Hi all,You might hear of Cinderalla , The Sleeping Beauty , or The Charming prince . But what about "Joha"?Joha is an imaginary character in some Arabic stories like the one I want to share . He isn't a prince, nor he is a an evil man, yet he is a simple man.Now the story :Joha bought a donkey to ride upon to travel everywhere he wants. One day, he rode uponthe donkey, and his son walked beside the donkey , holding some reins with him.When they passed a small group of people. The people criticised Joha "How come you are so heartless,Joha? How can you ride upon the donkey while letting your little son walking?"When Joha heard their words ,he climbed down and lifted his son onto the donkey's back.They continued on their journey. When they passed a small group of people, the people said "How is an old man walks while his son on the back of the donkey ?,this is not right"So Joha climbed upon the donkey with his son . When they passed another group of people,The people cried out to Joha "can't you see that you are both too heavy and your donkey can't support your weight.!""It is best that we both get off the donkey and walk" Joha said.When Joha and his son arrived at a market ,many people laughed and said :"What a fool!!you own a donkey ,why don't you ride upon it ?"Joha was not angry and he realized that it isn't possible to please everyone.And this what all we should do .I hope you guys enjoyed the story.Amal
