Sometimes, an old story could be so meaningful that people can learn a lot from it. There were once three sons of a wealthy businessman. Whenever they met, the two eldest, who were twins, used to quarrel about which of them should take over his father’s business. The youngest, who was not the least ambitious, took no part in their argument. Before they left home, the father arranged for an adequate income to be provided for each of them but insisted that apart from this they were able to be financially self-supporting.
The elder twin, who had the advantage of good looks and a striking personalitv, took up the stage as a career. He was often unpunctual for his parts and was accordingly unpopular with his fellow actors.
His twin brother considered himself unconventio nal and original. So, he became an artist. But he was not successful either.
Both the twin brothers earned little and so had to live mainly on their father’s support. The youngest son, who had no special artistic talent, worked hard and was awarded a university scholarship. After taking his degree, he was appointed to a teaching post in a grammar school, where he earned enough money to live on. He lived a happy life with his salary and his father’s allowance.
