Caleb: The diamond that got lost from my safe
There was a very rich man… He had a diamond in his safe. This man had been flying over the ocean with his most prized possession in his safe. Then, a man from the crew had asked him to check if it was there. He opened the safe… He held the diamond up to show it was safe. Suddenly a bird flew in and grabbed the diamond. It was too heavy for it to carry so it dropped it in the ocean. The man went berserk… That diamond was worth billions! After years and years of searching… He lost all his wealth. The man lost everything, but he ceased to relent in his searching… He had lost his marriage, his children… His everything. One day… The man came across a small island. He was tired… Hungry… Severely dehydrated and almost on the brink of death. Then, he found a village. These villagers took care of him, bringing him back to health till he regained consciousness. He soon began to wake and opened his eyes to the person who had taken care of him. It was the most gorgeous woman he had ever seen and upon her neck, there was a familiar sight… His diamond. Now how does he take away from the person who gave him his life back? He would have died had she not seen to him for as long as she did. She fed him and put soothing balms on him, bathed him… Everything. Now how does he repay that kindness with that thirst for wealth? He cannot. He lost all the wealth in the world… He lost everything, but he had learned the most important lesson of all… What is earned must be given.
