THE WISE MAID 📖 A Short Moral Story

[MysteRy]

One day, a queen decided to hold a game among her four maids. She told them,

"The four of you will play a game - some sort of a wonderful game. It is called WWFEF. Whoever wins the game will be rewarded with a glorious dress, some expensive jewelries and a huge amount of money. Are you ready?"

The four maids were excited to play the game. As they got ready, the queen said,
"Before the game starts, I want you to eat plenty of food as it will be a challenging game. Make sure you fill your stomachs and be confident."

The maids were quickly ushered to a table loaded with delicious food and drinks. They all ate heartily to satisfaction. When they had finished eating, the queen told them,

"Shall we start the game now? Like I said before, the game is called WWFEF... it means 'Who Will Finish Eating First'. You will each be served a bowl of food, and whoever finishes her food first wins the game."

The maids were completely shocked and stunned. They became filled with confusion as they had already filled their stomachs. There was no possiblity of them taking on another food. They knew they had no chance of winning.

At that moment, the maids were each served a bowl of food. However, one of them surprisingly rushed through her own food like a hungry lion. She ate hurriedly and finished in a few minutes. She won the game.

The queen looked at her with amazement and asked,
"How come you were able to finish your own food despite having eaten before?"

The maid smiled and said,
"I didn't eat the first food served. I sensed something odd about it, so I poured mine on the floor. To be honest, I always trust my instincts."

The queen remarked,
"You are such a wise young woman!"

MORAL LESSON
Follow your instincts. That's where true wisdom manifest.
