True Master !

One fine morning, the king was going for walk with his ministers. On his way he saw a young boy playing in the mud. The king ordered his soldiers to bring that boy to him.

The soldiers followed the orders and escorted that boy to the king.The king asked the boy .

KING: Why are you playing in the mud, you seem to be educated, then why are you spoiling your clothes?

The boy smiled and said, your Majesty, I am playing in the mud because I am made up of this mud. And after I die, I will again turn into this mud.

The king was amazed & surprised with the young boy’s answer.

The minister went to the king and whispered in his ear, “Your Majesty, I think this boy is very intelligent and learned, why not make him our advisor, since we need one.

The king was convinced by his ministers words and thought this boy would be the perfect advisor for him.

The king asked the boy, will you became my chief advisor?  I will give you a lot of money, power and everything you want.

The boy just smiled at the king’s comment, and said politely. Your Majesty, I’ll love to be your advisor, your servant but, I have 4 wishes, If you fulfill those 4 wishes then I’ll definitely be your advisor.

The king agreed without thinking and asked the boy to name his wishes. The boy started with his first wish.

Your Majesty my first condition is that "Whatever dish I want to eat, you’ll provide me, but you will not eat it yourself”.

Boy then said, my second condition is “You will give me all expensive clothes to wear but you will not wear them yourself”

Boy continued, my third condition is “When ever we go for a walk I’ll not follow you but we should walk together”

The boy then presented his last condition. “Whenever I sleep you will look after me, but I will not look after you”.

After hearing all the condition the king was surprised and said what nonsense is this.I’m the King, I can give you all the delicious dishes you wish to eat but I will also eat them, I can give you all the expensive clothes but I’ll also wear them, I’m the King so whenever we go for a walk you should follow me, why should I walk with you. And whenever I sleep you should look after me why should I.

The boy smiled at that & said, sorry your Majesty you cannot fulfill my 4 wishes how can I became your servant and you cannot be my  Master.

My TRUE MASTER can only be my BOSS. He gives me everything I want to eat but He Himself doesn’t ask for them. He gives me all the clothes I want to wear but He doesn’t want them back. Whenever I go He is always with me, looking after me and whenever I sleep He always take care of me, but He never asks the same from me in return.

So this way only HE & He alone can be my BOSS and my Master.

After hearing the boy’s words, the King fell at the boy’s feet  and Said, "Please become my advisor and teach me how to live a good life and I'll follow that.
