A LESSON TAUGHT BY THE COCONUT

Once a man named Simon was walking to the market to buy some coconuts.

He reached the market and asks how much the coconut was? The seller said it was 10 rupees. 

Simon thought for a second. He said it was, too much. So, the seller said to him that after turning left, then right, and walking straight he will find a coconut seller and he sell at cheap rates.

Simon walked the way the seller said.

He reached the Market. There were many people to buy the coconuts, as they were the cheap ones. He asked the seller the price and he told it  was just 5 rupees only.

Simon said again that it was a lot.

So, the seller said him to climb the coconut tree a few blocks away, and if he want He can take it for free.

He thinks it was the best idea. He walked to the coconut tree but doesn't know how to climb a tree.

But he tried his best when he reach the top, his leg slipped and fall down. 

Thankfully, nothing happened. But, unfortunately, his leg was broken and he went to the Hospital and spent ₹ 2000 on it.

He realized how foolish and stingy he was that if he has spent just ₹10 for that coconut. He will not be wasting his 2000 rupees.

In this way, we can understand that we should not be so mean or stingy.
