Once, a kind millionaire was approached by three beggars. The first beggar demanded, “Sir! Please give me five rupees.” The millionaire was taken aback at the man’s impudence. He only gave him two rupees. The second beggar said, “Sir! I have not eaten properly for so many days. Please help me.” “How much do you want?” asked the millionaire. “Whatever you give me!” replied the beggar. So, the millionaire gave him a ten-rupee note. The third beggar said, “I have heard about your noble qualities. Therefore, I have come to see you.” The pleased millionaire gave him food. He asked, “What I can do for you?” The beggar replied, “I do not want anything. You have already shown extraordinary kindness towards me. May God bless you!” But the millionaire, struck by the beggar’s spirit, built a nice house for him and looked after him for the rest of his life!
Moral: Always show right conduct.
