Decision

Last year I read a book of Paulo Coelho named:"Maktub".

Many of my beliefs had changed since then.

Let me tell you one of the most beautiful stories.


Of course it was in Persian, I translated it.


*****A knight told his friend:"let's go to the mountain where god lives in.I want to prove that God just want us to do something, although he wouldn’t do anything for
helping us."

Another said:"Well, I’ll come to show my faith."

They reached at zenith same night….and they heard a call through darkness.
"Put rocks on earth on the back of your horse."
The knight said:"you see, after this long mountaineering, he wants us to carry heavier load. I won't obey.
"
The second knight obeyed the order of call.
When they reached to the foothills, it
was dawn, and first beams of sun glowed on devout knight's rocks: they were pure diamonds.

The master says:"God's decisions are mysterious, but always to our benefit."****
