Stone Craftman

Once upon a time there lived a stone craftsman.. Every day he went into the mountains to break the stone.. While working, he was humming happily.. Although he is poor, he does not want more than he had, so he does not worry about the world..
One day he was summoned to work at the house of a nobleman.. When looking at the beauty of the nobleman house, for the first time in her life he experienced the pain that arises from a desire, envy.. He said as he sighed, "I wish I was rich, do not have to work hard to make a living by sweating as it is today.."

What a surprise when he heard a voice, "Your wish is granted!! From now on anything that you have the desire will be granted!!" He did not know the meaning of those words until he returned to his shack, and found a beautiful big house like the dream.. He forget his job as a stone craftsman and enjoy life as a rich man..

One day, he saw the King passed by, accompanied by guards, slaves as well as maids which surrounds.. He thought, "I want to be king, sits in a magnificent royal cart.." His wish was immediately granted, he immediately sat down in a magnificent royal cart, with guards and maids..

every day he going around with royal cart, someday the weather was very hot inside the cart.. He looked out and admire the power of the sun which radiates heat to the earth. "I want to be the sun!!" he said.. Once again his wish granted.. He became the sun radiates heat into the universe..

In the rainy season, the sun trying to break through a cloudy sky but with no luck.. So he changed himself into the clouds and glorious in its strength able to withstand the heat of the sun..

Until he became rain and met with a strong rock stone..
"What's this.. Thats rock stone stronger than me? Then I want to be a rock stone"
So there, he stood up straight towering mountainside as a rock stone..

Several days latter, he heard a strange voice broke beneath him.. He saw a man working emboss chunk of stone..

Eventually he returned to become a a human, back became stone craftsman, with a heart full of gratitude as he felt happy with what he had..
