[Music] once a successful businessman from the city decided to visit a small village he had a grand plan to build a factory in the village he knew it would be a long journey but he was confident that it would be worth the effort as he traveled he reached a point where he had to make a choice he had two options one where was a long road around the village which would take him about 30 minutes the other option was much shorter a 20-minute boat ride across a river that would get him there quickly feeling the
pressure of time he chose the boat ride the boat was small and there was just one man at the helm paddling slowly the businessman sat quietly thinking about his plans after a while the business man asked The Boatman do you know who's sitting in your boat The Boatman replied with a smile no I don't know who are you curious the businessman asked aren't you concerned don't you know who am I the Boatman answered shily I don't know anything about that sir I never went to school my father passed away when I was young and I
had to work to support my family I've been working since I was a child and that's why I never had a chance to learn how to read or write the businessman feeling a little Superior chuckled you don't even know how to read or write what kind of life is that he said with a tone of judgment he thought to himself this man's life must be so wasted but The Boatman didn't react to his words he just nodded politely after some time the businessman spoke again pointing to the land ahead you see that land over there
we'll soon be setting up a large Factory there and our brand will sell bottled water all over the city The Boatman looked confused bottled water what's that he asked the businessman a bit irritated replied water bottles you must have seen them in the shops in the city how could you not know what they are haven't you ever left this Village The Boatman with a gentle smile replied no sir I've never left this Village I don't even know what the city is like the businessman frustrated scoffed you've never been to the city what kind of life
is that but as he said those words the boat suddenly hit something and started sinking the businessman was shocked as the Water started f filling the boat quickly the river was deep and the shore was Far Away The Boatman who had been calm all along suddenly looked serious he turned to the businessman and asked do you know how to swim the businessman replied no I don't know how to swim The Boatman with a half smile said you don't even know how to swim what kind of life is that the businessman's heart sank he realized how
foolish he had been he had judged The Boatman without understanding his life desperate the businessman pleaded please save me I'll do anything I'll give you anything to save my life The Boatman didn't hesitate he said don't worry just hold on to me tightly and I'll save you the Boatman was not only skilled in swimming but he also knew how to rescue people he swam with the businessman in his arms keeping him afloat until they reached the shore safely the businessman completely shaken realized how wrong he had been his arrogance and his judgment all seemed so
insignificant at that moment as they reached the land the businessman humbled by The Experience looked at The Boatman and said I was wrong I judged you without without knowing anything about your life you are far more skilled and capable than I ever imagined The Boatman smiled gently it's okay sir we all have our paths in life not everyone has the same opportunities or the same knowledge but everyone has their strength the businessman walked away his thoughts filled with a deep understanding he realized that life isn't just about status or education it's about the values we
hold the strength within us and the ability to help others when they need it most moral of the story never judge anyone based on what they don't know or what you think they lack everyone has their unique strengths and struggles we should always be humble and kind remembering that life is not just about education or success but also about compassion empathy and helping each other [Music]
