Story:

There was once a lazy man living in a house with spider webs on the walls and mice running around. People avoided visiting him and the man was unhappy every day.

One day, the man dropped in on a wise old man and asked for advice about changing his life. The old man gave him a beautiful pot and said,“This pot will bring you happiness.” “Why do I need a pot?” the man thought. Although surprised, he took it home.

“It’s not proper for something so beautiful to be empty,” later he realized. So, he put some wild flowers into it, making it even more beautiful. “It’s not good for such a beautiful thing to stand next to spider webs.” So, he started to do some cleaning, and his house immediately turned into a comfortable place. The man cheered up. From then on, he worked hard and his life has been improved.
