Once upon a time, there was a small
town. There lived a man by himself who couldn’t see. He was blind. Yet, he
carried a lighted lamp with him whenever he went out at night.
One night
as he was coming home after having a dinner outside, he came across a group of
young travelers.
They saw
that he was blind, yet carrying a lighted lamp. They started passing comments
on him and made a fun of him. One of them asked him, “Hey Man! You are blind
and can’t see anything! Why do you carry the lamp then?!”
The blind man replied, “Yes, unfortunately, I am blind and I
can’t see anything but a lighted lamp which I am carrying is for the people
like you who can see. You may not see the blind man coming and end up pushing
me. That is why I carry a lighted lamp”.
The group of travelers felt ashamed and apologized for their
behavior.
Moral: We should think before
judging others. Always be polite and learn to see things from others point of
view.
