>ONCE UPON A TIME...................
>
>
>
>There was a rich King who had 4 wives.
>
>
>
>
>*He loved the 4th wife the most and adorned her with rich robes and
>treated
>her to the finest of delicacies. He gave her nothing but the best. *
>
>
>
>*He also loved the 3rd wife very much and was always showing her off to
>neighboring kingdoms. However, he feared that one day
>she would leave him for another. *
>
>
>*He also loved his 2nd wife. She was his confidante and was always kind,
>considerate and patient with him. Whenever the King faced a problem, he
>could confide in her to help him get through the difficult times. *
>
>*The King's 1st wife was a very loyal partner and had made great
>contributions in maintaining his wealth and kingdom. However, he did not
>love the first wife and although she loved him deeply, he hardly took
>notice
>of her. *
>
>< *One day, the King fell ill and he knew his time was short. *
>
>* He thought of his luxurious life and pondered, "I now have 4 wives
>with
>me, but when I die, I'll be all alone. *
>
>* Thus, he asked the 4th wife, "I have loved you the most, endowed you
>with
>the finest clothing and showered great care over you. Now that I'm
>dying,
>will you follow me and keep me company?" *
>
>*"No way!" replied the 4th wife and she walked away without another
>word. *
>
>
>*Her answer cut like a sharp knife right into his heart. *
>
>
>*The sad King then asked the 3rd wife, "I have loved you all my life.
>Now
>that I'm dying, will you follow me and keep me company?" *
>
>* "No!" replied the 3rd wife. "Life is too good!
>When you die, I'm going to remarry!" *
>
>*His heart sank and turned cold. *
>
>
>*He then asked the 2nd wife, "I have always turned to you for help and
>you've always been there for me. When I die, will you follow me
>and keep me company?" *
>
>
>* "I'm sorry, I can't help you out this time!" replied the 2nd wife. "At
>the
>very most, I can only send you to your grave." *
>
>
>*Her answer came like a bolt of thunder and the King was devastated. *
>
>
>*Then a voice called out: *
>
>*"I'll leave with you and follow you no matter where you go." The King
>looked up and there was his first wife. She was so skinny,
>she suffered from malnutrition. *
>
>*Greatly grieved, the King said, "I should have taken much better care
>of
>you when I had the chance!" *
>
>
>
>In Truth, we all have 4 wives in our lives ...
>
>*Our 4th wife is our body. No matter how much time and effort we lavish
>in
>making it look good, it'll leave us when we die. *
>
>
>
>*Our 3rd wife is our possessions, status and wealth.
>When we die, it will all go to others. *
>
>
>*Our 2nd wife is our family and friends. No matter how much they have
>been
>there for us, the furthest they can stay by us is up to the grave. *
>
>
>*And our 1st wife is our Soul, *
>
>
>*often neglected in pursuit of wealth, power and pleasures of the ego.
>However, our Soul is the only thing that will follow us wherever we go.
>*
