Queen's Precious Necklace



Once upon a time in a Kingdom, Queen along with her friends was playing and enjoying in Royal swimming pool. Then only a crow came and flew away along with Queen’s precious diamond necklace which was kept beside the Royal swimming pool.

When Queen came outside the Royal swimming pool she saw her jewels and clothes; didn’t find her precious diamond necklace. Getting upset with this incident she informed King about losing the necklace.

King announced this news in the Kingdom- Whoever will find Queen’s precious diamond necklace will be awarded with one thousand golden coins.

After searching so many days, the necklace was not found.

One day, King along with his five soldiers went to jungle for hunting. After searching for prey when King got tired then he told one of his soldiers to bring water from nearby river.

As soon soldier reached nearby river, he saw that Queen’s diamond necklace was floating in river; seeing this there was no limit of his happiness. As soon soldier tried to get that necklace, it got lost in river.

Soldier thought- If I myself found that necklace then King would give me reward.

By thinking this he jumped into the river.

After little moment second soldier came in search of first soldier; first soldier told him whole narration, second soldier also in greed of reward jumped into river to search for necklace.

In same way, another three soldiers also came one-by-one and jumped into river to search for necklace.

After some time when no soldier returned back, King in anger walked towards river. There he saw that all five soldiers were swimming in river.

King asked the reason of their swimming; all five soldiers described the same reason.

Then King’s eye fell on the tree along the river, and King said with a smile- Idiots! The necklace which you are searching inside the river I have found while standing here, so no one will get reward.

Soldiers asked- Lord! Necklace is in the river then how have you find it?

By pointing towards the tree, King said- See, the necklace is hanging on tree and to which you are searching inside the river is its shadow.

Indeed, the crow had taken the Queen’s precious diamond necklace but when Crow felt it worthless, it (Crow) leaved the necklace on tree which shadow was floating in the river.

Dear friends, Before doing any work confirm that for which satisfaction you are working will give you real pleasure by fulfilling your wish, because sometimes destination of our happiness is elsewhere and we find happiness elsewhere. Thank You.
