Hello everyone!! We hope you all are doing great and perfectly alright!!
So, today through this beautiful post we'll be getting ourselves more known to actual humanity. As we all are human so as human, our first and utmost priority should be to kind and generous to our fellow human beings irrespective of our different situations in life.
We should never let our humility get banished at any cost because if it gets banished then calling ourselves "Human" wouldn't be appropriate anymore. But unfortunately, somehow we fail as a "Human" nowadays and that's need to stop before it gets too late!!
So, today we gonna get this beautiful life lesson through a beautiful small story.
Hey, Real Knowledge Seeker's!!
Once upon a time, a country was ruled by a king who had no son to succeed to the throne. Since the king was getting old, he wanted to select a suitable successor to rule the country.
The king sent out notices throughout his country. The notice has invited every qualified young man in the country for an interview with the king. The outcome of the interview would decide a possible "successor" to the throne. The only qualification for the candidate was that they should have immense love for their fellow human beings.
Every young man across the country was extremely excited at the possibility of being the ruler of the country. A poor young man from a remote village also read the notice and started to prepare for an interview with the king. The man was a kind, hardworking man but he was very poor due to various circumstances.
The man had no proper clothes to be presentable and appealing in the sight of the king. So, the young man worked really very hard and saved some money to buy him proper clothes and supplies to support him for the long journey to the palace.
The man had no proper clothes to be presentable and appealing in the sight of the king. So, the young man worked really very hard and saved some money to buy him proper clothes and supplies to support him for the long journey to the palace.
After he got his supplies and proper attire for the interview, the young man set out on his quest. He travelled for many days and had almost completed the journey.
While on the way to his interview, he came to meet a poor beggar by the side of the road. The poor beggar said trembling in the cold covered only in tattered rags. The beggar extended his arms and pleaded for help. His weak voice croaked, "I am hungry and feeling cold" Please help me, sir!
The young man was so moved by the pathetic condition of the beggar that he immediately stripped his new attire and offered it to him. He also provided him with the very limited food he had carried for the journey.
The bagger thanked the man a thousand times!! but since the man had given up his good clothes to the beggar, he was a bit hesitant to go for the interview. He, however, gathered enough courage to enter the palace in his old - dirty clothes.
Upon his arrival at the palace, the King's attendant showed him the way to the Great Hall after a short rest to clean off the journeys grime. The man was admitted to the throne room for the interview. The young man bowed low as the King entered the room.
When he raised his eyes he gasped in astonishment as he noticed that the King looked very similar to the beggar he had met on the way. The King saw the shock in the man's eye! and said yes "I was the beggar you met on your way".

"But why did you dress up like a beggar?" The young man asked.
"You are a king, well why did you do this to me?" The young man stammered.
After gaining some composure, because "I had to be sure that you had a good heart and you genuinely love your fellow human beings" said the king.
"I knew that if I came to you as a king, you would have done anything to impress me but that way I would never have known what is truly in your heart," King said. The generosity and love to the one in need without expecting anything in return is the sign of a great heart.

Looking at your love, generosity towards the beggar man proved that you sincerely love your fellow human beings.
This country needs a leader who would work for the welfare of all of the nation, not just the ones who would offer and cater to the throne. The young has proven that he is the right person to be King's successor. Thus, he became the successor due to kind and humble nature which is unfortunately rare to find nowadays.
You see, in life kindness is more important than wisdom and the recognition of this is the beginning of wisdom. A heart filled with compassion and love for our fellow human beings is the greatest gift we can give to the world.
A king in this land today might be rich and glamorous, might have the power and all but this kingdom is worthless compared to the rich heart of a beggar man.
So, at last, we just want to request our beautiful and intellectual viewers to spread love and peace with the sprinkle of humanity and kindness in it.
