Is the servant clever or foolish?
This is an old story. It was first told long ago. A rich man wanted to make a journey to another town. He was a businessman. He wanted to take things to sell. He also wanted to take some gold to buy some things with. He decided to take ten servants with him. They would carry the things to sell and the food to eat on the journey.
He was a kind man. He said to one of his servants, “You are the smallest, the thinnest and the weakest of all my servants. You cannot carry a heavy load. You may choose the lightest load to carry.”
The servant thanked his master. He pointed to the biggest load. This was bread for them to eat on the journey.
“You are foolish,” said his master. “That is the biggest and heaviest load.” But the servant lifted up the load cheerfully and the journey began. They walked for four hours. Then they stopped for a rest. They all ate some of the bread. Then there was less bread for the servant to carry. The servant’s load grew smaller and lighter every day. At the end of the journey, the smallest servant had nothing to carry.
