house and seeing all the time that the owner of the house had given him. He thought that it was much more than what the king would give him, and mounted on his horse he continued on his way and once again giving grace to the king, he had nothing and now I am riding a horse and I am taking things home.
When the man saw that he was already doing it to the place where he lives, his heart jumped for joy because he would see his wife and son and hurrying his horse when he saw that he was already near his house and when he saw that his wife was hugging a man And when he saw he asked, he was deceived, he looked for another man and getting angry the man yelled at the man who was hugging his wife but at that very moment he remembered the third hour advice that the king had given him (do not take the things to lightly).
And the man approaching his wife told him: your father son has returned and the man with a tear tells his wife: that he thought he was cheating on him and his wife answers him: here the day you were fused you said that he would return and I believed you and that's what I've done all this time wait for you. And the man prepared a banquet for his return and his son ...
In all this time, these three tips have served me a lot but you know the greatest advice is to seek God, whatever happens, he will always be present in our life and although many storms come, he will be there to help you at all times ...
