Orphan and Cow
This was a long time ago. An orphan boy lived with his father. He spent every day from morning till evening herding cows. The other children constantly bullied him, sometimes he went hungry, and a mother's affection was foreign to him. One day, after yet another scandal and beatings from his stepfather, the boy hid in the barn, climbed into the hay feeder to warm himself, and suddenly felt the cow begin to lick the tears from his face. No one had ever treated him so gently and tenderly. The previously despairing child, who did not want to live in this world, suddenly realized that the cow had saved him.
A Piece of Cheese or the Moon
It is well known that many consider themselves believers. And one day, an old wise man decided to test how true this was. He invited three so-called believers to his home and asked each of them separately what they saw when looking at the moon during a full moon.
The first said he saw just a piece of cheese. The second replied that he saw the face of his beloved. And only the third sincerely said that it was the spirit of the Almighty.
