Hi friends 🙂,  welcome back to my new blog. Today let we learn to increase our value through a small story. Please read till end… you will have some changes in you.

Once upon a time a man went to buddha and asked what is the value of human life. Buddha smiled at him and gave him one shining stone and said,  first you go and find the worth of this stone , go to different shops in market and tell them you want to sell it ,but remember don't  sell it anywhere. The man got puzzled at his reply ,but with saying anything he took it to market. 

First he went to orange seller and asked the worth of the stone, orange seller after viewing replied that I will give you  dozen of oranges for this stone. The man took back the stone and went to the vegetable vendor and asks the same question , he looked it and told him to take the sack of potatoes for this stone. 

The man was not satisfied with those answers and he went to the goldsmith , showed his stone. Goldsmith amazed by the shine of the stone and said him to sell it for 1 lakh gold coins. The man got suprised but he refused that offer. Again Goldsmith ready to pay him for 5 lakh gold coins. The man said to him that his teacher told him not to sell this stone.

  Finally he went to diamond merchant and showed the stone. Diamond merchant could not belive it and he got mesimerised by the beauty of the stone. He first placed it on the red velvet cloth and asked the man , that where did you got this precious  stone . 

Then he said that even after selling the whole world  we cannot estimate the worth of this ruby stone, this is priceless and invaluable. The man got puzzled with the experience from different people. He went back to buddha and narrated the story to him and asked him now  atleast the worth of the human life. You see my friend each one quoted each things for this stone. Finally diamond merchant said the stone is invaluable.

 The  Same is true for human life.  Infact you are a gem, but people around you will value you according to their status knowledge and capacity. But don't worry as this word will aslo identify and find your true value one day. 

If we see in our lives we will find that often people do not know they are on birth. And thats why they settle for far less than they deserve the value of your life depends on where you place yourself. People will understand your value as much as you will value yourself. If you underestimate your worth then you will get less from this world. And if you feel yourself worthy then you will get more out of this world. 

Most of the people just allow anyone to evaluate their worth. But people who know their true value will just refuse to accept the opinions of others , they refuse to be defined  by anyone because they know that their value is set by themselves not someone else opinions of what they are worth. 

So friends don't let people  put a  price on you and you set your own price……

    Thanks for Reading 🙂
