Five wise men got lost in the forest.
The first one said, I will go left – my intuition tells me that.
The second one said; I will go right – there is a reason why right comes from
the word rightness.
The third one said; I will go back – we came from there, it means I will go
out from the forest.
The fourth one said; I will go straight – we should move forward, the forest
will end and something new will open.
The fifth said; You are all wrong. There is a better solution. Wait for
me.
He found the tallest tree and climbed into it. While he was
climbing everyone else scattered towards their own sides. From above he saw
where they should go to leave the forest faster. Now he could even see in what
order the other wise men will reach the end of the forest.
He climbed higher
and saw the shortest way. He understood the problem and found the best
solution! He knew that he did everything right. And the others were wrong. They
were stubborn and they didn't listen to him. He was the real Wise Man!
But he was wrong.
Everyone was right. The one who went left, found himself in
the thicket. He had to starve and fight with wild animals. But he learned how
to survive in the forest; he became a part of the forest and could teach others
the same.
The one, who went right, met thieves. They took everything
from him and made him steal with them. But after some time, he had woken up
something in those thieves that they have forgotten – humanity and compassion.
The remorse was so strong in some of them, that after his death they also
became the wise men.
The one who went back, made a pathway through the forest,
which soon became a road for those who wanted to walk in the forest without
being afraid of getting lost.
The one who went straight, became a pioneer. He visited the
places where no one else was and opened wonderful new possibilities for people,
amazing healing plants and magnificent animals.
