Interesting story of a king and a gardener



 Once upon a time there was a king.He was very fond of trees and plants.

He built a huge garden in the courtyard of his palace.He planted many fruit, flower and vegetable trees in that garden.

He then hired a gardener to take care of the garden.The king gave the gardener a place to live near the garden with his family.

The gardener looked after the garden day and night and would get up early in the morning to present before the king with a basket of fresh flowers.

Once in the king's garden, pomegranate, guava, coconut and grapes grew veryy well.

The gardener thought that why not present these fresh fruits to the king today.But he could not understand which fruit to offer to the king.After thinking for a long time, he filled the grapes in the basket and went to the king.

When the gardener reached the king, he saw that the king was engrossed in some thoughts.The gardener placed the basket of grapes in front of the king and himself went to the other side and sat down.

The king, immersed in thoughts, ate one grape himself and threw the other towards the gardener sitting in front.The grapes thrown by the king towards the gardener seemed to hit the gardener's head.

When the grapes thrown by the king hit the gardener's head, he would say thank you God.

After a while, when the king's attention was disturbed, then the words spoken by the gardener in his ear, God thank you.Then the king realized his mistake and asked the gardener why you were saying that God is your thanks.While grapes were falling on you.

The gardener told the king that apart from grapes, pomegranate, coconut and guava had grown very well in the garden.What would have happened to me today if I had brought any fruit other than grapes to present to you?

The gardener further said to the king that I would not be hurt by grapes, but if there were any other fruits from those fruits, then what would have happened to my head?

The king was very ashamed of his mistake but at the same time he also thanked God.
