The Greatest Lesson Ever Learned

There were two long best friends. One was as wealthy as any man could ever imagine, the other was well-off with being a carpenter.

One day, the carpenter had lost his inspiration of making houses. His friend saw the sadness in his eyes and decided to draw an imperfect house. He gave it to the carpenter and challenged him to make this perfect. A perfect house for one man to ease his loneliness.

Instead of feeling better, it had gotten worse. The carpenter thought... He strives living as a carpenter and gets no satisfaction out of it. Now, his friend wants him to build a house to ease loneliness. How could his friend be lonely thus he has every wealth a man could be eager so much. From that moment on, he saw life is so unfair.

The carpenter did make it look perfect but the materials he used was of low quality. He thought his friend could have the dream house he asked from the carpenter but soon enough his friend would experience losing it. "Now, when that time comes, let's see what you could say about loneliness", he thought.

When all was done, finally shown it to his friend. It was so amazing. After awhile the carpenter spoke,"Well my friend, I made this perfect so you would forget about the loneliness you feel."

His friend responded, "That's great my friend. I know I could trust you. We've been friends for a long time and after all of that, I'm giving you this house which you made and you deserve."

A tear fell down from the carpenter's face and he doesn't know what are those for.


In all of our actions, we must do what is right. You may never know you might live in the reputation you have created.
