Narrow Yurt or Spacious? (A Parable)

Is the yurt cramped or spacious? (Parable)


A very sad young man approached the wise elder.
- Help me, elder. I have a yurt, but my family is very cramped in it. Besides me, my wife and children, my grandfather and grandmother also live with us. Therefore, we live in terrible tightness. Please give me advice on how to expand the yurt?
- Do you have the opportunity to build a new yurt and live separately from the elders?
- No, I cannot leave my grandfather and grandmother alone. They have no one else but me.
- Alright, do you have any poor friends?
- Yes, I have a friend who recently got married but has not yet acquired his own yurt. He is currently living with his parents.
- Then invite him to stay at your home. And come back to me in a month.
A month passed, and the young man came to the wise elder again. It was clear that the young man was tormented by problems - he looked gloomier than a cloud.
- Help me, elder. Ever since my friend moved in with his wife and their newborn child, my life has turned into hell. There is no peace in the house, neither day nor night, and there is nowhere to turn around. I no longer have the strength to endure this situation.
- Alright. Then return your friend to his parents, believe me, soon you will be amazed at how spacious your yurt will turn out to be.
