Accept the Other with dignity.....Know the worth of the Other....

There is a story of a maid who worked for a King...she would take a small son along with her to the Palace....the boy would spend time playing all over the palace without being disturbed and the mother would just carry on working.....One day while playing in the palace the boy found or discovered a small precious Diamond...it was shining and attractive...so the child ran in haste to his mother and handed over to her...saying that he found in a corner of the palace while playing...

The maid servant was a clever woman...she feels that she cannot take the diamond out of the palace due to high security....and she convinces the child saying that it was not a diamond or precious stone...it was a piece of glass....and she manages to throw the diamond out of the window...When she finishes her work in the evening she does not forget to carry out the diamond thrown out of the window...she carries home...

The next day morning she carries the diamond to a goldsmith who immediately concludes that she might have found it somewhere and convinces her that it was a piece of glass....throws it in order to be picked up as early as possible......and he goes to the expert in recognizing a diamond.....
The expert at first sight recognizes the value and worth of the stone...a real diamond...very expensive and would bring him a fortune....but he announces in greed that it was a piece of glass and throws it....the diamond moment it falls on the hard ground....breaks into small pieces....a passerby sees all this drama and comes to the diamond and enquires ...two people threw you earlier but did not break down into pieces...but when a real expert threw you...you are into pieces...

The Diamond said that when the maidservant  and goldsmith threw me they did not know my value and preciousness ....The expert knew my worth still he threw me on the ground....this attack I could not accept and stomach it...that is why I broke into pieces...Some people who know your worth still they throw it out....dont recognize you....keep harming you...
