Lessons from wise old man

There is a grandfather who lives in a small village. Although he is poor, everyone feels jealous of him because he has a beautiful white horse.
Even the king coveted his treasure of this, the horse was never seen or in possession of any form of manly and graceful and powerful.

People bid the horse for a high price but the grandfather always refused, saying "this horse is not a horse to me, it is like a person. How can I sell someone ?. He is a friend, and it is not mine how I can sell a friend? "People always bid on the horse, but whatever his grandfather always refused.

Then his white horse disappeared from his cage, then the people came to see his grandfather and said "you stupid old man now your horse is gone, you better sell it to us", and the grandfather said "do not take the conclusions too soon, just tell the horse stall is empty ". Then the villagers answered "your poor grandfather was cursed". The grandfather replied with a smile "do not be prejudiced too soon.

Then fifteen days passed the horse back, it was not lost or stolen, or in robbery he just went into the forest and the horse returned With a dozen herds of gallant horses with him, watched the men come to his grandfather's house and said to him, "forgive us we are wrong, you are not cursed, even the loss of the horse is a blessing". Then the grandfather replied, "How do you know a dozen wild horses bring this blessing to me, you just look at a piece of the story and conclude it but you have to see the whole story, and the whole story does not know". Then people say "this grandfather is really crazy".

A few days later the grandfather's son tried to tame a dozen wild horses unfortunately he stumbled and broke his leg, then people said to the old man, "excuse us parents. It turns out that the wild horses are not a blessing for you, but a disaster ", then the grandfather replied" Where do you know it is a disaster? ", They replied" the grandfather's base is out of his mind, already know the child's leg is broken in say is not a disaster. It's completely insane. "

Two weeks later there was a war in the kingdom. All the youth children went to war, except for the grandfather's son, because he was injured, and a great battle took place, and won by the enemy, many of the citizens of the villagers who had been killed were killed. Then they went to the grandfather and cried, "You are right sir your son's injury is not a disaster it is luck".

Then the grandfather replied with a smile, "who said it was a luck. You start again, just look at some of the stories, maybe your children die fighting and my son does not but do not quickly conclude that the blessing or curse. No one knows what will happen next, nor I, only God knows the end of our story so do not be too quick to conclude ".
The grandfather ended the story.
