A plate of gold inscribed with a message, to be gifted to the most virtuous person as a gift from god was once found in a temple. The priest awarded it thrice to people believed to be virtuous and merciful. Alas! It turned to lead. The poor that thronged the temple were bestowed with gifts by many people expecting to win the gift of God. However none stopped to comfort the poor. Two years later a peasant unaware of the contest arrived at the temple- Moved at the sight of a blind beggar he began to comfort him saying that God would take care of him. The priest summoned the peasant and bestowed the plate- the gift of God to him, the plate never changed to lead. The peasant thanked God as he poured his love and affection on him.
