Once there was a King. He was very compassionate. He was always ready to help others. That is why, his relations with the neighboring states were very good. Then one day, it was King's birthday. On that day, the king woke up and decided to hang out with his soldiers. The king was very happy on his birthday and wanted to help some needy people. With this idea, the king walked out with his soldiers.
On the way, he saw a beggar who was very poor and had no clothes on his body. The king felt very bad for him. He decided to help him. The king went to him and gave him food and clothes. But despite doing so, the king was not satisfied with himself. He decided to gave him a gold coin. The beggar was very happy after getting a gold coin. The beggar thanked the king and started going from there. But suddenly he lost his balance and the gold coin fallen into the drain. The beggar was trying to find that gold coin by putting his hands in the drain. By seeing all this, The king felt very sad. He called the beggar again to him. and gave him another gold coin. The beggar was extremely very happy by getting the another gold coin from the king.
But then again the beggar started finding his lost gold coin by putting his hands in the drain. The king was very surprised by seeing all this. He was thinking, i gave him another gold coin but he was still finding his lost gold coin. The king called the beggar again to him and gave him one more gold coin. Now the beggar had two gold coins but still he was searching the lost coin in the drain. The king was little angry now and he asked the beggar that why are you not happy and satisfied with these two gold coins. The beggar replied, whenever i will get that lost gold coin from the drain, then i will be satisfied.
The same situation always occur in our life. God gives us so many things, but our desires always increase by time. We never get satisfy with the things that god has given to us. We always demand more and more and we lose our precious life in this greed. The king was like god for the beggar. But the greed of the beggar was so much that he did not satisfied with that two gold coins.
