Question

Right on time the next day, everyone gathered at the gate of the garden. At the time

king had told them, the guards opened the gates and handed out the sacks. Men, women and

children started roaming around the beautiful garden. They spotted juicy apples and plump

mangoes hanging from the trees. They picked these till they saw ripe pomegranates bursting

with juice, grapes and colourful flowers no one had seen before. People went about picking

whatever they wished for and filling their sacks with them.

But as they walked further into the garden it become wilder, more like a forest, and

there they saw trees laden with apples of gold, mangoes of silver and flowers studded with

gems and jewels!

Everyone emptied their sacks of the fruits they had collected earlier and flowers. They

all forgot that they had said they had more than enough for their needs at home. Greed took

over their minds and all they could think about was adding more and more valuables to their

sacks. The fruits which they had picked earlier, and had tasted to be as sweet as nectar, now

lay in heaps around the garden-forgotten and left to rot.

Then with their sacks filled right to the top, the citizens made their way to the rear gate

of the garden where the king was waiting. But what was this? To their astonishment they

found a raging stream stopping their way. Water gushed down from behind some rocks and

rushed over pebbles and big boulders through the garden. The stream was narrow, but the

current was strong. There were no boats to take the people across. Clearly, the only way was

to swim. But how could they swim with such heavy sacks filled with gold and silver fruits

and flowers?

The people stood by the stream for a long time scratching their heads. Then one young

man did what they all knew needed too done. He simply abandoned his sack by the stream,

waded into the water, then swam across to the other side. Slowly the others to followed suit.

Sadly, some wailing in distress, they left their sacks filled with what they had thought was the

riches of a lifetime, and dived into the stream. Then they walked up to their king – wet,

unhappy and angry​
