Forgiveness

A king was hunting in the forest. Chasing a deer, went into the woods and found there alone. Began looking for a way out of the woods to take him back to his city and palace.

In his search he met some farmers, but no one recognized or wanted to do something with it. When he began to speak, not even understood what he said or cared.

Wandering in the woods for a long time the king heard that someone fine tune played on a flute. Following the sound, the king met a man and started talking to him. He immediately recognized the king, and spoke with humility and respect.

The king saw that here was a man of the kind he liked, and liked it immediately. When he told the man he hoped to find someone who could lead out of the woods and back to his palace and his throne, the man was happy to do so and the king was pleased with him. He invited him to his palace and gave him a place of honor among his advisers and royal advisers. Then he ordered expensive clothes for his friend, which conformed to his rank.

Some time after the king's friend disobeyed him. The king became angry and ordered him to appear before the royal court for judge. When the day of the trial, the friend of the king took off his robes and put on simple clothes that he wore the day he met the king. He also carried his flute with him and appeared before the royal court very humble and repentant. Before passing sentence, the king asked if he had any request to make.

"Allow me, Your Majesty, touching a melody on my flute," asked the defendant, and his request was accepted.

He played the beautiful melody he had played the day they had met the king for the first time. The king remembered well. Once such a happy reunion came to his mind, when the stranger had become so happy and the king had led him out of the woods and back to his palace, the king forgave his friend and took it back with his grace and Please.

Sometimes it's hard to grant forgiveness. But the memory of many happy moments in pleasant circumstances make us less severe.
